Just to be clear, I wasn't trying to use the word "fake" as an insult.
I wasn't certain how you meant it, but I didn't take it as an insult, Charles. At worst, one could assume that you simply didn't like the effect. And, I agree that the colors are more intense than realistic. For this particular movie I feel the effect was perfect, though I would understand if others felt differently.
If anyone saw and remembers the Warren Beatty's
Dick Tracy movie, the colors in that movie were similarly unrealistic. However, I feel
The Adventures of Robin Hood did a better job of it and was, in general, a better movie. YMMV.
