Question How bad can Blu-ray PQ can get before it starts looking like a DVD?

Regarding the picture quality rating the reviews on this web site: What rating might represent the equivalent PQ of a DVD? I.e. given a "good" dvd player (with "good" upscaling), what would be the PQ rating for that DVD disc?

For example, Casey Broadwater, recently gave The Host a Video rating of 4.5. Now, if that PQ rating was 3, would that be roughly the same as the DVD version of the same film? 2.5? 2?

I know DVD PQ quality differs just as much as blu-ray PQ quality - I'm just curious about how bad blu-ray PQ can get before it starts looking like a DVD.
