"Unstoppable" is way up there.

the excuses they find to put blue things in scenes are pretty funny. Blue refrigerator lights!

David Hare's Page Eight is overbearingly T&Oed.

i did not notice that. i was too busy trying to decide if it was a good film or an awful one.

f u if you don't like that

hmm. I think one positive to this look, is that despite some sense that there is no clear zeigeist/style to this era (which I'm not actually totally convinced of), one thing that will really end up dating it will be this teal and orange look. it'll probably, in hindsight, give the era its own ambience (and perhaps we might even start being able to date certain phases by which color filters are being used - late 90s/early 00s being more grey and green)

that is a great poster

I think they used as many colours in 1920.

Green Lantern on HBO right now, this shit needs to stop

No mention itt for Hugo yet? Watching this on Blu-Ray and for the first ten minutes I was worried my color settings got all jacked up and permanently set to "t&o".

no its been posted

Oh, hm, I didn't see any posters and control-f didn't give me anything. Must be one of those broken images?

Drive has got to feature some of the most blatant t&o I've seen lately, right down to wardrobe & set decoration choices.

I'm loving the abbreviation "t&o".

It was fairly overpowering, even my missus who just shrugs when I go on about it commented on it. What I don't get is how someone like Scorsese falls for it. I can understand some young directors and DPs thinking this is a good look but someone with his experience and knowledge of cinema shouldn't fall for it. The scenes with the the flower seller could have been some gorgeous technicolor dream but instead were just this mush of t&o.

it was fairly obviously done to evoke two-strip technicolor of the period, which could range in color depending on how the film was exposed but was basically teal & brownish orange:

scorsese did something similar with The Aviator:

yeah that drove a guy i know insane. the red stop light being orange basically ruined the movie for him

i think drive's an instructive example though because, i mean, it's a very nicely shot film. it looks really good! the lighting is great, composition, all that jazz. it has a limited color palette but it's not ugly. it actually uses color pretty intelligently, to say something about the characters. i mean i get that everyone has little things that irrationally bug them, i have my own trends that im sick of, but you still gotta look at the big picture imo

it's funny i don't recall any of those shots looking like that. shit is ~subliminal~

i almost never notice it while im watching a movie - it really stands out in screenshots

Ya totes true
