Hey thanks again! I wasnt sure if people would want to do this. Well the ITV version is the clear challenger here for me. Its got that slight grey-brown-greenness over it but otherwise its as good (maybe that 'burnished' thing undercuts the lifelikeness a bit=but not much). 1982 and 1987: too pink. I expected more of the UK 1982 tape it looked a bit pink in the frames you posted in your Pan and Scan thread but I thought the first tape wouldnt have looked so washed out right out the gate (compared to say Empire).
Do you know anything about the Krieg der Sterne Vhs - if its the same or not?
