I don't know if this is intentional or not, but after watching some of the WP I think it looks like there's been an incorrect colorspace conversion somewhere along the way, or something similar.

It's mostly visible in reds, which a lot of the time looks orange.

To convert the colorspace back to get the reds more correct while watching, I made a script like this:

DirectShowSource("Despecialized Edition v2.0 Final Workprint.mkv")
ConvertToRGB()
crop( 0, 89, 0, -89)
ConvertToYV12()

Cropped it to avoid that brightness change in the black bars. ;)

Anyway, here's some comparisons before this script and after:

It's easiest to see if you save the images and switch between them.

And here are the strongest reds from Leia's scene beside each other:

Hope this will help if it was unintentional.

If you'd wanna change only the reds, you'd have to use selective color in AE, choose reds and lower the yellow slider a bit, and maybe up the magenta slider slightly.
