Dead Man on Blu-ray
“Dead Man” Plot:
Dead Man is the story of a young man’s journey, both physically and spiritually, into very unfamiliar terrain. William Blake travels to the extreme western frontiers of America sometime in the 2nd half of the 19th century. Lost and badly wounded, he encounters a very odd, outcast Native American, named “Nobody,” who believes Blake is actually the dead English poet of the same name. The story, with Nobody’s help, leads William Blake through situations that are in turn comical and violent. Contrary to his nature, circumstances transform Blake into a hunted outlaw, a killer, and a man whose physical existence is slowly slipping away. Thrown into a world that is cruel and chaotic, his eyes are opened to the fragility that defines the realm of the living. It is as though he passes through the surface of a mirror, and emerges into a previously-unknown world that exists on the other side.
Johnny Depp, Crispin Glover, Lance Henriksen.

Should they colorize old black&white movies?
No. Colorization sucks.
No, it ruins the effect of the cinematography and lighting, some of which is brilliant! Colorizing the old films is just an attempt to make the films more appealing to the masses, usually in vain anyway.
Yes, but still maintain the B and W version and people can chose what they want to watch!
Absolutly not!
No!
They should leave them as they are.
Sure, but still keep the old black and white since those are CLASSICS!
It’s seemingly been a hit & miss trend over the years with colorization & digital remastering, etc. I always think about The Wizard of Oz and how different it looked post-B&W =).
I love the old black and white and they don’t need to change
Definitely not
If the time is taken to do it well, I think colorizing is fine as more people will watch a color film. But I do think the original black and white version should be offered as well.
Not if it was a bad movie to begin with! The better ones are worth the effort.
Absolutely not!
no
NO
No
No it always comes across as fake and takes away from the classic look
NO
definitely no
No
Yes I should have the option if I wanted it. The world is a vibrant place that has always been full of color. When you were watching anything in Black and White you have been brainwashed all those years. If you are colorblind, please disregard this message.
Nope
No
No.
no
NO! NO! HELL NO! BLASPHEMY!
Sure if they are good ones.
sure why not? the option would be cool.
As long as they leave the option of viewing the original B&W, yes.
NO!!!!!!!
To have the option would be nice
NO
As an option
Sure, why not? Then you can watch them either or both ways if you want.
definitely not.
Never!
Offer both
yes
If they want to.
no
No. Restore their original black and white if it hasn’t been done already, but don’t colorize them.
I like movies when they are remastered, but not changed. It’s like a classic car restoration.
No-most would be ruined if colorized
yes ! new look brings new perception
Depends on the movie.
no
no, it would ruin them
yes, some look better than just b&w
no
no + it looks terrible
no.why??
NO!!!
No, keep it so.
No classics should stay as is.
NO, no and no!
No.
Definitely not! I find that the colour in colourized movies is absolutely horrible…it often looks pastel-like and not very realistic at all. Also, it plays havoc with shadows…can you imagine a classic film noir being colourized? It would take some of the mystery and suspense out of the entire movie. Any kind of art should be kept as the artist intended, IMO…when deviating from what was intended, it bastardizes the original. Nope, please keep my B&W movies B&W instead of dipping them in yucky Easter egg colours!
if its a movie that needs or more appealing when its colored then yes some movies can be colored
Yes some movies benefit from being colorized
I believe the movies should remain as they were made originally. They may repair a bit like scratchy sounds etc. but not the color . That is the fun of being nostalgic and just sitting and watching an old movie.
Oh no they shouldn’t colorize old movies they are black and white for a reason bc they are old and need to stay that way lol :-)
god, no
No
No.
No, because that is taking away the power, the impact, and the director’s original vision of the films when they were first released.
No way.
No
No, their true character would be lost!
I don’t think they should colorize old black & white movies..no leave them the way they are…classic! I had this in a VHS once but I no longer have aVHS player ….But i do have a Blu-ray player & this would go great in my Johnny Depp collection…hint…hint …wink..wink!;)
Definitely not!
no way…theres nothing wrong with a black and white movie
n0
No.
no
Why not colorize, if you still have a choice to watch the B&W version I don’t have a problem with it.
yes
No
Not all of them some are better in color and some are not depending on the movie.
There is something lost when they add colour to black and white movies so I vote NO!
yes
Yes. The black and white version would still be available and everyone can watch the film how they wish.
no I believe classics should stay as original as possible that is what makes them classics
no
No way!
only in Neon………….
No they should not. That’s why they are classics.
No, they should stay in black and white.
No.
no
only some of them
I like black and white movies and only a few have really been improved by colorizing them.
Absolutely NOT! Black and white movies have a nostalgic feel that cannot be compared to color movies! PLUS with almost every movie now being made in 3D (which is ridiculous!) it’s nice to be able to watch a movie and feel like you’re back in the 1930s!!
No.
Old black & white movies are great just the way they were made
no way… u can’t beat the original… I told my kids that until 1957, the entire world was 50 shades of gray….then, they invented colour and the world changed…
Holiday Inn is way better colorized so I suppose it depends on the genre, like musicals.
yes, they should.
I say leave them as they are.. Nothing like an old black and white move..:)
I’d say only for audience demanded titles.
depends on the movie
No
No, lets keep them the way they were meant to be shown
Sure, if it’ll help bring the film to a new audience. Keep the original intact as an alternative of course.
No. Leave it the way it is!
No.
Sure!! I can choose whether to watch or not!
No, I love the old B&W movies just the way they are. They should be restored if necessary but please leave them B&W.
NO! Not at all, Thats what makes them classics
No, mostly it just looks fake.
No, if they colorize movies they will lose some of their charm.
sure
no! that’s what makes black and white soo vintage,the shadows and lighting give it character
NO! Do not colorize Black and White movies!
No
No!
NO,l eave them as they were
no it takes away the greatness of them
NO -they are works of art.
Not this one.
no
no
yes definitely would be a great idea!!
It depends on the movie. Some of the old thrillers should stay in black and white. It adds to the overall feel of the movie.
I think they look like they arent real when they have been colorized
leave B&W alone
Unless the color looks natural, not like it has been added later. then just leave it as originally made,
no, they are black and white for a reason…and we want it kept that way! i have very fond memories of the movies i watched with my parents and grandparents, especially miracle on 34th street
No. They should leave them the way they are.
Yes
No!
No
No! I prefer the original version!
I would actually like to see them in both on the same dvd. The younger generation seems to only want color but this might entice them to see the black and white and appreciate the classics. I love the black and white!
No
i love the black and movies. However, I do think they should colorize these classics to make the favorites for every generation. Instead of lost and unknown
No!
no they should leave them the way they are
no
No like them the way they are.
Depends. Some movies are just better black and white.
no no no….actually I wish they would make more black and while movies…
Should be available in both.
No, don’t mess with the classics! They shouldn’t even remake them, but Hollywood has run out of original ideas.
no
No, especially when you you consider the success of movies like Frankenweenie. Just has a certain feel.. what if wizard of oz had all been in colour…
Oh no, That’s why they are so great!!!
No, they should’t colorize old black&white movies.
depends on the movie
No way jose
No. They should stay black and white.
Why not?!? It makes the movie more interesting…options ARE good! :)
no
No!
No they should not colorize old black and white movies.
Yes I think so!
Classics should remain classics, in their original format. Colorizing provides a fresh look, but can take away from the original form.
Never!
No keep them classic Black and white!
hell no…
Leave classics alone , plus they have yet to develope a good color transfer of B&W to color , so no .
i think they should colorize old b&w movies!!
Certain movies would like awesome, but I believe they should have it ok’d by the director, writer, etc.
Yes because there were colors back then, just not colored film. I love watching the movies in color especially Gone With The Wind and The Wizard of Oz!
No! They should not colorize old black and white movies!
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!
No
no, it loses the charm
Sure, why not? People are acting like if black and white movies were colorized, the original black and white version would be erased from existence.
no i dont think they should, they are classic for a reason!
No! Leave the classics as they were meant to be!
no way Jose
No
No leave the classics alone!
no
No
Some yes! Others No! lol
No I think they should leave movies the way they are. Black and white movies don’t need to be colorized.
