Of what I've seen so far Pirates of the Carribean and Ratatoullie are really poor quality. Even worse are the 2 Pixar Story ones. I won't bother listing the good one here but there are some. :-)

i'm watching duck, you sucker(1971) on iw and it is pretty fuzzy in full screen mode.

Oh man, that is a bummer. Leone movies should not even have a full screen option (in a sane world)

lol, sorry i must've worded that wrong. the movie is letterboxed. i just meant when you maximize the screen the picture is pretty fuzzy. when rod steiger first gets a good look at james coburn i couldn't even make out what the banner that appears over his head said.

It appears that a lot of the Starz content is fuzzy. Bob, any suggestions for how to do the list? Or anything else?

Dizzy Gillespie: Live at the Royal Festival (2001) is fuzzy. It's still worth watching, but worth more if it didn't look like a 9th gen VHS tape. ;)
