It is the same as dye-transfer, which is explained in some detail in MBJ's posts above. Basically, it's a much more stable and true-colour way of making a film print than the standard (cheaper) release prints. I've seen some dye-sub prints compared to regular prints of the same movies and they blow them away.

That i doubt because GL is also a film historian and he would never do that even if it wasn't his vision. the original were restored and copied then the copies were made into the SE's.

I wish you were right, DR, but unfortunately it's known that the original negative was used to make the '97 SE.
