After checking the screenshot comparisons and checking out some of the video, I think I'll likely stick with the HD-DVD colors. Besides losing the snow tint, which makes the snow look a bit more realistic, there seems to be a bit too much of a yellowish cast to some of the actors in certain scenes. And with the direct screen grab comparisons, the revised colors to me seem a bit "lifeless" and washed out in comparison to the HD-DVD. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking the process in any way, but I think the cons outweigh the pros on this. Of course, the HD-DVD may have the colors boosted also, but those images seem more pleasing to my eye. I think a happy medium may lie somewhere in between both these.
