Nicely put, msycamore. That's what I was saying all along, the 2004 transfer is such a horrible mess that no single setting is going to fix it, especially the brightness and also that there's a huge difference between blue and cyan (which is what I was trying to show in my screencaps).

And yeah, I guess this would be classified as a fan edit. The reason I didn't put the PDE into the fanedit section was that I was recreating the original cut, albeit with some CGI effects left in, so I felt it fell under the category of "other fan projects" rather than "fan-edits." But since you'll be keeping stuff like the new Wampa scene and I presume the new CGI cloud city introduction but not for example the shots of Vader going back to his shuttle, you'll be making an all new cut of the film, and thus basically a fanedit. But I guess it is really the way you feel about it that is really important in deciding whether it's more a fan edit or a preservation effort :-)
