See also [[Template:Overcolored]], they aren't harmless, they're actively bad for some readers.

Even if a colored Reception table was a good idea in general and lots of other film articles were doing it that way, (it isn't and they aren't) in this article it is a particularly bad idea because the colors are all too similar.

Colors again. They're a bad idea when they're overused and they've been objected to before repeatedly see Talk:List_of_Pixar_films/Archive_1#COLORS. See also Template:Overcolored, they aren't harmless, they're actively bad for some readers.

Even if a colored Reception table was a good idea in general and lots of other film articles were doing it that way, (it isn't and they aren't) in this article it is a particularly bad idea because the colors are all too similar. There's only one significant outlier and that's Cars 2.
