Garbage mattes with be magnified Unless they go in and digitally correct them.

the Color timing botched in 2004.

the sound mix botched in 2004, being redone this may be considered a fix to a deliberate creative decision.

Normally I would say "It's still the Special Edition, so who cares?" but for the sake of people who will be handing over their money for this LFL will hopefully correct all those problems.

Dear Most Esteemed OT.com Member The Honourable TV's Frink,

Thank you for reading and considering my request.  I would be most appreciative and forever in your debt if you could answer the following query:

So is it actually confirmed that they will be using the same 2004 masters for blu?

Thanks for your selfless contributions to the forum in general and for your help to me specifically.  Oh, and you are more handsome than anyone on the forum, save Ric Olie.  Though I could never repay your kindness properly, I will spend my remaining time on this forum trying to do just that.

Forever your servant, as 'tis demanded by the Gods,
Harmy

Of course not!  Everyone is jumping to conclusions as usual.*

Hey, I don't remember asking you personaly, so how about you mind your own business and shove off...

And you deserve a medal? Yeah, right, you can get together with Chewie and bitch about how it feels...

*EDIT: Just to be safe

Sure it's still just the SE but if it was a new transfer, which would be faithful to the original photography in colour, brightness, contrast and depth it would at least be a great source for future fanedits and preservations.
