The English Patient, Jaws, Aliens, Alien(though I understand there is now a third DVD version) Halloween, the Exorcist(though there is yet another fixed up version on DVD).

Lots of DVDs are way better than the LD versions especially the older LDs like Airplane!, The Producers, Young Frankenstein, American Werewolf in London etc that had pretty lousy LD transfers. But there is the key word --- TRANSFER. The LD medium was excellent. Same for DVD. Some just had better transfers. A new English Patient is coming out which should fix it up - and Aliens will have the noise and pixilation fixed up I'm sure.
