No problem PDB. I can make note of all your questions and jot down observations like I did with 2001 last month. Looking at your film examples of Aliens I am very much reminded of how the T2 35mm looked. It's almost like Aliens and T2 were color timed at the same time (obviously they weren't though).

Much appreciated!

There is a common thread there with the colors. Not unreasonable given directors like to use certain looks. The BD is not a perfect match to the 8mm/35mm but its much closer then any other video master before it. Sigh, I want a 35mm print of Aliens.

Back to what you were talking about earlier Alien vs Aliens. Younger, I always went for Aliens but nowadays, I'm not sure. I think I appreciate Alien more now that I'm older.
