Looking forward to seeing this release. The sample clip you posted above plays really nice on my monitor and has a lovely clarity to it. I'm sceptical a one stop colour correction can satisfy me altogether, but I'm willing to be proved wrong on this.

haha who said Star Wars has just one colour correction setting for the whole film? I wish it was that easy.

No, there must be at least 20-30 different colour correction settings for different parts of the film, excluding all the lightsaber shots that had to be selectively colour corrected. This film is simply too inconsistant colourwise to do anything else. Luckily Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi are a lot more consistant colourwise so far fewer different settings were needed for those.

I've maintained the overall colour scheme but there are colour tweaks all over the place just to reign in the more inconsistant parts of the film. Most of the scenes with Grand Moff Tarkin had to be selectively regraded for example, they were too saturated a lot of the time.
