Another example of a filter which, in my opinion, improves almost every shot it's applied to. This one mutes certain hues (in this case cyan), but hopefully avoids the "Pleasantville" effect which ANH:R suffers from. It was intended to be used only on Death Star interior shots, where the walls fairly glow in some scenes, but I also like the way it tones down Tattooine's sky, making it look a little less idyllic. It doesn't always work (it tones down Ben's lightsabre, for example), and I may yet reduce it's effect (these shots are at 75%), because to be honest it's too simplistic to say that "white" objects should have equal RGB values on screen.
