Black and White mode

This probably wont be a popular idea for a feature but I think it's pretty neat.

 

I would like to be able to play some of my films in black and white mode(grayscale); it could be enabled in the settings before/during playback. I have done this using the videoplayer called Videolan(VLC), and the results are usually incredible. Here are a few example of films where this is worth trying:

 

A Clockwork Orange (1971)

The Godfather (1972)

The Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

Blade Runner (1982)

The Crow (1994)

Yeah, director Steven Soderbergh does this (along with replacing the soundtrack) to better understanding staging in movies: http://extension765.com/sdr/18-raiders#sthash.2eHdcugh.dpuf
