I don't really buy the "Super HD Blu Ray on a nice HD super TV is a new kind of image" argument. Bluray, at its best, on a large, properly-calibrated LCD TV at 60 Hz (or better yet, a high quality HD projector), looks like watching a pristine 35mm print. Maybe if you're incredibly used to VHS and DVD, it might seem strange in a home environment, but - the plethora of bad transfers aside - high definition discs and files are only bringing the clarity of film to the home theater. Not a new image, just a new location.
