I've just had a chance to see the sample. I had to watch it a few times because i just couldn't believe that this was actually GOUT sourced. Yes, some of the jaggies and problems inherent with the GOUT are still there, but these are a LOT less noticeable and have been greatly reduced. The colours look great. Seeing colours, especially blues, that were thought lost from the faded GOUT, finally make an appearance was outstanding.
I did notice the reds bleeding somewhat, but that has been mentioned that is a problem with the encode.
My only criticism would be that the reds are slightly too saturated. If you could knock the saturation of the reds back slightly, this would be prefect. I just popped it into after effects and reduced the just red saturation slightly:

It's such a sad state of affairs when people with a PC at home can do a much better job than the half assed effort of Lucasfilm. Its sad to think that there are so many Star Wars fans that truly think that the 2004 DVD/ Blu-ray versions are how Star Wars should look colourwise. These fans should be forced to watch this version as THIS is how Star Wars should look.
Great job guys.
