Earth & Water Stuff
As seen throughout the film, the ocean is red. I'm sure like most people I pissed mountains when I saw that first shot. However, there are several instances during Ramiels first appearance where the ocean and rivers are clearly blue.
Continuity error? Are certain water sources unnaffected?

Do we know for sure it's not just that one area that has red water? Oh, right, we saw Earth from the last shot on the moon and it had red oceans, didn't it? Ne'er mind. It may just be difficult to remember that water is always supposed to be red in natural locations (but having red water during the bath scene would just be weird).
It'd be a shame if we already encountered a big continuity error like this, though admittedly it's just in the art and not a problem with the story itself.

That was a hilarious thread. Wasn’t he banned?
Anyway, it would make sense for freshwater bodies to be a different color. A real life parallel would be salinity. If the ocean is salty why aren’t the rivers? The simple answer is that lakes and rivers are replenished by a different source of water then the oceans (ground water). Simply stated, whatever is making the ocean red would not travel upstream for the same reasons that salt doesn’t.

THis has a shot of the earth. Make of it as you will.
I dunno if the blue at earth's edges has something to do with atmosphere, or if a 3rd of the ocean or so is red, or what...

Yes, the blue at the edges does appear atmospheric, since the rest is all red...

Just a thought... the pure water (H2O) is "always blue" (I know it isn't depends on lots of things). Now, the components that you can add may shift the color... soo if the ocean somehow (after EoE world?!) has LCL components thus making it red, my guess is that the rivers and lakes are still blue because of the water cycle (it is purified when it evaporates and when it rains it is "blue water").
don't know if the blue water that we see, in the movie, is from a ocean but, if it isn't that I guess this "theory" is somehow correct

Even the bathwater is red!

Hold it right there, V...you've been going on this long enough! I'll get back to ya all shortly.
Edit: There is a lot of ordinary blue or muddy brown water in the movie. The garish red is reserved for the oceans. Note that the swimming pool, a much larger body of water than that bathtub, has sparkling blue water.

The bath-tub itself seems pinkish, and notice the censorship of the bodies below the waterline. Take a look at the swimming pool or the vastly huger Fuji lakes. Those aren't red!

maybe they are not red (the lakes) because they flow out to the sea??

Ever since when did anyone use seawater in a bathtub? Of course the lakes are all blue...the scene where the VTOLS are flying over the mountains has a shot of red oceans while lakes only few kilometers inland are perfectly okay. 2I seems to have fouled all ocean water on Earth. I wonder if there are any seaweed or saltwater fish products in Rebuild- deterioration in marine life would seem logical. For that matter, whatever is coloring the oceans red would remain in the oceans and not spread through the water cycle to other water bodies.
