To me changing (correcting?) a 50 plus year old film is like colorizing a Black and White film. The film and its special effects/ process shots are what they are and shouldn't be changed for modern tastes. Would you change every film from the 30's and 40's where the actors are standing in front a screen, pretending to be outside when it is obvious that it was shot on sound stage? For example would you change Hitchcock's 'Notorious?" Should these films be redone to look more realistic? Its great what can be done today. What is done today will probably look bad when compared to what can be done tomorrow. Leave films to look like they did at the time they were made.
