My biggest complaint: The picture quality

Why is the picture quality so poor with this "made-for-tv" movie that came out in 1992. I would continuously watch the movie, except the picture quality sucks.

I saw you breaking the 5th Commandment. Congress passes these things for a reason.

I think you answered your own question. It was "a made for tv movie that came out in 1992".
I personally didn't think the picture quality was that bad.

I saw it on an HD channel and yeah, it was pretty bad. They probably just filmed it on bad cameras :(

Seeing that this was a made-for-TV movie that came out in 1992, the filmakers probably used some of the most up-to-date equipment they had available.

It was made for TV in 1992 and looked pretty good then.

Half of the people on this forum were not even born when this movie came out. This is a pretty old movie.
