I bought the 1951 WWII navy movie Caine Mutiny on DVD yesterday which have issue date of 2010. While watching it last night, I noticed alot of inconsistency regarding picture quality.
In general the picture quality is good, but in some spots the picture turns brownish, and other spots the colors seem faded and skin tone turns yellowish. And sometimes the sea is purple instead of blue.
I have watched this movie over years on cable and never seen such an inconsistency in picture quality. The picture qulity have always looked kind of decent and remember never seeing purple sea when it was on cable.
I am guessing on cable, there is alot of edge and noise enhancements where alot of picture flaws are kind of hidden and smoothed over. Or just may be the the studio just did lousy job of DVD remastering. I vote for the latter.
