I actually think the old Criterion DVD looked better than the Universal Spartacus bluray. I am hoping this time this gem gets the transfer it deserves. I believe it was mastered at a time when Universal was stepping into the bluray field and was terrified of the grain it saw in HD and preferred to smear it. They have finally moved away from this practice and have embraced a modicum of grain.trajan said:I get your point that you really don't like this transfer. Personally. I think it looks pretty damn good on a 46".
