The (Real) Ten Commandments - Blu-ray Forum

It is playing in HD on ABC right now. It looks pretty good for its age, colors are bright, no obvious scratches or artifacts. Does this mean we can look forward to a release soon?

Correct me if I am wrong here, but just because a movie is being shown on an HD channel, that doesn't necessarily mean that the movie itself is HD.

I am all in favor of a good Blu-ray release of the movie.

You are correct but this looks too good to be upconversion.

I turned to the movie. The picture is very good indeed. I don't remember seeing the movie with this good a picture before.

Wow! That blue cape of Rameses (Yul Brynner) looks like you can reach out and touch it!!!

What is the actual aspect ratio for the film (the 1956 one), on DVD it's 1.85 but in 1989 it was shown at 2.20 in theaters. Which one is the corect ratio?

I have the remastered DVD version and it is this transfer your were watching. Upconverted it looks fantastic. I don't know what it would look like in BD if released in hidef. If it comes out in blu ray I will buy it.

The 50th Anniversary Edition DVD is 1.78:1. How many aspect ratios does this movie have?
