I had a unique chance to see a 70mm magnetic print this past year. To my eyes, the image looked a lot like the THX laserdisc in terms of color to my eyes, but it was free of any digital enhancement and grain reduction. It looked like a 1990s film, which is to say, great.

Which of the two laserdisc pictures on this page is the one you’re talking about? (if either)

Not sure if anyone's seen but there are some 35mm film strips for sale on ebay UK:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2060353.m570.l1313.TR10.TRC2.A0.H0.Xterminator+2+35mm.TRS0&_nkw=terminator+2+35mm&_sacat=0

Seems to suggest that trailer that's on youtube may be fairly accurate

Actually, those film strips are from the same trailer. Notice:

1. They are not anamorphic

2. One of the strips is the Kyle Reese scene

3. Another strip is the "T2" logo.

The majority of film strips on eBay UK come from trailers. I've only seen strips for a couple movies that look to have come from actual theatrical prints.

That will explain why they look the same haha.

Terminator 1 & 2 Projects (Released)

Watched your version of Terminator 2 the other night and really enjoyed it. The skin tones defintely look better and the image was as good as its going to be with the current scan. The CDS mix was fantastic! I've only got a basic speaker set up but it sounded vey full on and exciting.

I only flicked through T1 briefly but it seems to be a big change from the current blu-ray in terms of colour. Out of interest, what was your source for your colour grading?
