Nice! Ok Hope you could finish the project ASAP - I'm one of the few here who actually know how you can feel with unfinished projects... so, you have my full emotional support, for what it's worth.

A pat on your back, and keep going! Big Grin

With the constant reissuing of MM titles Warner is doing they should at least fix this glaring issue. Congrats on another great looking pass.

I think I've figured out how to fix all the major issues with my RW/MM2 regrade so now comes the hard part of doing the work. So, what I'm going to do is put a pause on all my other projects temporarily (even the ones close to finish) and just focus on this for right now. I'll get some video samples up in a bit but for now here are some more comparisons:

You might want to give the regrade a new pair of black bars, just so you know. Tongue

Looks awesome! Why is the last shot so dark? Twilight is really at the last shot of the film, not by this time?

That's just what the dvd looks like. Maybe near dark, maybe in the shadow of the truck, maybe the dirt in the air, I don't know.

The DVD is much darker in the major night scene also....

Good, but I'd lower just a bit the red channel - that's it... or I have to calibrate this old HDTV better! Smile
