Hey Dusty!
Thanks so much for reading it and responding!

I recently checked this out on BD. I own the sequel on BD and was overall pleased with the video, though I did feel it was rather grainy. This one did look a lot better than the sequel!

Yes -- definitely agree there and so did Home Theater's in depth analysis of the video; weird, huh, that the original would look BETTER than a sequel that came out after it?

However, I do have to agree with you on the inconsisent video. It would go from really good to average, and the dark scenes in this one were some of the poorest I've seen. I haven't really seen ANY BDs with dark scenes that look GOOD, but I have seen darker scenes better than this.

Absolutely agreed; I was beginning to think that there was something wrong -- seriously wrong with my Panasonic player (that's already outdated by what...three models?) but it makes me feel better to know that others saw the same thing, such as yourself...the video was VERY inconsistent and it was dissapointing from a studio like Disney...

Def. better than the sequel, but not one I'd show off my system with!

Yes -- agreed as well, and a BIG head scratcher in that it was such a blockbuster from the Bruckheimer camp who KNOW how to make these loud, visceral over-the-top hits...very surprising this wasn't given better audio and video treatment.
Thanks again for replying!
