The Blue Underground release is exemplary so far as I am concerned.
I will be happy to reassess this should Arrow's corrected version ever see the light of day at a bargain price, because as I see it there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON (for me) to buy another BD version of this film. Not even for the tiny amount of extra frame at either side (though if anything could persuade me, it is this).
This is just my personal view. All I can presume is that unless a transfer looks like it was shot through a swarm of fruit flies, some people are never going to be happy with Blu-Ray. |
I sought of agree here.
When i first watched the BU disc, the detail WAS impeccable.
But im going to make a new word here, and the Arrow release is impeccabler.
