Then you need to delete EFNY

Been working on this all day off and on and I finally think I am getting close.

Check various review sites such as here and dvdbeaver to find an answer since I don't own the Australia release.

Optimums UK release of Army of Darkness got a better score for the transfer then Universals U.S. release but can't confirm if its a better transfer or not. It's region B locked. Universals has slight EE and DNR. Pro-B doesn't mention any in the U.K. release.

Zulu looks decent, but the DNR is not mild by any stretch. It is caked in DNR, one of the worst examples on the Blu-ray format.

aiman04 · 08-15-2011, 02:40 AM

Good effort! Thanks!

PS: Didn't know The Devil Wears Prada and Black Hawk Down has better transfer elsewhere. I thought Black Hawk Down looks excellent already, interesting.

No, I have seen the worst example of DNR on BD and that is definitely the re-release of Predator. Zulu is certainly mild in comparison since there are a few waxy faces, but the background grain is still intact. Besides every DVD release of the film looks absolutely dreadful.

Anyway you can list the regions for each BR release?
