Yeah, thats it. Also, some TVs can only show what they can show, meaning that dark scene detail is limited which mimics a "dark" image. LCDs and cheaper LEDs suffer from this issue of crushed blacks and or washed out dark scenes.

I'm not going to laugh (even do I kind of did ) but I see your point, some new remasters do look a bit dark. It's just dark colors though, but I don't want to adjust my tv to see it the way I want to. Sorry I laughed, your presentation of this thread was hilarious though

They have controlled contrast. You're probably used to overblown contrast.
