My scientifically informed estimate is it's somewhere around 5 pixels in horizontal and about 3 pixels in vertical resolution. Don't hold me to it though!

I'm wondering if this guy does some chroma swap magic, as the colors really pop.
His The Terminator U Matic is probably a telecine of a print as he says it's a "cinema copy" so not based on any home-video version and probably just a 1/1 of the source with just the limitation of the tech of the original color capture.
His Alien which I posted in other thread years back is also 100% the original colors (as they match the one from the book made of 35mm stills and my remembrances), including blown out whites the movie had originaly!
