I wouldn't be at all surprised if in a couple of years' time there'll be a new super-duper even more remastered edition. I guess this is also kind of inevitable, as it was with DVD. As companies get to grips with the BD format and encoding techniques improve (which they undoubtedly will) there'll be new editions of films that haven't fared well on BD so far - like Maniac.

For me, I think The Good, The Bad and The Ugly needs a totally ne remaster. The MGM one just doesn't look right to me eyes. Image detail seems lacking and the DNR appears to have been used over-zealously resulting in a rather soft image lacking in fine detail. I also expect this one to get another overhaul in the future.

I may check that out, its still in my too watch pile. Still only £12 from CEX for all three dollars films so no loss.
