When I saw the title, my first reaction was positive, but then I started to wonder - could this ruin some of the movies' magic? |

Cool, one less movie Criterion has to worry about.  Movie "magic": unless the director wanted the image to be crappy I dislike shitty a/v in either bad and good films. Manos in HD will be the apex of the blu-ray format, it's all downhill after that. |

I don't doubt the guys' skills, I've read your links and the guy seems legit. What I meant to say it that the crappy and grainy picture gave Manos some extra quality, IMHO. Maybe it's the nostalgic moment, as I remember watching those kinds of movies on crappy pirate VHS from a local video rental Or something else, dunno.Generally speaking, I enjoy better quality movies like the next guy, but there are some exceptions that prove the rule. Like, color movies are - generally speaking again - more enjoyable than B&W movies, but that doesn't mean that someone should add color to Psycho, does it? My 2 cents... |
