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 . . .

A true hero working in the shadows, that's awesome! and will be very useful. :) Good to hear the sequels aren't that problematic.

It is far from perfect I know, but the lack of smearing really stands out and I like that it reminds me of watching my VHS without looking like total crap. And the specs of dirt and scratches really make it look like film to me even if its an older transfer as oposed to the over processed mess on the GOUT.

I fully agree with you. I just tend to overly focusing on what is wrong with it instead of enjoying it for what it is.
