Why was it so blue in the Middle Ages?
BECAUSE THE MOVIE INDUSTRY IS FUCKING CREATIVELY BANKRUPTLIKE HOLY SHIT DOES ANYBODY NOT KNOW THAT?
>>222570072>called the dark ages>make the films darkbravo <insert retarded british director>
>>222570072Meanwhile in the horrible oppressive past
>>222570072Isn't cool how every medieval slop looks like the air was more polluted before the industrial age?
>>222570072Have you ever been to the UK? it really is that dark and gloomy
>>222570072Colors didn't exist until The Gays 'descended' from 'heaven' and granted us all six colors of the rainbow.
>>222570610I wish I have been fucking frazzled by the sun for the last month.
>>222570132the dark ages barely lasted until the 700s-800s. There's virtually Z E R O (0) (0) (0)ERO(0)movies ever made about the period
>>222570072>>222570566Long cloudy winters with long nights and short days is what evolved the White man from Neanderthal. Stuff like blue eyes are a low-light adaptation to the long nights.
>>222571187because it didn't happen, it's a phantom age, a fiction of later times.don't ask me how I know this
It tests well? Or, or we must betray our western path
>>222570072Those are Ridley Scott movies, anon. It's normal
>>222570072Because everything is blue for me and myself and everything around me But that top left image is soulful
>>222571231you're an idiot
>>222570072Because to jews that era was bleak and devoid of any light
Why do you faggots cry about this but not saving private ryan?
>>222570072Yo, listen up, here's the storyAbout a little guy that lives in a blue worldAnd all day and all night and everything he seesIs just blue, like him, inside and outsideBlue his house with a blue little window and a blue CorvetteAnd everything is blue for him and himself and everybody around'Cause he ain't got nobody to listen
>>222571694It's every older period picture. It's grim void at this point
>>222571844Makes a nigga wanna rewatch Deadwood for the millionth time at this point. God bless Milich RIP
>>222571237I don't have to ask because I know it, it's because you're a ruski.
>>222571694Misrepresenting the middle ages has an implicit political message, encouraging the viewer to denounce the 'unenlightened' past and to sure up support for modernity with its myriad woes.
>>222571231>evolved the White man from Neanderthalthats not what happened, the neanderthal is extinct, all races apart from sub saharan africans have a 1 or 2 percent admixture of neanderthal DNA, with koreans being the highest percentage, sub saharan africans have their own admixture of archaic hominid, homo erectus (20%) pictured
>>222570072Every Hollywood Medieval story that takes place in a small town is all about how it's dirty and colorless and how the (writer's insert) character want to move to the big city. The exact opposite of historical reality.
>>222570610I did and it was pretty nice and mild,brits just complain about the weather because they couldn't complain about the niggers
>>222571887thats the joke yes
>>222570072the same reason Mexico is yellow
>>222570072go to some rural area where is no 24/7 light poisoning and witness how dark it can gets
morning fog, that's how it used to look like before industrial scale farming
>>222570072they were in need of a guy
Balmy tropical sunny equatorial medieval Europe
>>222570072Because if it was green I would die.
>>222570132>>222571187>dark ages
>>222570132>>222573513But those shots aren't dark; they're blue.
>>222570072Medieval Europe in movies
>>222570297Looks like we humans loves to look and smell good even in the past...
>>222570072I mean, it does look like that in basically all of northern europe most of the year (see: >>222574481)
>>222571926Meds. Take em.
Even peasants wore brightly colored clothes. Madder red you can make out of weeds that grow in your own back yard.
>>222570072Little ice age, less solar energy.
>>222570072Its cold, like someone splashed you with some cold blue blue water -very fresh
>>222570297that's Italy, which is almost Mexico
>>222570072What would medieval mexico look like?
>>222570072Look into color psychology. It's used all the time to evoke an emotional reaction.
>>222570297I was enjoying myself until Heston showed up.You bastard
>>222576758Green obviously.
>>222571844It’s not even just period pieces. Every “serious” film has to have a cold muted color palette. Pseuds really like drab boring films cause it makes them think something “deep” most be happening that “normies” can’t understand.
>>222576239Not an argument
>>222571887I support Heinsohn's hypothesis, not Fomenko's
>>222570072There was a miniature ice age. The muted blue pallet actually makes sense but chuds want everything be in technicolor because warm colors make them feel safe.
>>222578011Most of the middle ages was part of the medieval warm period. The little ice age was more of a early modern thing.
>>222578011>this nigga think they had miniature wooly mammoths in them days
>>222577839Edit: Ive moved past Heston now and am back to enjoying it -sans pants
>>222570072That's how it was.
>>222570072Oh money money peepee hole, oh money money peepee hole.
>>222570297Are you telling me there is an artist out there having an existential crisis about whether to work for Trump or not? Id struggle with that myself, ngl
>>222570072It was colder before climate change happened
>>222578512Winter was winter and summer was fresh
>>222570072Europe was less white back then compared to today.
evil jews want to trick everyone into thinking it was worse in the past than it is now
>>222570297this just looks silly, like clown university.>>222570072This looks much better to set the mood (no internet so everything was very boring)
>da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di, da ba dee da ba di
>>222570072grey and brown colorgrading in ancient history films was invented by ridley in the movie gladiator
>>222570072The famous listerine filter.
>>222580125The entire point is to make the past ugly. It is literally a gloom filter. When you see recreations of the past that aren't uglified, it inspires and uplifts you. Which makes you realize how twisted and ugly our current hell world is. By uglfying recreations of the past they are demoralizing and indoctrinating you to suffer the world today as it is without question.
>>222571329Yabba dabba dee da be da
>>222570072because modern Hollywood are trash on fire
>>222572471Actually, urbanization was a big part of the later medieval era. Though it was more driven by the rise of mercantile interests in the city, and opportunities for work that arose in the wake of the Black Death. Turns out depopulating huge swathes of Europe creates labor shortages that make old feudal institutions like serfdom untenable. Peasants going into the late medieval period were more mobile, and economic focus shifted from the countryside to the urban centers.
>>222570072because the Earth was in a different orbit and that filtered out most red light wavelengths
The real explanation is that the British empire happened. History and how we view it is shaped by the British.When people talk about the dark ages, about the medieval times, everyone thinks of the UK and how shit the times were. Even if the story isn't set in the UK, it looks like the UK.For the British those were bleak times and it's still bleak today. I lived in the UK for years and it feels like living with medieval peasants but they are wearing cheap Chinese clothes. It's like medieval peasants wearing Adidas.The UK gained enough power and influence to write history because Europeans invented guns, manufactured them and sold them to the Brits. Brits who had never conquered anything in their life, never won a war, now they had guns and they just sailed to any country they could find that didn't have guns yet and they took over. This made them very rich and they could afford to buy more things from Europe and build them in the UK, like the printing press and write their history and spread their culture.There are basically two types of medieval times portrayed in the mainstream. The bleak no colors blue grey everything is shit British version, and the bright colorful honor and joy of Italian medieval times.
>>222570072cuz they didaint seizon they foo
>>222571237You time traveling cunt. Go back to your era.
>>222570072Cowboy movies also suffer from lack of color in modern day productions.
>>222570072seems like a daring departure from mud and gray to me
gay cocks
>>222581506I am John Titor and right now I am coming round to your house to do big shits in every pair of trousers you own.
>>222581161Calm down, Ranjesh.
>>222577982>>222571887>>222571237
>>222579036>gara>not rock leetrash
>>222570072Recommend some medieval movies with this esthetic.
It was cold and dark.
>>222583391not a single ray of sunshine
>>222570072>Why was it so blue in the Middle Ages?Because if they were green, they would die.
>>222580281nigga that looks like shit get a grip boomer ass
>>222571694Saving Private Ryan is desaturated because it’s trying to invoke footage of the era, same with Band of Brothers. Wheres the medieval combat footage?
>>222580125these shots are so fucking stupid.>"Mr Scott we finished the CGI of ancient Ro-">"THIS IS WAY TOO FUCKING SMALL, MAKE EVERYTHING 5 TIMES LARGER">"b-but that isn't historically accur-">"WERE YOU THERE MATE?! NO? THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP.">"OH, AND MAKE IT 5 TIMES DARKER AND BLUER."
>>222580281Technicolor sucks. Just light the movie and grade it correctly.
>>222583910Image proves otherwise faggot
>>222583877this is some warhammer level bullshit
>>222583877>>222580125>here's that random megastructure we built with basic pulleys
>>222580814What even is this movie?
>>222570072How come there are no forests in modern medieval movies
>>222570297>wow look at all these vibrant fabrics and precious metals that means life was good n shiet
>>222570072They didn't know red existedGreeks for example didn't have blue color, so it's very colorful in here
>>222571887what am I look....you know what? I don't caredon't reply to me
>>222584521Because there are no forests in modern Europe to film in.
I would guess this grading makes easier to film in locations with inconsistent weather or lighting conditions and makes those location look more cinematic
>>222583804The color looks nothing like combat footage, which is black and white.
>>222583804>>222585821https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LZglP4kQsE
>>222586107The shit with color was colorized by artists
>>222570072
>>222583877
>>222587169much better
