Amen to that bruh. Different is my stock in trade.

I don't bother trying to select films or TV shows with a lot of color, I just go with what I like. I was taking screenshots and trying to make videos of Corner Gas for a while. I love a good thriller, and Orphan (2009) is my favorite to date. There isn't a lot of color but it's good for grayscale demos. For me, part of its appeal is the Winter backdrop and that most of it was filmed in Ontario where the pictured set was made. Also, the year the set was made is mentioned in the film; I won't say why here.

I can't get great screenshots with my camera but it's a lot easier to get a picture without a highly visible hum bar with the new run cap installed.
