It's hard to beat that feeling when one of your favorite movies finally gets an HD release. That makes for a hard dose of reality if the quality doesn't wow in the way we expect a Blu-ray to. Sure, the DVD looked pretty crummy the last time you watched it, but this Blu-ray… could it actually be worse?!
In this episode of Retro Tech Select, we'll dissect the images of two Blu-ray releases that beg the question if they were worth the upgrade at all. In the process, we'll take a typical nostalgic glance at the video formats of yesteryear, and determine if there's real merit of sticking to older releases of the films you love - or if it's time to pony up and buy the new discs.
