    Wow, everyone is saying green or brown!

    I personally think blue. Blue shows the calm and peace of the film (compared to the rest of the films) and the galaxy before the dark times (before the Empire ;) ). Then the is also for the sadness at the end, with Qui-Gon's death, but the hope for the future that still lies with Anakin.

    Each of the colors I listed signifies the colors of the planet and signifies the mood of the galaxy at the time of the movie.

    TPM- Green, spring time, the golden age, the good times. Naboo

    AOTC- Blue, April showers, the approaching storm. Kamino.

    EP3- Red, Anger, hate, heat, fire, hot. The lava planet.

    ANH- Brown, Autumn. Tatooine.

    TESB- White, winter, the darkness of winter. Hoth and Bespin.

    ROTJ- Dark Green, right after winter, End of the Dark Ages. Endor

    ANH : grey (the industrial look of the Empire)
    ESB : black (the grimmest time for the good guys)

    I don't know why, but I think pink when I consider the color of TPM. Watch the movie and then watch AOTC and then TPM again. You will notice a slight "pinkish" hue to everything if you pay attention. I always associated it with the "lighter" mood of the movie. That, or the camera wasn't digital (as in AOTC) and so it appeared differently.

    That was a cool post, rpeugh! Nice job. TPM has to be the most vibrantly colored SW movie! I usually think of it as blue or white, though.

    I'd have to say red. I don't know why but that was first thing I thought of when I saw this thread. Probably becuase there was a lot of red in the film.

    AOTC - Brown
    ANH - White or gray
    ESB - Blue
    ROTJ - Green

    Well, I have to say that I am very disappointed with the resident bashers. They have the perfect set-up for a joke and squander it. Here goes...

    BASHER: "Blue. As in TPM blue."

    Blue. Seemingly peaceful, but very close in the spectrum to red, the color of danger.

    You can rationalize color really easily if you want.
