So the lady of the house wanted me to get her a movie and chose Dirty Dancing. I remember seeing the movie when I was younger but honestly had not seen it in maybe 15 years or so.

Wow, is all I can say. So far that is the worst film - Video transfer I have seen so far on either HDDVD or Blu Ray. I own about 50 movies between the two formats and I was really disappointed with the quality.

Yep, there are interlacing problems.

You might want to check out the tier thread, at least the bottom, so you can see what might need to be avoided.

There is an existing thread on this very subject. :)

Thanks Donnie. I will close this thread and ask the OP to follow up in the thread linked.

That thread wasn't one of the 5 previewed when I started this thread....
