Personally I'd prefer a slightly grainier/dustier image over one that looks like this:
I mean, c'mon, that's atrocious! I'm seriously surprised the matter of what appears to be 'half the picture missing in removed lines' subject hasn't been brought up before about the definitive collection, nobody has answered wether the 95 Faces set suffer the same picture detail loss and if the Japanese discs do too.
Besides, a grainy image is what was originally experienced in the cinemas all those years ago
