If it wasn't as lazy as Turner's Kong it might look good. Colorization just hasn't been there as an option because the colors always sucked. I'm sure nowadays they could use colors that were true to form. I think certain fifties sci fi movies might be cool, just as a DVD feature or something. Only showing colorized things or colorizing everything is of course stupid. If somebody colorized Vampyr or Eyes Without a Face for example, it would suck, but color was often not used because it wasn't an option budgetwise instead of for artistic reasons. I'm sure a lot of directors who couldn't afford color film would be thrilled to see what their movies would have looked like if they had the means. The colorized It Came From Beneath the Sea looks awesome and Harryhausen was glad to see it.
