I thought the contrast on the movie was good, a lot better than the laserdiscs which were always washed out. And the black bars are black. There is FAR less compression and I can see a lot more detail. The only thing I didn't like was how series of horizontal lines in the film showed up. The vent on the side of Lukes landspeeder when they caught up with R2D2 for example. I didn't understand why the menus were anamorphic.
