Would you prefer 300 with or without grain?

[BadAss]

Lets face it, if HD-DVD was released with lots of film grain as is, and Blu-ray was released with an absolute pure pixel for pixel transfer like Sin City which one would we all be singing praises for?

What if Peter Jackson went back to revisit LOTR trilogy and said 'actualy this film looks too darn clear. What I should have done was add lots of grain like 300' How many of us would think yeah great idea Pete?

Film grain is a by product of bad film stock, badly lit, or under exposed lighting, IMO. Look at Saving private Ryan v A Thin Red Line, I know which one I prefer the look of.

Lol, don't you think if digital cameras were available in the 60's all those dusty westerns would now look like crank.
