Hoosiers may be one of the most loved sports films, but it has not received the attention it deserves on DVD. Originally released on DVD by Live Entertainment (now Artisan), then acquired by MGM, this disc is lacking in many ways. The image, framed at the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1, is an anamorphic transfer and shows a fair amount of grain. Still, even with the grain, the image holds up quite well, especially in the use of color. Reds, prominent throughout the film, are solid and really stand out. The sound, a Dolby Digital Surround mix, is centered up front, but is recorded far too low. It's necessary to turn up the volume in order to hear dialogue, but needs to be lowered when the rousing music begins. The only soundtrack is in English. Closed captions are available in only English. As for extras, there aren't very many. There is only a trailer, which is a real shame, as a commentary or a documentary on actual Indiana high school basketball would be a real treat. It is hard not to love this film, but one is saddened that more could not be done for the disc.

Although this is not in blue ray, I purchased it for the well made movie production. BB had this at the checkout line and a super price. One of the better sports movies.

DURABrite Ultra ink offers superior image quality with smudge, water and fade resistance for durable prints. Ideal for double-sided printing, DURABrite Ultra ink does not bleed through and is quick-drying for worry-free handling of photos. Plus, get about 50% more prints than a standard-capacity ink cartridge when you use 126 high-capacity cartridge.

Quality ink, great price for the black ink.

This Epson cartridge is consistent with the quality of ink. Replacing the cartridge is easy with no mess at all. It is very thin and manageable to use. The price is great for the black ink, less than $20.00. I would like it to last longer, but for home use its okay.

What's great about it: Easy to insert cartridge - no mess.
What's not so great: Does not last all that long for the work I do.
