Interestingly the full 4K 35mm scan of Toy Story from the UK was leaked last month and is much higher in quality than those DVD releases.

I would say I would agree with you, but there are parts where it felt like Trist just borderline used a variable AVC bitrate from the max of 50mbps to 1bps, hence blocky parts like the flash in the Disney logo or the movement of the Pizza Planet truck as it arrives at the restaurant.

Speaking of which, 90sFavKi and I were thinking of reviving the project, though I already did do the color grading to match the LD (as it was close to the opening night screening bootleg), though since his friends did approve it, and I haven’t received a word from him about the potential updates, I still need to wait for the OT mods to come in and see if they are okay with. Though because of the crappy variable bitrate, and since I think Trist really wants to stay away from the project, I don’t know if I will ever get the raw scans so I can do a perfect render of it, so a regrade and the UTB sync of the leaked 4K 35mm scan is for the best.
