So do you guys think the Blu release is correct or not

Personally, I'm holding off the blu-ray 'Anthology' set for now, as I'm only interested in the additional extras at this point, which is why I'm interested to hear from anyone that can confirm if it's ALIEN 'Theatrical' cut is just the same 'Director's Cut'-colouration as it was on the 'Quadrilogy' dvd set, or not.

I guess if it is (regardless of whether the Brett/Jonesy scene is different or not), then it's certainly 'correct' in Ridley's view now. Which is fair enough, but then I didn't like the look of his colour-tampering for BLADE RUNNER:The Final Cut either, compared to how BLADE RUNNER originally looked! And why I'm disappointed Cameron seems to have gone the same way with ALIENS now...

Anyway, here's just a few examples of some screenshots which give an idea of how dark and different some scenes look. Although these can't give as good an idea as comparing the different dvds on a tv, they should give a rough idea overall. The red in the 'chestburster' scene looks more pink than the previous blood-red dvd release for instance, and some scenes have a more 'washed-out' colour to them now too. It varies...
