The use of colour is not a new thing.Steven Soderbergh does it in almost every movie he makes.It\'s all one strict colour.It is done very well in Traffic where every colour depicts another storyline.

Minority Report was a pretty good movie but at the end the plot took a few turns that don\'t add up(imho).

"Payback" starring Mel Gibson was a film that was almost entirely blue.  I think it was really a fad among DPs at the time to do heavy tinting, but hopefully it will become less common.  It\'s fine to use it in moderation, but I think it was overdone many times.

O Brother, Where Art Thou? was put through a digital process where the greens were turned to browns and the directors played with tones throughout the shifting plot changes.  I also kinda wish they left it the way it was; some of the landscapes and forest scenes would have had a lush green color.  Pretty!!

:laughing: @ Fastson

Most movies are filtered in some way or the other - just take Lord of the Rings where the film was digitally color graded for that \'fantasy look\'.

Or what about Saving Private Ryan... nice cinematography in that one. Janusz Kaminski (sp) r0x0rz (he shot Minority Report too btw).

Amelie is a french movie that I absolutely love!

The colours are very bright(they used some kind of filter).You get very happy when you watch the movie and the colours really enhance that feeling!.

I urge everyone to see this movie:

http://us.imdb.com/Title?0211915

P.S:The full title is: Le Fabuleux destin d\'Amélie Poulain

I second that notion.

The director goes into the process/reasoning for the colour enhancements on the bonus material on DVDversion.  Great movie.

In respect to Minority Report, regardless of the feel that they were trying to achieve with certain filters, the DVD transfer was piss-poor at best,..well, maybe not that bad. I found the DVD version to very washed-out,  and a touch too grainy for my liking. If anyone has seen A.I. on disc, you may have noticed that these two releases are not dissimliar in their lack of quality. I suspect that both might see a re-release under the guise of a "Special Edition", with hopefully an improved transfer, which is not that uncommon with this medium.

Bah, for the time being all DVD\'s should be of the Super-bit variety. [/end rant]
