Right, I know that’s what’s been done, but why? Is there any reason to believe the yellow tint isn’t intentional? In a modern DI workflow that involves no photochemical steps, there’s no reason to doubt what’s been released.

Interesting project, but if the goal is to preserve the original format, you really shouldn’t be deinterlacing at all. Also, removing dirt originating from the cels, removing telecine wobble, and cel edges, isn’t preservation, but processing.
Agreed the official new masters are horrible, though.

I think those artefacts occur when a scene is time-stretched in post production. I’m not 100% sure Klasky Csupo would be to blame.
