Aliens: Teal, teal & more Teal. :(
NOT ON BLU-RAY - Orange and Teal, or How “Re-Mastering” is Distorting Our View of Classic Films (link from OP) shows this stupefying Aliens Blu-to-DVD comparison:
Fortunately, it can be easily color corrected with a few histogram settings (in a paint program):
HISTOGRAM
RED Gamma 1.6 Midtones +15
GREEN Gamma 1.1 Midtones +20
BLUE Gamma 1.1 Midtones -3

Speaking of Aliens (Extended Edition, though)... what about a spoRved version?
Your use of the Avisynth ColourLike() should do short work of Aliens -- except the problem areas of crushed blacks and blown-out whites, which this Blu-ray has.
BTW, I was impressed by your nice work on The Matrix correction and tried that filter (in your ColourLikeFBF function) ... but kept getting an error message "Evaluate: System exception - Access Violation ([ScriptClip], line 5)". What did you do to solve this?
What are the chances of a similarly easy correction for Great Escape?
It would still have the DNR

I still love the grain in the Aliens blu-ray and would prefer that over the hd-tv broadcast. We just need to see how many clipped white scenes there are. I still enjoyed watching it in motion though and it never really bothered me. Though it would be neat to see the colors changed for the blu-ray.
The grain is fake tho
