I never seen Jaws either....*hides*
but will need to pre order it.

It's nowhere near that bad! It's not a massive leap but there's plenty more fine detail in it.

As it's been a while since I last watched The Terminator BD, I suppose I'd better give the disc another spin and see if I was being overcritical of the picture quality.

Maybe im fussy then.

I watch a BD now, and if it looks better than the Predator Ultimate Hunter Edition, I'm happy.

You definitely need to see Bird With the Crystal Plumage, it's not only one of his best but also a top tier giallo too.

All three movies are masterfull (It would seem Cat and Flies divides people here though) but Bird with the Crystal Plumage is certainly one of the best Giallo ever made and amongst Argento's best.

It has been confirmed on Hi Def Ninja that this is, indeed, a new transfer for The Terminator. I guess this must be the restoration carried out a while back by Lowry...

If true, that's great news and I'm glad I have preordered a copy.

It's a bloody awful cover. The original artwork would look so good on a steelbook; to me it's such an iconic image. This cover is hideous to be honest.
