Superman is horridly obvious. A teal costume????? WTF??

 

At least with Blade Runner it was a creative decision by the whole restoration team and the director's personal choice. And the original versions were not altered. When watching the FC it isn't a big nagging issue. And the BDs should be redone because they are only BD25s with outdated codecs. The 35mm Final Cut was and is stunning and has none of the BD's issues. (I would know. I saw it eight times. In a week.)

It's been a while since I've popped in my BR:FC blu... but I don't remember it being obvious or badly done.  I guess it's kind of like the new ALIENS blu; I don't mind the teal shift if it's not too far, and if the majority of the scenes take place in artificial lighting.  The entirety of ALIENS and pretty much BLADE RUNNER take place in artificial environments(so I just chalk it up to fluorescent lighting).

When you mention that the 35mm FC has none of the blu-ray issues, are you speaking of the teal color shift?
