I definitely agree on this. But Ratatouille doesn't only has the best PQ. But for me, it has the best SQ in all of them.

I own all Pixar Movies. But I want to add Pixar Short Films collection to my collection

Are you referring to Queen Rock Montreal?




It has the best PQ of any Queen concert since it's the only Queen video shot on 35mm film (rather than magnetic videotape), now remastered frame by frame.  

The bad part about Queen Rock Montreal is the lousy camerawork.  For example, Brian May delivers a guitar riff, but the camera is on the drummer.  Freddie Mercury pounds the keyboards, but the camera, instead of framing both Freddie and the keyboard, only frames a tight close-up of Freddie's face.  :P

The director of photography does not know what he's doing.  I'm almost certain that he can't play any musical instrument  >:(.  


Compare:

Queen Rock Montreal 1981: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjNEJsdP3rk
Live at Wembley 1986: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T36Ez1pq3E8

Bad PQ talaga ang Superman Returns. 

It's got bad film grain.  Posterization on underwater scenes is even worse.   

By the way, Superman Returns was shot with a digital camera.  The film grain is fake.

Talaga?  Masilip nga yung high def version tonight.   :)

Havent watched too much upscaled DVD but I found I Robot and Star Wars upscaled to be nearly high def in quality.  They were showing it on a Pioneer Kuro.

Nice when you can see how background effects were worked into the picture of Hitman, on bonus material. OT, also love hearing Ave MAria here ;D

Before seeing Toy Story 10th anniv.

I've read that it's one of the best DVD transfers ever.

After seeing it, I must have to agree.

Into TV series boxsets lately.

One of the more impressive PQ i've seen is CARNIVALE Seasons 1 & 2.  Truly leaps out of my screen despite many dark scenes.

For Sound Quality, I would have to say (with my recent viewings) SMOKIN ACES.  Check out the scene when the lady sniper took out FBI agents using a high powered gun.  Awesome!!

Yes, I will agree with Titanic. Close to HD quality siya.
I have the R3 version, I'm sure it has the same master as your R1 copy.  ;)

Agree with the Underworld movies... sama mo na din yung prequel...

Alien vs Predator has awesome PQ... ang galing ng black levels nung dark scenes. Same goes with the Alien disc on the Alien Quadrilogy set... parang hindi luma yung movie.

I just watched the remastered Casino (Anniversary Edition, R1).  

Great picture!  Nice color saturation, natural sharpness and grain, no posterization.
