I'm going to be honest, some of those extended cut screenshots remind me of the 35mm print I saw! That print seemed to be a mix of LPP and Fuji stock, some reels were yellow-greenish and blown out and Superman's costume looked kind of teal (I assume LPP, which usually has that kind of bias), while others were a little purplish and had better contrast and Superman's costume was blue (I assume Fuji, didn't that have a purple bias?). The changes in color balance definitely appeared to occur at reel changes, and persist for an entire reel.
A couple of the shots do look weird (that last screenshot in particular) but other ones seem to cause memory recall of that 35mm screening...
That's the theory I've been operating under lately, that the green/yellow in some prints is from certain type of Kodak LPPs, Fuji is blue/purple and Agfa is also blue-ish.
