Re: [scifinoir2] Re:Swordfish
Its called desaturation. Basically like turning down the colors on your tv. Editors often play around with the colors of a film when they are finishing it. Also if you have the money Panavision will make up film mixtures to affect the color as well. Which seems sort of wasteful but it is all part of the artistic process.

Re: [scifinoir2] Re:Swordfish
That was part of the fun of those old detective shows. The guys weren't invincible, weren't some kind of Special Forces/Green Beret/SEAL who could kill a man with their pinky. They were regular guys who had to depend on sleuthing, healthy tips to the local pimp or drunk for information, and good old fashioned stubborness. Made them more relatable to me. Remember Jim Rockford? He was always getting beat up too, and i loved that show. By the way, i hear The Rockford Files is being remade soon. - Original Message - From: C.W.

Re: [scifinoir2] Re:Swordfish
Oh don't make me sad! I remember the good old shows for the important works they were at the time due to their cultural significance, then get sad when they're mined shamelessly for quick cash nowadays. Mod Squad was a seminal show for its time. I was puzzled as to why they did a remake, given the power and import of the original couldn't be recaptured in these modern times. it just came off as someone capitalizing on the name and memory of a show, but not really contributing to its significance. In the 70s, young hippie types as cops, a black man and a woman as detectives, was revolutionary. In modern times it's same old same old. Even TV shows like New York Undercover had covered that ground by the time the movie came out. I felt the same about Shaft. They just cashed in on the name, then gave us a movie where Jackson brought nothing new to the role, made nothing approaching the type of statements Roundtree was making back in the day (even of some of those statements were sexist). And it was toothless to boot, as the studio demanded they cut back on all the sexuality of Roundtree's original movies. Then what was the point...? And most of all, I still lament what Tom Cruise did to the Mission Impossible concept with his movies. I believe that was one of the first of the recent trend of remakes in name only, where the studio cashes in on the cachet of a name, then proceeds to completely butcher the original concept. The MI movies were okay (the third had lots of good action thanks to Abrams), but they were nothing like the real concept of the series. The series were about deception, planning, and teamwork. They had a lot of intelligently planned and executed missions. The movies were star vehicles centering on Cruise, with the other agents as mere assistants. It was really more a spy movie based on a single spy. I wish they'd have just created a new franchise and not sullied the memory of MI by using that great series' name. And what did they to Jim Phelps character in the first flick was unforgivable. Peter Graves--the second but most well known Jim Phelps---was aghast at that move. Yeah, yeah I know: idiot modern, younger audiences need more action. Man I get tired of that excuse.
