OVERALL: Draw
The Flicker Alley standalone Limited Edition includes the 5.1 score by Air, an interview with the band, and a (lossy) Robert Israel score.
The Flicker Alley standalone reissue loses the Air score, interview, and the Robert Israel score, but gains additional scores.
The German release appears to have a different score by Lawrence Lehérissey, although this is reported to only be in (lossy) DTS.
The UK release has its own exclusive extras with a (lossless) Robert Israel score, plus a 214-page hardback book for the limited edition.
Note for the Flicker Alley Steelbook release disc replacement
Please note that one of the bonus feature audio options on the Blu-ray disc of our limited SteelBook edition -- A Trip to the Moon in B&W Audio Option 1, featuring Robert Israel's orchestral score and the original English narration written by Georges Melies -- is currently missing its narration track and only features Robert Israel's orchestral score - All Blu-ray discs shipped at this time will be with this orchestral score only configuration.
Please contact Flicker Alley directly about replacement discs.
