Battle of the Bulge - Very Impressed

the great escape always looked crappy on blu ... there was a flame war over it being the original optical elements that caused the crappiness when it was released.

it's still an entertaining film.

Oh I definitely on video quality; it's very disappointing. No doubt a remaster is coming. I look forward to it. I don't think it had anything to do with the lenses used during filming. That's just silly. Even the central parts of the image look poor.

Agree that it's a fun film. One of my favorites as a child. I also liked the way the functional parts of it were done. It's what helped most to make it fun.
