I'm not dissatisfied with the current look at all. The conversation just got me reading about color grading and I was wondering if it were possible to "push" the colors back to the other direction in order to look like the LD rips that people are talking about. It's just for fun. I'm happy...

I'm going to throw some fuel on the fire...

What do you color nuts think of this? I tried to match the older laserdisc shots that are posted everywhere.

How are they standing on the castle balcony when the castle is behind them? This can't be original, what kind of trick is this?!

Disappointed that it doesn't come with a HD copy of the "How to hook up your home theater" Goofy short.

This is really crude, but maybe it will drive the point home about the perspective issue. http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/3703/reflectionbad.jpg I can't say why they didn't re-animate it. Probably too expensive. I also don't know why they went out of their way to do it in the first place? I still...

I wouldn't call it lazy. Just kind of an odd thing to do. It looks good in motion though. @funloops: Yes, but it's so easy to mirror a digital object and I wonder why they just didn't do that. Anyway, I guess the mirroring will only be in the IMAX-version which I don't like at all. Perspective would...

Eh... they copied the animation over and moved the hair. Not perfect, but also not very perceptible unless you freeze-frame it.

Interesting. although the colors are essentially the same, The Diamond colors seem to much better. The reds are deeper, the blues are bluer, and the hues brighter and less faded-looking. But they still don't seem like the "original" colors. The previous DVD sported a pretty bad encode job...

Would you be able to take some screencaps using the DVD?

The trailer on the Snow White Blu-ray makes some pretty good wallpaper material. I liked this shot in particular.
