What I'm talking about is that when a reaction takes, let's say, 2 seconds. That reaction now comes sooner.Come off it Patrick! No way is 4% of 2 seconds noticeable.

A difference of that little time can make a gag funny or flat.One wonders how millions of Europeans could have laughed at L&H whenever they were/are shown on PAL TV.
To quote Laurel: "Don't you think the professor is a trifle cuckoo?"

If not, then I think you should watch them before you make a comment like that. No matter how hard I look, I don't notice any speed-up when watching them. This isn't silent films sped up to 32 frames a second.

Check out the PAL-to-NTSC version of The Great Dictator that was on TCM for the "Tramp and the Dictator" premire. Compare that to the 2000 DVD which used a straight NTSC master. The conversion made it REALLY hard to watch.
On the other hand, PAL-originated video looks great when converted to NTSC properly.
Apparently this set is OOP.No it isn't. In fact you can order it again at Amazon.de for 99 Euro (they simply ran out of stock).
