Re: The in-theater clip, yes I know it's recorded off a screen, but I would guess that in a theater, it would look in line with other late 80s/early 90s release prints. Here are trends I've been seeing as I attend repertory screenings (for example, I took a lot of mental notes from the original 1987 print of Lethal Weapon I saw a couple weeks ago).

-Slight "LPP yellow" cast to the lighter end of the color spectrum, especially whites and highlights (but whites still look bright)

-Teal and blue are two separate colors. Even with the "LPP yellow" effect, light blues only look slightly teal, sometimes, but blues (blue skies, blue jeans, night shots) still actually look blue.

-While lighter greens look yellowish ("LPP yellow" again?), deeper greens don't.

-Less pink in skin tones than in old video transfers, less orange than in modern transfers; unless they're particularly ruddy, white people tend to have a complexion similar to what Crayola used to call "flesh", while blacks look chocolate and/or bronze (both also owing to the "yellowness" of LPP?)

-General lack of red in objects and elements that are not specifically red; blood is red, fire engines are red, stop lights are red, but stuff like fire tends to be more yellow-orange than red-orange.

Any of this sound familiar to any of you who have seen prints of T1, T2, or any other films from that timespan? Just curious.

In general, from what little I've seen in the way of 35mm prints, I don't think there have been very many home transfers that do justice to 80s/90s photochemical timing. Old transfers had too much red/pink, modern transfers often have too much teal and orange, and it's seeming to me that original theatrical prints actually fell somewhere in the middle.

I look forward to seeing what you guys can do.
