They put so much DNR on the remaster that everybody looks like they are made of plastic. All the detail is gone... how did this get approved?

You cooked up a phony story -- and dropped us into a plastic grinder!

What's DNR again, other than Do Not Resuscitate?

Digital Noise Reduction. It's used to remove grain during the remastering process, but if you use too much...

I'd like to see it "in-motion" before making up my mind.

You're assuming everyone who was in the movie WASN'T made out of plastic.

Does look pretty plasticine in those pics. I like a little grain - I mean, it's not like Predator was filmed digitally.
