When I shoot consumer film, generally through point and shoots, I'm a big fan of Gold. I like the warmer colors better.

All i see is Kodak Ultra Max 400, still the same as Gold? More times than not I like the look of Gold vs Superia. Reality is that I buy whatever is the best deal at the time

The only Gold branded Kodak seems to be Kodak Gold 200.
Lomo film used to be Ferrania's but now says "made in the USA" and it is rumored to be Kodak manufactured.
I got a 3 pack of Lomography 100 and shot half off it. This film is rumored to be a Kodak product and probably Kodak Gold 100; A website lists it as Kodacolor VR100. So are the 400 and 800.
The plastic container is Rochester's, the very same one as the one on Kodak Portra.
I caught interest in the Lomography films because they are cheapie and in some cases more available than Kodak's own consumer film. In my side, ultramax is rare (even online) and they have a 400 and 800... Also on 120!
And, variety is king, so it is nice to have a source of Kodak Gold with its own palette. Interestingly the Lomos give an alternative at 100 (Ektar) and 800 (in 120 just Portra). However, who knows what kind of Kodak film is it, the last iteration of Gold or an older generation?

You would think it is just a re-brand from a current emulsion. There can't be an cost savings for doing a special run of an older emulsion. Or perhaps they are just cleaning out their vaults of old film they already have in storage. That would make sense.
