Thank you very much for this preservation. I havn't had chance to watch the whole thing yet but skipping through this looks a much crisper/detailed and colour-rich capture to the Starkiller preservation. Because of those qualities in combination theres a much better depth of field. For example in this frame you get a much better sense of the length of the corridor (I think) whereas other captures look much flatter

You've also miraculously managed to salvage a nice 'texture' from the VHS (I don't really know how to describe it properly other than to say it looks less 'blobby' and less 'in the way' than VHS usually looks). Great salvage job!

One (possibly) unique thing about this print is it seems to be one of the few that is still holding on to a fraction of the deep blues and greens which seem to have been originally there in this scene:
