I think both Elmo Oxygen and OmegaMattman were talking about being willing.

OM's color matched hybrid version sounds like just what we want.  You up for that?

That said, EO has some nicely authored discs.  Wouldn't mind seeing that.

With regard to the aspect ratio differences, it appears that both versions may have been 2.20:1.  So that really shouldn't be much of an issue.  I was concerned there would need to be cropping of the DVD source.  Of course the LD will need to be upscaled to anamorphic wide.

I'd like to be able to do more with this than cheer on from the sidelines, but once you are getting into color matching, I'm just not really equipped to do that so it looks professional.
