It seems that some shades of magenta have been globally replaced with a kind of greyish-brown. I noticed it also on some laserblasts.

That is my fault, since it was caused by the old color correction of the BD that I made for Harmy. Pushing down the magenta was the only way I could find that would globally fix all the problems with it. Seriously, the use of magenta in the BD is horrible. Lots of things that should be red is magenta. Heck, even stuff that should be a soft brown.

So blame me. And of course Lucasfilm for the terrible BD master.

Oh, I remember now, you were trying to get rid of the magenta tint on Uncle Owen's sleeve by use of selective color replacement, but didn't realize you used the selective color on the whole film.

No actually I always intended the selective color settings to be for the whole film. I think I posted a screenshot of Owen once just to show that you could find the magentas everywhere and how it would fix them. The main reason I pushed magentas down so much were the blaster explosions. Maybe I would've done it slightly differently today, but I did what I could back then and I still think the result in Harmy's new version looks good overall.
