    If you've never watched all of it many years ago then the cgi will bother you. Classic stuff though, the cgi was pretty brilliant for tv at the time.

    Old effects don't bother me that much.

    And yet you mock me for pirating Universe. Even the first movie is terrible.

    It's decent I tell you!

    And screw you I liked that movie. Objectively it's not great though.

    My standards are very low. Which should really say something about Universe and anything on CBS.

    Alien sfx was the only good thing about it. Everything else is meh...acting, story.
    So now the sfx don't look so good it's just a pile of shit

    No Babylon 5 BDs either
    I have a decent setup, Oppo DV970HD->VP30, the only thing lacking is my janky TV that needs replacing with a good monitor. I find a well handled upscale is a bit better because of the increased bitrate.

    I just have a cheap 43" 1080p tv atm, but the built-in media player it has is pretty decent (good menu, files listing and x264/mp4 support but no x265). It's only a cheap 50/60Hz model but it does have 24p film mode which actually works really well (sometimes it won't on cheap units). Current BD player is a cheapie too but it's all DVD region + all BD region (selectable), can recode audio output. I haven't tested the DVD upscaling on it extensively yet but it seems ok.

    Not that the DVD release of SG-1 is poor, the mastering is quite good.

    My old BD player only gets used as a CD player now It's cheap too but has some Sony internals iirc.

    I think most players are passable at this point. I feel that a good dedicated scaler still has the edge on anything cheap though.

    I'd be interested in seeing how the VP30 compares directly to the VP50 Pro/Edge/Duo but, I'm way too cheap to buy all those .
