I like the orange look for Jakku, but the second option looks better for the non-Jakku scenes.

I understand why. I will say again that the blue film look is my favorite, and you can see part of that look in the hybrid grade during the non-Jakku scenes (In fact, I’m going for the blue look on both VIII and IX, but that’s a different topic). I’m just not sure it works well for a movie like TFA, which arguably has the warmest color palette in the sequel trilogy. I also want to honor Artan42’s suggestion on keeping Jakku orange to distinguish it from Tattooine and Geonosis, and I feel like the blue look is getting in the way of making Jakku look right (unless reddish tinted sand counts as orange).

I’m entertaining the idea of lessening the blue look so that the orange look is dominant, but I worry that it might look like an inferior version of the orange look. I suppose I’ll give it a try, but I wouldn’t expect too much from it.
