As opposed to vehimently opposing and derisively scoffing at anything and everything for no reason while blindly ignoring massive evidence and proven conclusions to avoid actual productive discourse and discussion like you do? Funny how I have posted massive evidence and proven conclusions that have been ignored over and over.

Where is your evidence of DVD being higher quality than Blu-ray?

Even though YOU think it's " massive evidence and proven conclusions" doesn't mean it is and you're simultaneously ignoring others evidence that proves you wrong. You're either a massive hippocrite, fundamentally socially retarded or deliberately trolling. Either way, if you continue to cause issues, deliberately or not, you will be moderated. You're already in the hole, digging more won't get you out.

Yes, that is factual evidence of DVD's superiority. It was Ivan Reitman's original vision to have the thrower streams magically change from orange to green when they touched Slimer.
Why don't you argue more generally about DVDs vs. BD beyond a single frame comparison from one movie?

You're basing your argument on one screenshot comparison. Do you see where the holes in your argument are appearing? You don't want to link to any articles or other evidence? None of the other movies that have been released on Blu-ray? Just a comparison shot from the DVD version with over saturated color and a Blu-Ray? Only one frame? Just because the special effects in the higher definition shot is less colorful and less blurry doesn't make it lower quality than the DVD.

Just using the "evidence" that was posted to me trying to say BR is better then DVD.

If you can't see that the bluray shot you posted is better than the DVD one there's no helping you and this argument is over. Not my post, just quoted. and it is obvious the BR is not as goo a quality in that shot. But you will choose to ignore that and hail to the BR gods.

Mr. D. wrote: Now you are comparing wide screen to full screen. or a zoomed image to a non zoomed image. No I'm not. I'm comparing DVD to Blu-ray. Perhaps you should do a year of research on it. The smaller top image is the size that DVD is. The large bottom image is the size that Blu-ray is. I figure you can't understand that since both images would take up the whole TV screen when playing. But the DVD would have to blow the image up to take up the same space as the Blu-ray.. and what happens when you resize an image? Its lower quality. Now we insert that whole.. blah blah not choosing to look at the arguements! I'm always right blah blah comment here.

So you SERIOUSLY HONESTLY TRULY believe that the thrower streams were meant to turn green? And that it looks better that way? And that they didn't totally screw up in the 2005 transfer with that green overlay effect? That looks better to you?

Now a full screen movie will look EXACTLY like the top image you posted on a wide screen TV. Your not proving anything.

This got way off topic. I do personally like blueray better, but that is all opinion. (and some facts) I also think the ray posessed scene would be awesome to see! (back on topic) I think GB2 blueray will include it.

Both images are widescreen. No resizing was involved. If you don't understand that DVD is 720 x 480 and Blu-ray is 1920 x 1080... then you have no place in any argument where Blu-ray vs DVD is being discussed.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Ghostbusters Fans on Android  I have never got to use that image on any other site as much as I have here. You people think just because Wikipedia says something, it must be true. No I have done REAL research on home theater systems. Not just done a Google search, clicked Wikipedia and read an article and now think I am an expert.
