I sampled about 40 minutes of Warner's Forbidden Planet this evening in HD, and like most current releases, quality is extremely good.
That isn't to say that the production itself wasn't without optical flaws, but this wonderful piece of cinema sci-fi history has translated beautifully to HD.
Color is reasonably stable for a production of the era, grain structure actually looks finer than I would have expected, and most dirt and detritus has been eliminated.
For fans of the film, and there are many, this HD release should be nirvana.
