Orange flags......

What does this mean?  Please be kind.

I think he's referring to the red Nazi flags looking orange on the BD.

It was changed to gold to match Kingdom, it is not the 1980's timing at all

Is that including the impact that an 80s projection bulb would have on the colortiming?

At least the orange painted flags were preserved.  They are the about the same orangish red on the BD as on the 35mm prints.  Lacking a reference, can't say for certain about the cloth flags, but it would seem odd for someone to change those while leaving most everything else untouched (or at least leaving all of the frames we have 35mm references for untouched).  Not that stranger things haven't happened, with the sleeves of a certain cantina patron...

In one of the threads I found a 35mm still with the flags at the ark scene, they were red on set and when I saw it 35mm, also grass was green in the opening 

Was this 35mm still being projected with a gold-colored projection bulb (like in the theater) or was it just a raw scan?
