Believe me, I played with adjustments like crazy on HP7a, and it stayed dank and dark. (Though it was WAAAY worse when I tried it on my DLP projection system) Mind you, I dislike the desaturated or hue-shifted look of so much current summer blockbuster cinema. It doesn't heighten mood for me. It just seems like lazy post production fiddling. Real cinematography should involve how the set was lit, not Adobe filters. Getting old and cranky.
