Not so fast. This title and a few others from Warner has a known issue. The master was done at 1080i and improperly converted to 1080p. Look at the shots closely and you can see an artifact known as stairstepping. It's especially noticeable in the first shot. Look at the guy on the left. His gun and strap have jagged edges. If you look closely enough, you can see it in all of the shots from FMJ, but certain shots bring out the stairstepping more. (Make sure you are looking at the picture in its full resolution, not resized to fit your screen; if your monitor is less than 1920x1080 you'll need to pan across the image. Don't use Windows Image Viewer as it will resize the image to fit your screen so you may not see it properly.) This problem is also evident in the shots from The Perfect Storm and Enter the Dragon, but not in the shots from the other discs.

Anyway, I want to thank whoever captured and provided these images. Aside from allowing us to see real screenshots, it is the first opportunity I've had to see what this stairstepping issue looks like firsthand (since I've avoided buying the discs with the 1080i issue so far).
