What's with all the racists on IMDB complaining about coloreds?

Seller, clever subject line. Myself, I prefer (mostly) to watch high-def B&W films that were originally filmed in that format. However, I do not believe that colorization is necessarily a descecration of a director's cherished choice of filming in B&W. After all, up to a certain point in movie history, B&W was common as dirt, the usual way of filming/printing a film. I don't see that a reverent, very careful, clear colorization can hurt most B&W movies, except those for which B&W is "obviously" the way to go (Casablanca, The Song of Bernadette, It's a Wonderful Life - and too many other renowned and agreed-upon classics. But 50s sci-fi? I doubt that most of those films were shot/printed with The Eye of the Artiste carefully, zealously, and jealously prepared to defend B&W to the death.

On the contrary, I would guess that a fair amount of directors and fx experts might take some joy in seeing their films "grow beyond" their B&W roots. This, of course, is all predicated on the principles I mentioned above - that the print be clear, sharp, and the color "true". I realize that Harryhausen wasn't pleased with the color of ICFBS's octopus, but again, that's BAD colorization. I am interested in what GOOD colorization could do to/and/for some of the old B&W sci-fi films (and maybe some Westerns). I don't think colorization is, in every case, insulting, cheap, or misapplied.
