Fantastic Four
Here’s a more anecdotal trend we’ve noticed. Modern action flicks graded to orange and blue tend to be “dark” and “gritty,” and “intense.” Even in properties designed for children. Josh Trank’s “Fantastic Four” suffered from this chronic “adultitis,” sacrificing fun for edginess. Trank insists his original cut of the movie is better. Perhaps its color grading was more subtle too.
