It would take more time, more people, more money than I've ever heard done to a commercial release... I mean, there's no way around it. Even with original elements, the hardest shots are shit-tons of work. I dunno... we have no reason not to stay hopeful and positive, but also no reason not to hedge our bets.
What about other restorations of films from the 70's like Jaws or The Godfather? Both of those were relatively worn to shit and they have some great restorations.
