I saw some HD pics of ANH. It showed all the ugly details in make up and stuff. I don't think I really want to see it all that crisp and sharp. Prolly even the effects will go worse. You'd be able to spot the glue on the models.

I think it would look great with Blu-ray.
With Blue-ray, the image quality sucks.

The amazing placebo effect.
DVD video:
* PAL: 720 × 576 pixels MPEG-2 (Called full D1)
* NTSC: 720 × 480 pixels MPEG-2 (Called full D1)
Stretch this to 32 inches and may the pixel be with you.

It's still not HD since the source material is not HD. So the tv will not play HD. It's just a big screen. It's the LCD that makes it look different, not the TV's resolution.

My question is: Why bother when you can watch it on a plasma..?
Upscaling can make the dvd look of a higher res.

I dont care if you watch the dvd from Yodas ass.
The standard I copypasted above clearly state the amount of pixel information that is stored in a single frame.
You can interpolate more of them of course, but the image is not getting any better.

Nah just a little smoother if you are watching it on large well defined screen.
Better therefore is a matter of taste.
Watching it from Yoda's ass or not. (and I dont wanna know how you'd know the attributes offered by such a viewing).
Anyways: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XD_engine
Stick that into your viewing equation and it definitely looks tastier anyhows. I think that counts for LCD and Plasma.

Shure...
Tastier it might seem, but there it is. Only tastier in your mind.
Native resolution FTW.

I think its the contrast ratios and colour ranges and temperatures on HD level sets that make the biggest physical difference in picture quality.
Thats not subjectivity. Thats performance.

Meh.
It is the amount of little colorful forming columns and the amount of rows that make the picture.
But, it might just be me...
This image really looks great on my HD laptrop screen...
(please log in to view the image)
Dookus rugged features are really enhanced.
Poor resolution, but damn... The contrast just makes it all worth it.

It does.
But I'm sure the PT will look great om HD... Since it IS HD. THe OT on the other will reveal may little ugly details we'd be wishing we had never seen.
