I would be wary of going by some of the scans on originaltrilogy when judging colors. Many there are totally messing up the scan colors. I think they are maybe treating some very much non-sRGB colorspace as if it were sRGB/REC709 gamut or something.

I have some 35mm of certain things I've seen posted there and the colors on my 35mm are WAY, WAY more rich and vibrant than on many of the 35mm scans there of Disney stuff. For The Little Mermaid most of all. It's 1000x more vibrant than they show for their 35mm scans.

And for some older Disney stuff some of the old 35mm prints are simply, poor faded, old copy of copy of copy and while looking somewhat dull that might not be representative of how the better prints they made for original release looked.

The removing detail stuff for say Cinderella is real though and a pretty horrendous remastering job.
