Current Talk '24 I / Re: hoDS/NoDS DVD Release?

Something that was different from my recent orders was that the Blu-rays of the original films came in a padded bag rather than in an Amazon box. Not that that should make a difference because both the boxes and the bags have the same type of mailing labels - but perhaps it does. I'm going to have to pay attention from now on.
One thing I forgot to comment on yesterday is the quality of the picture with the NoDS Blu-ray. Just viewing the few bits that I checked yesterday was practically like really seeing those bits for the first time because the clarity of the picture and the vibrance of the color is just spectacular - especially compared to the VHS, which was originally amazing to me compared to the TV versions of NoDS that circulated back in the '80s and '90s. The clarity of the picture is even better than the Amazon Instant Video version, which I thought was an improvement over the VHS, though the color is about the same as the VHS. (But the AIV version still holds a place in my heart because of all the "extra" bits of dialogue and music cues that don't seem to appear on any other version of NoDS.) I actually wonder if NoDS even looked as good when it was originally shown in theaters because a lot of the projection equipment used back in the day left a lot to be desired.
