[Proposal] Gangs Of New York

What's people's thoughts on the blu rays of Gangs of New York?

Clearly the newer blu ray is better from a picture quality point of view but it does lose some image on all four sides. It also looks like it's been given a teal workover, screenshot 12 for example the copper's uniform is now green instead of blue. Then again I'm not that taken with the color from the older blu ray either, looks a bit washed out to me. The DVD is the same as the earlier blu ray, I suspect they are from the same source. 

What do others think?

I'm wondering if there is a project here somewhere, maybe the two blu rays AutoOverlay'd with color correction and possibly the Cinema DTS.

I agree the new one’s colors do seem a bit off, modernized a bit too far, pic 5 is the most telling for me.

But the new BD is a much better transfer. The old BD has a ton of EE from the looks of it. If you can reasonable get the two to merge together I’d say go for it. I’d watch that project.

Thanks I'll add it to the list and run some tests with AutoOverlay to see how successful it is.
