Updated HD DVD image quality rankings
Lyris’ recent purchase of a 40” 1080p-capable display has caused me to re-evaluate a few titles. By and large, not much has changed, although Corpse Bride has emerged as the closest to being technically “perfect” (personally, I prefer the grainy aesthetic of Serenity, though).
10/10
- Corpse Bride (Warner, USA)
- Serenity (Universal, UK)
- Serenity (Universal, USA)
- Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Warner, UK)
9/10
- The Bourne Supremacy (Universal, USA)
- The Adventures of Robin Hood (Warner, USA)
- Miami Vice (Universal, USA)
- Unleashed (Universal, USA)
- Casablanca (Warner, USA)
- Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (Warner, UK)
8/10
- Red Dragon (Universal, USA)
- Constantine (Warner, USA)
- Land of the Dead (Universal, USA)
- V for Vendetta (Warner, USA)
- The Machinist (Toshiba, Japan)
- Sleepy Hollow (Paramount, USA)
- Million Dollar Baby (Warner, USA)
7/10
- Wolf Creek (The Weinstein Company, USA)
- Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (Universal, USA)
- The Mummy Returns (Universal, USA)
- Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Warner, USA)
6/10
- Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (Paramount, USA)
- An American Werewolf in London (Universal, USA)
- Brokeback Mountain (Universal, USA)
- Basic Instinct (Studio Canal, France)
I’ll continue to post this list, with updates, at regular intervals (probably around once a month). Also, expect Blu-ray titles to begin to be added starting with the next major update.
