Wondering this.  Many of you purchased the BCI sets long time ago (how time flies, Go-ers). Since we'll never get 'Ghostbusters' on HD resolution (no 35mm source existing), now I'm wondering how the DVDs look on our commonplace plasma/LED high definition TV monitors. How many inches, besides? Let me know....  |

Just watched a Bravestarr Italian DVD (licensed by Classic Media) on my LED TV, and it looked beautifully. Hallmark digitally transferred the series in an excellent way, it almost seemed HD. Bravestarr looked like it was shot yesterday.
On BD format there would be no faulty DVD compression, however.
Any more feedback?

They look crisper than I remember them being on my old analog TV when the show was actually on the air. But then I still only have my Entertainment Rights release, nothing more recent like those 8-ep compilations from a couple years ago.

The BCI releases to me, seem a bit crisper and better sound than what I remember from the past. But, that could be tv differences. I can't remember the VHS tape version quality. I remember them being in the video rental store I used to work at and I know I rented them back in the day.
The most recent, Universal/Dreamworks release (Prime Evil, 2018) is as good or maybe slightly better than the BCI release. I think the sound was better based on my HD tv/HD dvd setup anyway.

On a side note, I'm pretty sure now that "Ghostbusters" was shot on 16mm, not 35mm. So not much quality has been lost in translation, thank God.
