Superman Returns clips without color filters.

[fabman]

Yeah... the movie has got quite a sucky color correction.

Me not likey, I agree!

 

[Lazlo Panaflex]

Too funny!

I thought you were serious for a second.

You're right I was only kidding.

 

[Mister J]

I really enjoyed seeing that footage. The colors were vibrant and made the Superman imagery stand out like it should. The drab coloring of the theatrical version always seemed out of place.

How is Version dvd FULL SCREEN of this film?

 

[Mister J]

Fullscreen sucks. Widescreen is the way to go.

I have no idea what that Fleischer Superman pic is supposed to prove or disprove. It's still much brighter than the bland SR color corrected Singerman suit.

There is no reasonable person who can honestly claim that the theatrical washed out colors look better than the Sony Imageworks clips. I said reasonable remember.


Besides, I did a search for Fleischer Superman. That exact pic came up many times and each time it had a different brightness. The pic you show appears much darker than all the others. Again, even so, your pic is much brighter than the SR suit. Though it was technicolor in the 1940's they still knew enough to make the suit bright.

Your post proves nothing. If Singer was going after a Fleischer inspired Superman, he failed miserably.

Just because someone doesn't share the same opinion on "color" in a film doesn't mean they are not reasonable either. I happen to like the color in the finished version of the film over the clips shown without the filter.

I'm not saying you are wrong for liking the non-filtered clips. Most in here seem to like it. Nothing wrong with that at all. Certain shots of it did look better than the film but overall I think the finished version works better for me.

For you to say someone is "unreasonable" for liking a version different than you, is an unreasonable statement itself.

Like I said, no reasonable person would prefer the washed out and muted colors to the original brighter ones. Maybe I should try putting a dirty piece of saran wrap over my TV and see more movies in Singervision.

The undying SR defenders are usually unwilling to admit any mistakes.

not true... I know a supporter who now thinks the suit definitely needs improvements

I know, I was obviously being overdramatic. There have been a few SR lovers on this board who have admitted the color is much better in the Sony clips.

There are however many people who refuse to admit any faults or Singer mistakes. I've never seen that kind of undying support for a movie that the general public has forgotten. It's like a religion for some of these fanatics. When finally presented evidence on film that the original colors are wonderful and dramatic, they still want to see Singervision.

See it in Singervision....It's like wiping mud all over your TV screen.

By the way calling stuff names isn't nice.

[dark_b]

[Angeloz]

I mean why do you call them Sony clips. Though nice pictures.

Angeloz

 

[dark_b]

[Angeloz]

[SuperDaniel]
