To go back to RAH's original post, lemme just say that as soon as I hear about grain being "immobile" I think of one establishment: Lowry a.k.a. Reliance. It's no surprise, then, to learn that they worked on GPB.
It's not like they can't get it right: Aliens looks absolutely stunning on Blu, as does Dr. No. But given the 7 year difference between those remastering projects and the slew of affected titles inbetween, it really does seem to be a crapshoot as to whether the grain looks natural or not. I'm actually dreading the release of the remaining Bond films, 'cause I'm afraid that they'll be slathered in frozen grain like Moonraker, as opposed to the deliciousness of Dr. No.
