Black and white movies should stay black and white. George Lucas shouldn’t have messed with Star Wars. Film movies should have film grain. You shouldn’t use a computer to remove grain and make Arnold look like a Madame Tussaud’s sculpture. You shouldn’t crop 4:3 sources to 16:9 because you think people prefer losing some image to black bars. Stop tinkering with shit to “improve” it.
I wouldn’t care, but I do care because it means I have to spend my time taking hours on the internet to find an obscure VHS rip of a version that has not been debauched by digital Dicks.
- bscphil 8y agoI mean, I agree with you, but I don't think GP overstated at all just how much the average consumer doesn't care about this stuff. Most of us know people who prefer to have their TV stretch (not just crop) the image from its original aspect ratio to 16:9. I know people who refuse to watch black and white films because they're "boring". Not because of the subject matter, but because they're black and white.
