@ Spaced Ranger, what I'm primarily interested in is seeing if theres a way to undo the red-infused colour mix of the widescreen versions, back to less uncontaminated colours like on the 82 laserdisc. You_Too and Dark_Jedi are already working on this but are using one overall correction setting. What I was interested in was whether there was a more automated systematic way to use earlier information (for example from the 82 laserdisc) and import that over/apply that to a widescreen version. G-Force has written a script to do colour matching, which AntcuFaalb used to do something along these lines = http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/New-colormatching-script/post/616355/#TopicPost616355. What I'm trying to garner in this thread is how much it is possible to undo mixed up colours (if red shift is the result of missing blue and green information- can this be added/painted back in using an earlier source to gauge the right levels?)

Heres a Gout still, followed by the 82 which I think looks much more like the natural world (albeit limited), and lastly a 70mm still which I guess itself must be faded somewhat. Can you tell just by looking at the whats here and based on your damn impressive correction on the THX 1138 project, what can reasonably be acheived. Is this actually a workable idea?
