Well, after I released my "The Thing [spoRv]" project, many users posted in that thread about the possibility to use the same technique to correct color grading of other movies - regarding the fact that some (many?) Blu-Ray new releases of old movies are affected...
So, I think a new thread is needed for this argument!
Here you are a list of Blu-Ray movies that (may) need a color grading correction
