Just as many on here, I am in the SLOW! process of replacing my VHS tapes with BR copies and here are two I have recently picked up:

My Favorite of the 3, I always felt it relied more on the plot and storying telling than the action. The BR had more of a throwback look to it than the razor sharp look of BR. It reminded me of a 70mm film, warm tones of skin colors (you notice it mostly during the planning part while they all sit around the table). The sound was only DD 5.1, but it must have been at a higher bitrate, for it jumped out and fill the room with even the lightest sounds. If you are a fan and do not have it on DVD, pick it up, you can get it new on Amazon for $10.00 or less.

I great part of American space race history, more of a docudrama than movie. The BR was very sharp for the most part, scenes in the home always look a little soft, scenes inside the capsule were very vivid. Sound was very good clear dialog and the right amount of LEF when needed.
