Amazon says this is a Mediabook. Are you sure it is a Digibook case?

2005 re-release trailer (2:25, 1080p)

Is this the only extra in 1080p? What resolution are the rest of the extras in?

Option to watch with original Daniele Amfitheatrof score in DTS-HD Master Audio 1.0 mono

Is this an alternate audio track in English with the score? Or is this an isolated music score?

[Brent_Reid]

Whoops; I meant Mediabook.

The other extras were originally made in SD, so only exist in that resolution. I don't yet own this disc, so it's possible they could still be encoded in1080p, as Criterion often do, but that's extremely doubtful.

The "Extended Version", more accurately called the preview cut, also has a full soundtrack with the original score.

The "Extended Version", more accurately called the preview cut, also has a full soundtrack with the original score.

But is it an isolated score, or is it with dialogue and effects? Isolated music and/or effects track are listed as extras on our page, but if it has full dialogue, it should be considered as part of the "audio" section.

[Brent_Reid]

The confusion's arisen because of the submission form's limitations in posting specs for two completely separate films. Let's try this:

Disc 1, Preview/Extended Version:
English DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 - full soundtrack, new Caliendo score
DTS-HD Master Audio 1.0 mono - full soundtrack, original Amfitheatrof score
DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 stereo - Isolated (music only), new Caliendo score

Disc 2, Original Theatrical Version:
DTS-HD Master Audio 1.0 mono - full soundtrack, original Amfitheatrof score
DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 stereo - Isolated (music only), original Amfitheatrof score

How's that?

Got it, and cross referenced with Glenn Erickson who worked on this new German disc. Thank you!

[Brent_Reid]

Thank you! I was planning to give Glenn's brilliant review a plug on social media. I'll tag DVDCompare in.
