I don't want to pay $17 to see Snap Filter on a movie. Don't go to the movies. -

I don't like it when it's dark and no color and your eyes hurt after watching a movie. Ok.

Interesting thread. Odd TV/Monitor color is something I notice and am also "bothered by". I looked at some of the links -- and the links they linked.
Getting color right is difficult with "video cameras" taking the pictures and presenting them on "electronic video screens" or "electronic projectors" -- versus taking on film and projecting by sending light through film.
Part of the problem on the desktop (or in one's home TV screen) is the difference in how different TVs and Monitors present color. Some do a good job and some don't. For example, only Plasma or OLED TVs and monitors come close to presenting the full "contrast range" in each individual "frame" that comes up (QLED tries). But, most folks don't watch on Plasma or OLED; thus, they don't see the contrasts the camera saw. And, on and on.

Hmm, maybe I don't notice this as much on newer films because my home theater screen is set to 9700k color temperature, which brightens the picture quite a bit and makes things "pop." Still, older movies do often have a broader color palette, especially stuff from the 70s.
I have found playing with color temperature helps with things other than movies, too. I can't spot aerial targets for poop in DCS World, I'm incredibly blind. But if I set my temps to 9700 and turn on dynamic contrast ratios, they are a bit easier to find--but still dang hard. I need a 100 inch monitor.

What bothers me even more is that the default setting on many tv's is way too sharp. Googled it and apparently this is called the Soap Opera effect - which is indeed exactly what it looks like to me.
Undercarriage lever a bit sticky was it, Sir?

Soap opera effect has nothing to do with sharpness, it's about frame interpolation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_interpolation
