I think it makes sense. I dunno, as of right now, I feel like the garishness helped establish a serious shift in tone within certain scenes, effective like an Argento flick, y'know? Like the normal coloring in the scene with Jim and Babs, then then BAM, the Joker at the door. Serious shock, even nightmarish. Now it's just, "Whup, there's the Joker. Hey there." Or the fun house, the fun house sequence really could have used more garish colors. It's meant to be a surreal soul-crushing nightmare!

At this moment, I sorta feel like the garishness of certain parts would play off the seriously improved dank realism of the new edition. I almost fear the tone is too uniform now, know what I mean? No gradation, apart from the flashbacks and modern stuff.

However, there's a hell of a lot going on in Bolland's new coloring that doesn't pop out at first glance. He's invested a hell of a lot of nuance and subtlety into this new work that will require serious study and comparison before I can make a final judgment.

I noticed that edit too, and I love it.

If you do a comparison, I'd absolutely love to hear your thoughts.
