I never thought the new version was bad or anything, but seeing the 35mm printed version revealed more to my eyes that didn't seem correct. I'm happy to be proven wrong as it's merely my own personal opinion and the DVD transfer was itself flawed.

What it will take is direct comparison or better yet information on the process of the new version, one of the last projects done by Ron Smith before leaving Paramount.

As of now, I think the new color timing is closer to the original but with more modern leanings.
