Picked up Dune today on BR. Haven't seen it yet, BUT if my friends review is anything to go by it is REALLY special!!
Is this the one that starred Kyle McLaughlin and Sting? I remember seeing it, but that it wasn't entirely memorable. It was pretty much universally panned by the critic's I believe (not that it matters that much).
Watched the BD last night.. NOT as impressive as I was hoping for. It really seems that it is not perhaps the greatest idea to re-fresh non-Hi-Def movies onto BD. IMHO, every BD I have viewed that was filmed prior to Hi-Def has not been worth the effort/price once transferred to BD. Like audio, if the information wasn't there in the first place, you cannot get it later. 'Dune' with Kyle McLaughlin and Sting isn't entirely memorable, BUT it is the only version I am aware of that is on BD. Pity that the movie wasn't filmed in Hi-Def to begin with and now seems a little dated.
35mm film has better resolution than 1080p (Blu-ray) video (2 megapixels).Film is higher resolution than digital? Here we go again....

If I added noise to audio, you wouldn't say its frequency response is reduced. Would you? Same is here. Up to certain point, resolution is resolution. The argument for noise kicks in around 6 megapixels where subjectively, a digital image will match 35 mm in fidelity but we are way below that with 1080p video.Perhaps. But 35mm film has grain. Compared to digital video, it's apparent resolution is much lower than digital video.
