Great vid...What kind of quality are the laser discs? Are they pretty good or no?

[LeeDarkParadox]

@gabbogabbo picture quality about equal to dvd, sound is the best thing about laserdisc, i have 'twister' THX NTSC laserdisc and the sound on this disc has to be heard to be believed, it is one of the best discs I have ever heard, sounds amazing when played through a surround sound system :-)

What is that "vault" thing you showed before you showed the laserdiscs?

[LeeDarkParadox]

@zachzilla26 goot question, I have had it 2 years and haven't actually opened it yet! I will do a video for it soon, do a google search for it in the meantime :-)

May I suggest you use the manual focus on your camera if it has one. All those close ups of the disc writing won't show up so blurry.

[LeeDarkParadox]

Thanks for the feedback. It was filmed with a sony cybershot digital camera, no focus in video mode -- but I have a new panasonic digital video camera so I will be doing another box set video which should be a lot better quality & in 16:9 :-)

Did laserdisc came before DVDs?

[themachman19691]

@ElectricMuffinDude yes and dts on some.musch better sound quality on some laserdiscs than dvd

[henkman00]

will any laserdisc play in any laserdisc player?

[ElectricMuffinDude]

This might be a silly question but does LD's hold multi channel surround such as AC3?

when my scholarship comes in, i'm buying the original trilogy again. i miss it so

Where are the 95 editions? That version of the movies is shit. They're all chocked full of craptacular 1997 CGI.

Even from here, the image quality looks GREAT.

Star Wars and ROTJ have two discs, and ESB has only one?
