I own both the Alliance and German blu-rays of The English Patient. The new disc is clearly superior to both of the earlier ones. The Alliance disc has undersaturated colors and shows heavy grain and print damage at times - it looks kind of like watching an old, faded print in a 99 cent...

Perhaps Lucas "does what he does" because he realizes that the type of people who carry on in these threads will never be pleased no matter what he does.

I'm looking forward to Chinatown on Blu-ray, which is in my personal top 5. It's also on Vudu, but I haven't watched it.
