Unless my memory fails me, Turner colorized a bunch of old black and white movies. Are these colorized versions still around or did people decide that they hate them? I honestly don’t know.

Modern colorizations look far, far better, like "They Will Not Be Forgotten" where WW1 footage was colorized. A lot of people cried "Abomination" when Turner did that, saying he was destroying the old films, but nothing of the sort happened. Just like someone photoshopping color onto an old Civil War picture (a popular thing to do) the originals are undamaged. People do really great jobs colorizing old photos, it just brings them to life. I have several in my wallpaper folder.
