Both Simon Pegg-Edgar Wright collaborations have made stacked appearances on all digital formats now, and while nothing new is added, some of the blocky contrast issues in the murky Shaun transfer have been addressed, if not removed (it may well be the actual footage, rather than the transfer itself); Hot Fuzz feels, well, zingier somehow,
with HD tech a few steps further along since HD DVD’s demise.
