Paint It Black

The color chart below put together by Armin Vit represents the distribution of top grossing movies by rating (NC-17 on the top G on the bottom). According to the spectrum the Sin City colors—blood (or red lipstick) and darkness/passion and danger—sell adult movies while earth tones and blues attract the kiddies. I know these deductions are no-brainers but it's impressive to see an adult world juxtaposed with a child’s eye. Tip of the hat to BoingBoing.
