Watched the Blu again this morning and I really do love the colors, especially in the Cairo scenes.

Much too orange. And the bigger problem with the blu is the gamma. The skies are reduced to a hazy white and clouds are blown out.  It looks even worse during the sub scene when Indy climbs aboard. The Ark opening scene is the worst. Color changes from shot to shot and the ghosts, fire and mist are overexposed, losing detail present even in the VHS version. There is also a lot of DNR. Are there any screenshots from the HDTV broadcast for that scene?
