Really cool idea, but it's hard to get a grasp of the trends at this level.
One of the handful I can pick up is that earlier films tend to have stronger brighter yellows in them that have faded almost completely out, but I have no idea why or what that means.
What I'd implore you to do is to give me some more low-level data to explore (maybe show me a full picture of the poster with the film title when I hover over a color palette), make it easier to spot trends (perhaps flatten everything into a single column to make it easier to compare them), and give me more high-level information (average out the colors of a decade as "the average color scheme of the 200Xs," show me the most popular color of the 1930s compared to the 1970s).
This is certainly cool, but I can't do anything with it.
I really appreciate the feedback! I guess the Best Picture nominees don't give you a great range of what was popular, so this needs to be expanded. I'd love to be able to do general color schemes by decade or year. This was just an afternoon project, so I'll definitely do more with this.
