Um seine Behauptung zu beweisen, dass Filmposter die letzten Jahre dunkler und blaustichiger geworden sind, hat Vijay Pandurangan die Thumbnails von 35.000 Filmpostern runtergeladen, jeweils deren Pixel gezählt,
nach Jahr gruppiert und Farbton sortiert. Nerds!
The movies whose posters I analysed "cover a good range
of genres. Perhaps the colors say less about how movie posters' colors
as a whole and color trends, than they do about how genres of movies
have evolved. For example, there are more action/thriller/sci-fi [films]
than there were 50-70 years ago, which might have something to do with
the increase in darker, more 'masculine' shades.
