Hey guys.
It seems there's a time limit to post messages, so I'll try to be brief.
So, double feature!
As the title says, this is an upgraded/polished 2.0 release of The Matrix. I used a nice collection of 35mm film cells as reference for grading.
When I did the 1080p degreened version (the first version) I noticed that it matched most of the cells just by removing that awful green blanket, which gave me confidence to finish what started just as a fun project. There were some other shots here and there that required further tweaking, and here the 35mm scan that's been floating around for some time came in handy. It looks horrible, but can help for this little things, like "Neo in boss' office". The 35mm suggests it should look cooler than the old bluray, more like the 4K or the first DVD.
What I did for v2.0 is polishing the already quite nice first degreened version (I found some more 35mm cells!). Then, I used this degreened version as reference for the 4K release, which is an obvious upgrade from the first grading (and no, I don't have it anymore). There can be some slight differences (brightness, contrast, saturation... nothing too drastic).
The degreened 1080p it's already nice. The 4K regrade?, get this 2.0 version without hesitating.
Both the 1080p and 4K include the Cinema DTS track!
