Say a movie was filmed 20 or so years ago, ie exorcist, beat street,,,etc etc
Will it be allot clearer say than a standard dvd version?
Or is it only at high quality with the camera's being used these days to make films?

They will look decent, but nowhere near as good or clear as movies made these days. It probably wouldnt be worth forking out the big dollars for blu-ray versions of these older movies, the DVD's would suffice.

Any films filmed uses tape, so the resolution doesn't matter. That is, when the film is transferred onto a disc, its resolution would be 1080p, however back in those days due to technology people can't directly transfer 100% of the PQ and sound of the film onto portable mediums. Now they can put EVERYTHING they filmed (pure sound and PQ) onto discs.

The only downside is that the PQ of movies 20 years ago on BR won't look as good as the PQ of movies today, this is due to the advancement of lenses and colour reproduction technology.

NoRc phuck off with the advertising! any old movie "remastered" is just upscaled for blu-ray. Most modern dvd players when connected to your tv via hdmi do this automatically when you play standard dvd's. If you want value for money when buying blu-ray movies make sure the movie was shot in 1080p. Currently there are very few movies shot in 1080p.

YourMum: Phuck off with your deragotive comments towards other users... This is your first warning! The comments made in this thread are correct. Movies filmed, even on old cameras, are much better quality than DVD EVER allowed and therefore would be better quality on BR. Please check your facts before posting here! Another direct attack on a user of this forum owns you a 1 week ban!
