It was a corny line but it was still well delivered wasn't it?
I completely respect your opinion, and I respect you. I enjoyed discussing this with you, even if I don't completely agree.

If we're all here for a reason then I'm just visiting.

If it's held in your heart then you can't let go.

Always got a kick out of Movie 7's semi-inaccurate portrait of malls. :lol:

Chi-Chi must be an incredibly picky shopper to have all that stuff put in gift boxes.

Thank you very much for the screenshots, this definetely is the best looking set so far.

So... I tried to make a nice 3-way comparison using Mike's old Dragon Box/FUNimation comparison, and it ended up being harder than my delusional mind was thinking it would be, so I give up. Here's as far as I got:

The two rectangles are what I added from the double feature screenshot.

Cool. I wouldn't have even taken that screencap if it weren't for that comparison.

Can we get some Dragon Box screencaps to compare? The MFG screencaps are downscaled and some of the footage is chopped out, so it's not the best to used.

Also, there's an interesting thing I noticed on these. It seems like Funi's no longer working with Video Post & Transfer for the Double Features, because in all of the previous ones, Steve Franko was mentioned in the credits, whereas he isn't mentioned in either of the credits for Movie 7 & 9. It can't be because of Funi being lazy and not changing the credits, because they've added Rotoscroping credits, as well as adding an additional cast section to Movie 9 where all of the minor characters were mentioned, whereas in the Singles, there was just one big Cast section that included both major and minor characters.

So that basically explains why these Double Features aren't as blurry as the last ones and actually have grain.
