I agree that no one should pass up the $10 Blu-ray of IAMMMMW, It will more than likely be the only one for a few years if not forever.
What makes you think the THE HALLELUJAH TRAIL is in poor condition just because the DVD is not up to par. The Blu-ray versions of THE BIG COUNTRY and HAIR, just to name a couple of titles were a lot better than the DVD versions. Has this film had a run on MGMHD? I had heard that MGM had worked on their titles by producing HD transfers for MGMHD and I suppose that the Blu-rays we are seeing now are a product of those transfers made a few years ago. I do not think that the $10.00 exclusives are any more than that for MGM does not have the funds to do a lot of work to the numerous titles that are being released.
