Default Stand alone BD Player VS. PS3 - movie grain.

Would movie grain be any less on a standalone BD player than it is on a PS3? I would think they are the same, but after reading alot on movie grain, some ppl have said better players can help. Is this true?

no.
Grain is in the film.

Now if you have a 120' screen and watch at 10' away then you might detect a grainier pic on the PS3.
But I highly doubt that is your situation.

On a side note, TV's that have not been properly calibrated can cause grain to become even more apparent through processes like high sharpness and "noise reduction."

A properly calibrated tv will more accurately represent the quality of the image being sent to it. A tv that is not properly calibrated can make even a good image look bad.
