Manual IVTC is always preferred if you want quality but yes, I have heard that those should be a real bitch to work on due to the often change in pulldown pattern
JSC ANH is that way, with the pattern often changing mid-reel.
However in my experience both sequels aren't like that at all. They're quite straightforward.
Pulldown pattern changes only at reel changeovers.
Few months ago I developed .AVS scripts for IVTC'ing both sequels, starting from the hard-encoded Dark-Sega .VOB sources.
I know I know, it sounds like a big waste of time like polishing a turd, but there was a reasoning behind it. Those scripts were meant to be ported for Arnie.d's X9 captures . . .
