This is speculation on my part, but Warner is a very large and decentralized company, and most likely they have one or more dedicated departments for producing trailers and promotional videos for various purposes, including the Web. The people who created the trailer may or may not have had access to the restoration footage, or even thought about whether there might be any problems with changing the look of the film. For all we know, the controversial trailer may have come from their Web content division.Drucker wrote: ↑Wed Sep 19, 2018 3:57 pmSo just to reiterate: a few of us did see the Nolan prints and thought it looked great. The people who saw the 4k/new restoration digitally are reporting it looked great, with colors seeming off in possibly one scene at most. That means 6 months spent fretting over trailer for the non-official restoration.
Again, this is just speculation--but because L'Immagine Ritrovata is a much smaller operation it seems that the people producing the trailer for something like the DEATH IN VENICE restoration are more likely to have had access to the restored footage, and there is a greater chance that the trailer more or less reflects what the restoration will look like. But I guess we will find that out for certain as the restoration gets more widely seen.
