Big fan of your work as you know DrDre, so I’m looking forward to seeing how you go with this.
Am I correct in my recollection that the 1997 SE was timed to George Lucas’ Tech IB print of the original '77 Star Wars? I know the Laserdisc and VHS releases of the '97 SE are in no way representative of the colours seen in the cinema, so I’m curious as to how similar the pre-2004 SE is to the original grading.
That’s what it was timed to, but that doesn’t mean it’s an exact replica of the colors. And yeah, the home video versions have a shit-ton of pink in them, through they’re still leaps and bounds better than the god-awful 2004/2011 colors.
