I agree. I don't care if the colorization process was 100% realistic, or if a widescreen processing of the film could show more image than what was originally seen. A film is what a film is. Changing it later is doing a disservice to it. If you can't stand watching a film in OAR and B&W, then frankly you shouldn't watch that film.
It's like in Casablanca, where the shot of the plane flying over the city is so obviously fake. Sure, we could insert a new FX shot of a much more realistic plane, but then the film wouldn't be Casablanca any more. It'd be someone else's alteration of it. Anyway, if you're going to colorize, widen the image, and supplant the FX of a film, why not just remake it? |

Call Lucas! He'll get in on this! |
