A lot of these changes sound great. I think one of the biggest things is how much the lights on the wall glow in SC 38 vs the original movie, so if the luminance can match rather than being so exaggerated it could really work.
For OG footage, are you using the 2011 or 2019 versions? I think using the 2019 versions will help them blend together better.
Trying to just reduce blue where over powering so walls can be more grey. Adywan’s 1080P edit of ANH is what i’m using as my base for ANH-X, because it did a good job with the blue reduction so goal…his was probably 2019? I would imagine since I think the 2011 was more blue correct? Anyway I think it’ll be better with color fixes
