Is anybody with the know-how interested in colour-correcting these? All that beautiful recovered detail with the awful GOUT colours seems like a crime.

Either Harmy's or TeamBlu's versions could be used as a reference as both have much improved colours.

 I've got settings that I'm going to use for my personally slightly modified color correction.

But I think Dre's actual release should be unmodified. Not that it can't be drastically improved, but you will never have any consensus or agreement on the matter. One of the main reasons I'm looking forward to this is, despite absolutely loving TeamBlu and Harmy's reconstructions , I personally am not 100% satisfied with the color in either of them. They both blow away the Bluray, but I do prefer the GOUT (which can be made to look a little less washed out without significantly changing anything). Other people love them. Other people love KK650 or age's or other LUT options. Can't satisfy everyone, so best to leave it.

Harmy himself has  said that there was a misunderstanding about the source he was correcting it to and that he would do it differently. Blu's is attractive, but a reimagining.

Edit: Actually, I love Harmy's earlier color (1.0?) and TeamBlu V3. Not surprising, for me, since they're more GOUTy.
