Movie Reviews of Los Angeles Lakers 1985 NBA Champions - Return to Glory
Movie Review: Better quality than my old tapes
Summary: 5 Stars
I recorded this series on video from TV back in the day and kept them around all these years. I just bought this dvd box set and the quality is excellent. So far I only watched games 2 & 3 from this new dvd set. It's cool that they kept the old CBS introduction and music with the digital basketball bouncing into the net. My only complaint on game 2 is that the picture flips at different times throughout the first half - enough to be annoying. Game 3 cuts over to the Chick Hearn broadcast in the 4th quarter and the video quality looks even better than the 1st 3 quarters on CBS.
It's refreshing to see a clean picture while watching these games, and by clean I mean no stupid digital crap jumping in your face and clogging the TV screen as today's media crew loves to overdo the tricks while blocking the action.
And for those who complain that the entire game 1 isn't shown - you must be Celtic fans. I saw that game once and I don't care to view it again. Those were imposters in the purple jerseys that day - not the Lakers I knew. I pretty much recorded over that one too! (kept the 1st quarter I think)
I give this 5 stars so far. I want to see the 1984 NBA series come out on dvd too so I can get a sharp copy of the Lakers blowing out the Celtics (with a record 47 pts in one quarter!) in game 3 that year.
If you can't handle the short shorts from this era, don't get the dvd. If like me you hate the skirts that players (and all guys) wear these days then this is the dvd for you.
