He may do the highest level of grain removal on the OOT like he did with the 2004 SE - something I wouldn't like to see either.
Yeah, even John Lowry admitted that they went overboard when they removed grain during their "Citizen Kane" restoration. I'm not crazy about those computer algorithm-based "restorations". They're too imprecise. Nothing can substitute for a slow, careful, hands-on restoration that only a human being can provide.Did you know that camera-shake (while FILMING onto the original negatives) was removed for the 2004 DVD's - they might even try to remove the camera-shake when doing a full OOT restoration (it may not sound like a big deal to you - but to me who believes restoration is about bringing the film back to it's original condition - not surpassing it, it is).
