DREDD is a better movie just on colour pallet alone because gently caress orange and blue. Fury Road abuses those colours almost to the point it almost killed the movie for me.

The problem with the O/B in FR is that they crank up the O/B saturation well over what is naturally there. It's beyond obnoxious, its abusive. Take a quick google image search on Mad Max and you will see how asinine the colour pallet is.

Snak posted:as far as I know, people hate it because it's common. It's common because it's a good style. Like anything, it can be done poorly. Fury Road is great and it's visual style is not in any way a negative. They might have well shot FR in Black and White since they almost eliminated every other colour. O/B is a super lazy way to make an image "Pop" because they are contrasting colours and people are a little orange hence the opposite is "Blue". It is almost universally a negative as it is done in post and only serves to destroy colour. It also has a nasty side effect of making CGI more obvious since it brings out mismatched elements because of the "Pop". There are good uses of Orange and Blue is when it is baked into the scene like in "Drive" or using unusual film stock in Three Kings. John Wick also does this well by enhancing only the blue so you don't have white people turn into Orange people and when orange does show up, there is a reason for it. The video game equivalent of this is the "brown" filter in an attempt to make everything gritty.

Check the original Mad Max. The problem is he went too far. Go do an Image search and look at the un-doctored photos of the scenes. It was a deliberate choice on his part to abuse it to the extent that he did.
