Well, almost everyone agrees that this movie is too dark, and often part of the action is lost due to this.
I made my own project and increased brightness, along with fixing three short shots that needed to be fixed (at the time): https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Aliens...D/id/16422
Now, after some time - and experience - I'm ready to "refresh" this project a bit... this time it would be the theatrical cut (and not the unrated version I used for the previous project).
Using the open matte WEB version and BD, I'll use the same brightness increase I used before, but this time I'll tweak also the colors, as I think they are quite dull...
At the end, plus points are:
Comparison - BD top, UAR bottom:

If only I could find the fullscreen DVD... I'm curious to see if it's possible to use it as a third source!

At the end, plus points are:
- bigger frame size
- increased brightness
- "better" colors
