Just a silly question:

I think that Adywan did a color correction of the movie based on the 2004 DVD. I mean he changed the 2004 colors with filters and things like that, right?

He did a GREAT job, but now that we almost have a 16mm restored dvd version (thanks to Puggo), can't we use the colors of the Puggo grande on 95% of the scenes of Star Wars revisted? Perhaps even on a HD version of SW?

....

Tell me if it's stupid or not.

I won't say it's stupid, because it's actually rather clever.  Unfortunately, the 16mm film was quite comprimised (faded, red-shifted, etc.) and would make a lousy source for color-correcting anything.
