OK, I know what anamorphic is. I have a CRT projector with variable line
scaler. But I have seen some anamorphic transfers that are worse than
some letterbox transfers. All transfers are not the same in quality. And
if all you do is blow up a letterboxed transfer, without any new picture
information, just so you can shrink it down again, it does not
necessarily result in a more detailed picture.
Maybe someone who has seen this DVD can just answer my basic question...
Is this a good transfer... better than the previous release?
More likely I will just fork over the 16.99 at Costco and hope for the
best.
