Crush refers to luminance being cut-off at the low end. When color correction is mishandled as was on the Star Wars Blu-ray, the range of luminance “0” through “13”, for example, is all mashed down into blotchs of “0”. Detail is lost, but so is the balance of the picture, which starts to look like an artificial, high contrast.
