Harmy's Despecialized Star Wars 1977 - Color Adjustment Project for v2.7 (released)
Time

Thanks for all your hard work. It’s amazing that this thing exists! Unfortunately I have to offer some harsh criticism of some of the color correction though. Sorry!

I found v2.7 to be unwatchable on a well calibrated screen 😦 It was only certain shots, specifically any sunlit ones. The skin tones look closer to what Friedkin did to the French Connection: really overblown and artificial. It’s like they’ve tried to make everyone’s skin look tan. I get the thinking, but it’s not The Good, The Bad and the Ugly. Other (indoor) shots look more natural.

This is the first Despecialized I’ve watched, so I don’t know if this was an improvement over 2.5. But couldn’t watch daylight scenes.

Still magical watching the original, though. Thanks for restoring it.
