I guess if you want to nick pick you can see some differences but not enough to shell out the extra money for. I'm running a 57" and a 92" and when it comes down to it by the time the Superbits come out the original movie is like 9 bux for a disc.

For me I just can't justify the extra money on something that is only slightly better at best. It's not like the superbits are leaps and bounds over the other discs. However the Lawrence of Arabia and Fifth Element discs were considerable improvement over the older discs.

For me I have to ask is it really important to spend 22+ bux on and better looking version of "Cliffhanger" or "Starship Troopers" when there are VERY good looking version already available for under 10 bux?

Now if the Superbits were a bit cheaper......

Then I would have to buy all of them for the better sound and picture. I could justify the marginal upgrades in picture for a lower price. But for now I’m sticking with the lower priced discs so I can spend my money on stuff I really need super editions of.

Like SHOWGIRLS

Just kidding you need two super editions of SHOWGIRLS.
