For another striking example of this, see the original Star Trek series. It now looks 10x better than it ever did when originally shown on TV.

As a counter-point I think it looks worse in many ways. You can see the screen make-up jarringly clearly. And the special effects were added after filming, so they have had to be redone.

Fair enough. Whether it looks "better" is subjective. There's no question that it's shockingly higher in resolution and detail, though.
