Can I rip a Bluray, fix the tint issue it has, and put it back on the disc?

I have this bluray I recently got and it has a green tint on the whole movie, I am wondering if I can rip it, fix the issue thats causing it, and then put it back on the same disc with minimal conaquences/issues or if thats even possibel to begin with.

... "put it back on the same disc" ...
No, BluRay is not writeable media. It is an integral part of the DRM conspiracy.
Hell, it didn't even used to be readable in Linux until the read-encryption was cracked (which may seem unrelated if you are a Windows/Mac user but illustrates that the companies behind BluRay are absolutely opposed to any manipulations such as the one you proposed.)
If the video is a pink tint in addition to green then it's probably a Dolby Vision encoded file and your playback device doesn't support it.
- Good to know for the future
From reading the other comments it seems all discs are like this?
In that case your problem is the calibration of your input and display device.
You can get calibration discs that will let you adjust levels in a guided way.
Or just adjust the green amount.
- I wirded it really poory, I ment "all the movies" in respons to getting it replaced, I was trying to say all the releases of the movie have the green tin t, be it steel book, base or collectors ect. and it was a mistake when making the blu rays and not a TV issue.
  
  Oh yes well that's just because of the poor master. Time Bandits was like that for years till it was properly done with the latest remaster. The same was true for The Faith Element.
  Well if you think you can adjust the tint then you should easily be able to rip the disc, depending on how new it is.
  I use MakeMKV myself.
