I haven't seen Disney's Wish because, I'll be honest, it didn't look appealing to me. I have though listened to a lot of critiques by people that have. Beyond the general ‘it isn’t what it could have been' consensus, one thing I saw as a ...

The 31 May 2021 article related to “Color Theory as a Rewind Machine” mentioned how colors could be used intentionally as a way to transport the reader to different time periods. At the end, I posed the question whether anyone had ever used a specific decade’s color palette in ...
