|
|
I have seen this movie many times over the years. I've seen it via NTSC OTA, DirecTV sub-SDTV, on DVD, and on DirecTV HD (either MGM HD or HDnet movies) and this Blu-ray offering is one of the worse offerings I have ever seen. Up until now, I thought the Spawn BD was terrible, but I think this one takes the f*cking Do Not Buy cake.
I swear I could have gotten the same piss-poor quality by taping it on plain VHS via NTSC OTA from a local television station in 1983. While I like the movie, this is one movie that cannot get around the shittiest transfer award condition bestowed upon it. I swear I thought someone snuck a VHS on me.
And I've seen better transfers from movies I've bought in the $4.99 bin.
DO NOT BUY THIS Blu-ray!!!

So, I'm not really clear on this... You're saying the PQ isn't very good, Wan?

I gather they want us to forget(if we haven't already) the "illustrious" one time only portrayal of James Bond by George Lazenby.

I take it all back! Lazenby's one-time only portrayal of Bond was in "On Her Majesty's Secret Service, NOT "Casino Royale".
