ImperialFighter said: Not sure if there's a misunderstanding here, but I'll try again - the 'Theatrical' cut of ALIEN on the 'Quadrilogy' dvd set is identically colour-timed throughout to match the 'darkened'/'stylized' look of the newly colour-timed 'Director's Cut'...compared to the 'Theatrical' cut of ALIEN in it's previous releases.

Whether due to 'branching' or being deliberately done to match the new look of the 'Director's Cut or not, I don't know, but either way, this new colourization is very different to how the 'Theatrical' cut always used to look.

I agree with ImperialFighter. The color timing of the DVD release on the Quadrilogy set (=Fox, CE) is different from the color timing of previous DVD releases. While I actually like it, I understand why ImperialFighter does not. This might be because of the branching, but I have no doubt that the change in color timing is deliberate. Scott tends to do this for remastered versions of his films.
