So you’re saying people don’t “agree” with the blu-rays “feel” so to speak? Due to excessive editing to colors contrast/brightness and that this was done heavily on a frame by frame basis (or even pixel by pixel as you mention)

I was aware of harmy’s project which is why I brought up the de-specialized versions (I messed up and typed de-edit)

The reason I brought up the backup/archiving thing was that whilst I feel that this will be great for having a digital version of the movie to compare changes etc to. It’s not neccesairly the best version to watch in terms of quality. (on acount of the 35mm film simply being somewhat dirty. It stil looks very good though.)
keep in mind that by “archiving this copy” I meant archive the transfer mentioned in this thread.
