I've rented part one...

...and am disappointed. It has been brightened so much so that it seems like a different film. I liked the darker original. It reminds me of the complaints about the chemical clean up done to the Sistine chapel many years ago: that the chemicals stripped away some of Michaelangelo's artistic intent, along with the muck and mire of 400 years of candles and tourists. I know that Coppola and the cinematographer oversaw the color correction for the BD, but this is just another video abuse of a film original. I think they made a serious creative change, and it doesn't work for me. I have a Panasonic BD30 player and a Panasonic 42 inch plasma monitor. I tried to tweak the setting, turned down the brightness, and it didn't help much. Oh, well.
