Just watched this one. All I can say is Chairman Wow!.

Out of the 450 Blu-Ray titles I own, this one goes straight to the top of the image quality list. Being shot on 70mm didn't hurt (I can't wait until 4k discs start appearing). I would give it a 4.95 rating out of 5. There are a couple of sky scenes where there is very faint pulsing, but I'm just being picky.

This should be an essential purchase.

"faint pulsing." Perhaps it's the desert sun waves? - tinear 08:13:03 10/09/12 (3)
- The correct term is strobing and it's usually but not always associated with motion - Jazz Inmate 07:09:53 10/11/12 (0)
