Have a look here:

If the link somehow doesn't work (Creative Cow) do a search on 'Creating a Summer Blockbuster Film Look'

It's not exactly the same look but gives you an idea.

I know it's shot on film but like to know if it can be achieve with digital. or if film is there any spacial develop needed for that cross prossesing stuff like that?

What a beautiful looking film - here's the highest definition trailer I could find for it:

It'd be useful to see a clip of it in higher definition so you could see the grain better (or at all) as I think getting that right would be key to getting this look without using film. As for the color and contrast - that'd be much "easier" I'm thinking maybe some selective clamping or posterization and saturation adjustments of separated color channels to get what I would describe as an older "technicolor" look. This is a look I'd love to try to achieve on Red (I'm sure I would succeed) but it would be really cool to just pick out the proper film stock and just shoot it with that look embedded.

It's nice we now have the choice to do it either way

Yes it's nice look movie . Maybe a technicolor look is some how near by that but if you notice theres some nice tones on the look that hardly can achive by digital or at least need a perfect colorist and also special customes and set desigen

Hi frnds, am a newbie here.. To my knowledge, i can suggest you the following ideas:

1. Use Digital (RED MX)
2. Color Temprature: 6000 to 7200
3. ISO: 400 (Try various ISO's ranging 320 to 500 - Depending on yo environment lighting)

Post production (Use redcine-x for color correction):

1. Change the Color Space: REDcolor2
2. Change the Gamma Space: REDgamma2
3. Tint: -8 ~ -6
4. Saturation: 1.15 ~ 1.25 (adjust as per your requirement)
5. Lower the highlights value if needed.
6. Increase the Dark & Shadows.
7. Decrease the gamma value (to reduce visible grains).

Just give it a try & share your experience
