Hollywood now care more about skin color than Technicolor.
Since most movies are now shot with digital cameras what is technicolor even used for?
Ebony and Ivory...Live together in perfect harmony...LOL
I believe The Red Shoes was the first Technicolor movie; that was a great movie that I can still watch.
Watching Lawrence of Arabia...The Dark Knight...2001...Jurassic Park...To Kill A Mockingbird...Schindler's List...Bridge on the River Kwai and other classics in 4K is an experience that's hard to top.
As far as recent films are concerned I have very,very little interest indeed.
Those technicolor cameras were said to provide the truest colors for the big screens.
This is what happens when you move your company out of the US (Paris) I’m sure that a US company can do what they did cheaper.
Most movies these days seem to be shot in fifty shades of green/blue/gray, with maybe two or three lumens krieglights. It’s a happening thing. It’s a drag.
Movies look uglier than ever . I want to blame digital but im not an expert
Top 20 Technicolor three strip process films made using Technicolor’s three-strip process (aka “Process 4”) which ran from 1932 to 1955:
1. **Flowers and Trees** (1932) - The first film to use three-strip Technicolor, this Disney short won an Oscar and kicked off the color revolution in animation.
2. **Becky Sharp** (1935) - The first feature-length film shot entirely in three-strip Technicolor, a milestone despite its modest narrative.
3. **The Garden of Allah** (1936) - An early showcase of lush desert hues, starring Marlene Dietrich, proving the process’s outdoor potential.
4. **Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs** (1937) - Disney’s first feature-length animated film, its success solidified Technicolor’s dominance.
5. **The Adventures of Robin Hood** (1938) - Errol Flynn’s swashbuckler dazzles with vivid greens and reds, a Technicolor triumph.
6. **The Wizard of Oz** (1939) - Iconic for its transition from sepia to dazzling color, with ruby slippers and Emerald City shining bright.

8. **The Thief of Bagdad** (1940) - A fantasy spectacle with exotic, jewel-toned visuals that push the process to its limits.
9. **Fantasia** (1940) - Disney’s experimental animation pairs music with bold, abstract colors, a technical marvel.

20. **The Ladykillers** (1955) - The last film shot with an unmodified three-strip camera, its quirky charm is heightened by rich color.
Been looking for a decent 3 strip technicolor photoshop action for awhile. I have a few, but they are quite involved and complicated, and don’t quite ma5ch the color of true technicolor films.
I bought a series of forgotten adventure movies from the Hollywood Scrapheap which are still in beautiful technicolor. It is hard to believe such forgotten movies exist, and are still better than modern made movies.
Everything is being done with CGI on green screens, even when it is completely unnecessary or makes no sense.
Hollywood crashed and burned sometime before 2005 and is circling the toilet bowl. Hollywood can’t make a good movie today. Woke broke them.
With film gone that’s not a surprise. Honestly the surprise is they’re still around.
We’ll still have color, only cinematography seems to be a lost art nowadays with all the lighting the same in every frame.
Hollywood is DEAD! And who cares!
Maybe if the used technicolor they would be making money.
