Yeah, I'm waiting for the red version of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

Maybe once we get the red version, they'll combine the red, blue, and yellow versions and release the perfect (accurate) version.

I once owned a copy of TGTB&TU on VHS that had a lot of red.. as in blood. This was a reissue of the 1990 MGM/UA 2-tape version that used a newer, or at least different, print (although in English, the titles that introduce/ denote the three main characters are in Italian). In this version, the color temperature was cooler than I had previously seen and the skintones appeared very much on the pale side. When I said blood (I admit I like being dramatic sometimes), I was referring mostly to the scene midway through the movie where Tuco endures a major beatdown. Due to the pale/ pinkish skintones the blood really stands out.

No, they'll never do that. We will have to run all three versions simultaneously through three projectors, like Cinerama, to finally get the correct color.

I'm sure these titles will be issued on 4K ultra blu Ray. That and the bond films.

BTW, correct me if wrong, but I believe the mid-90's MGM/UA laserdisc edition used the same alternate print as my above-mentioned old VHS.
