Tooze did have a habit of mistakening macroblocking and other digitial artifacts for film grain back in the day. It was annoying then and makes a lot of his early reviews comically inaccurate.Originally Posted by haineshisway /t/319941/ushe-press-release-jaws-blu-ray-plus-restoration-details/90#post_3916172
I agree with all of it. My point was that the film grain on a camera negative is not "thick" as the Beaver describes it. It would be fine grain, not popcorn-sized balls of grain, which is what the Beaver seems to enjoy.
Actually somebody should make a list of "Tooze-isms" (IE. Thick, HD Sourced, Tightness, etc.) that's he's casually dumped over the years. It may fill a rather large book.
