I know some people on LDDb do. What frames should I ask them to capture or photograph?

The scene of Neo being interviewed by Smith has a really strong and noticeable tint in both the DVD and BD (the DVD being more yellow and the BD being more green). Would be great to see an LD shot from this scene to compare.

You know, I remember seeing The Matrix in the cinema and when the DVD came out it never looked or felt the same to me though, at the time, I could never figure out why. It's only since reading the threads here that I've really begun to suspect that the green tints were added for the DVD and weren't present in that first viewing. It would be great to have this answered.

Interestingly, kk650 did a regraded version of the BD with neutral colour timing throughout (i.e. no green tints). It would be amusing if this actually turned out to be the most theatrically accurate version of the movie available. :D
