Yeah, but that was only because the whole time I was watching it, I thought it was a Freddy Krueger movie.

Xylon on the AVSForum has posted a thread of screen comparison shots of Enchanted - standard (upconverted) DVD then Blu-ray grab for each shot:

Sky,

For the past couple of years, I've been lucky enough to have had a regular DVD player and an HD DVD player hooked up in the same system (now an HD DVD player and a BD player), and to have had access to both SD and HD discs of the same movie. So it's been pretty easy for me to make direct, instant comparisons of the same screens one after the other. Anybody who can't see the differences between even upscaled SD discs and HD discs has to be sitting pretty far away from their screen.

I found the comparison interesting, since this is one of those new direct-to-digital transfers. I was pretty surprised at the difference in even the opening cartoon part. I didn't really expect much of an improvement over the standard def in the 2-D animation, but those HD shots look pixel perfect.
