Why do videos of screens look amazing even when viewed on an inferior monitor? This is not a new observation of mine - even as a child, I'd see fuzzy, snowy commercials for big screen TVs on my 13 inch color TV, and they always looked so much better than the TV I was watching them on.

The second person who mentions this here, now i am curious, i personally do not experience it. What images stand out for you? Is it because they use ‘splashy’ footage and fancy bg on the screens on a dark bg?
