Haven't got/seen this one on BD yet, but...don't you think that everything you can see in the BD was also visible to the filmgoers 50 years ago? Isn't that what we want?

You're supposed to suspend disbelief. Frankly, seeing a wire or painting bothers me no more than having 50 people shooting at a modern hero and all missing, yet the hero scores with each shot. Requires the same mental "technique"...

Easier to suspend disbelief with the standard DVD. The blu-ray adds nothing in my opinion, just makes the flaws more visible. That's all I'm saying. Don't try to insinuate anything else.

  I'm not insinuating anything, I'm blatantly saying it: you seem to be complaining because the BD looks more like the film does. Unless you think the BD producers inserted artifacts just for you to see...there's the insinuation you seem to be looking for.
