I wonder if it’s possible that they reconposited everything for the tech prints. It certainly seems to be a possibility because mike has talked about how the blue shadow on the text in the credits is different between tech prints, but the same across all other prints.
If that is the case, then the original negative used for Eastman prints wouldn’t have the misalignment, but the tech prints would.
I think that is highly unlikely - there is absolutely no reason for them to re-comp shots for IB tech and even if they did, the IB printing would still only be used to duplicate the finished shots - if the credits are different on the IBs, then it’s probably because they were made later than the US prints.
But it’s simple really - if the misalignment is a result of the IB printing, then it really shouldn’t be present on other prints and if there is any present on other prints, it must have been on the negative.
