"The DC timing may not be 100% perfect, because no transfer ever can be for an older film simply because the colours will no longer exist in any reliable way, and perhaps the DC is a bit punchier than it should be, but its closer to watching something from the original negative than any previous version of the film, including original prints"

You also said to Imperial Fighter:

 I understood what you are saying. But you are mistaken.

It seems to me that that is too strong a statement to make when you concede in the same post that it is impossible to be 100% perfect and therefore 100% sure.  I agree with everything you said about the Blu-rays, and I am sure that they are fantastic, but if the color timing does differ I can understand how he feels if he prefers the old transfers, inaccurate though they are in some respects.  I just think that one can see both sides -- that's all.
