@frank678: Cheers, you're being incredibly helpful!
Is it possible you didn't like test 2 because you felt it had too much contrast rather than because of the colour? Can you have a look at this clip below, test 2a, where i've kept the colour settings of test 2 but reduced the contrast slightly and let me know whether you still prefer test 3?

If you still prefer test 3, can you then have a look at this new clip, test 4, and let me know which you prefer:

@_,,,^..^,,,_: Thanks, glad you like the colour grading here.
You're not the first to mention the issue of saturation, poita also prefers a more desaturated look to the film. I think i'm going to release a version like that as well.
These are the settings I plan to use for this less saturated version. Please let me know what you think:

The final shot of the spaceship that has the colour grading changing as you say is in the original blu-ray source, nothing to do with my settings.
