In Reply to: RE: North By Northwest on blu-ray - skip it! posted by Dalton on November 08, 2009 at 12:56:08
Yes, the flaws are more visible, but so is everything else, and, speaking for myself, I became aware of all sorts of wonderful details that I had overlooked in the past, such as the details on the painting on the wall in the hotel restaurant near the beginning. The Blu-ray really made me see the movie with new eyes. The sound quality is still so-so (although even here, I think it's superior to the DVD), but I found the colors superior on the Blu-ray, and to me, this is a truly fine restoration job.

I don't own it, so I saw NBNW on someone else's HT Set-up, a 60"+ Panny plasma.
But I thought the BD was better in every way than the DVD, and the color was excellent. I've seen this on the big screen, and this is the closest I've gotten at home to that experience. COnsidering the source material, I think the BD is very good.
I was fine with Forbidden Planet too - you can't expect FX from 40 and 50 years ago to have the detail and realism of current CGI. I'm easily able to overlook those things for all the other advanatges we've gained in these BDs of classic film. It's simply not possible to go back and digitally redo all the great effects shots from classic movies...nor should we want to.
