Ok. I understand the appeal of trying new technology but can we please stop modifying old films? The Wizard of Oz's practical visuals give it a distinct visual style and it's annoying to see people try to "improve" it rather than accept the visual effects of its era. Especially because it's false advertising. If you're promising to release The Wizard of Oz from 1939 you can't lie about the 2025 tinkering to that movie. This isn't like 4K restoration because it's not using modern technology to restore what was created at that time.
