One film that came out worse for wear being colorized was "Night of the Living Dead." It was originally shot in b&w and someone decided to colorize it. The color choices for the 1st zombie in the graveyard (skin and clothes) were terrible (IMO). Granted some do come out not too bad (Captains Courageous comes to mind) but some of the flavor of the original is still lost, and I think the same can be said if someone tries to re-write a classic book. The word choice that the original author made is part of the tapestry of the book. Change that and the whole thing threatens to unravel.
