Hi Michael, Politically the response was expectantly vague and the 'this' could have referred to a number of complaints I listed - including the simultaneous release of two different versions - as well as my observation that the Director would not have approved a cropped, stretched, and color...

By the way Michael R. - I apologize for all this in your review thread - I initially just wanted to know why, the heck, my version was different. It was so strange to have the French only menus and no Eng in the extras. I had no intention of hijaking this thread away. I'll post the results to...

As you might appreciate Michael, I don't want to expose personal email communication with DIVA DVD Producer, Mark Rance and the unnamed person from Lions Gate but it starts: (blush) I'll cover the US edition soon... Best, Gary P.S. This very well may be 'Maple' 's fault.

I'm not as sure as you - people, when educated about what is a proper transfer will more likely choose the one most accurate to the theatrical appearance (coupled with other factors - supplements, audio etc.) In my experience those capture comparisons are like night and day. Certainly you are...

I doubt they do Michael E., but the zooming indicates that the Lions Gate edition I own has had a common form of digital manipulation which produces those, now visible, halos. This is commonly referred to as 'edge-enhancement'. What this means is the contrast has been adjusted, usually, in the...

On my issue there is no English overDUB - it's all only in French language. How weird is this? I see the edge enhancemnent plainly, if not the specific halos, on my 43" set. I'll report back when I get another Lions Gate Meridian edition (with English menus). Thanks Michael, Gary P.S. If...

Hi Michael - yeah, mine too states it is 'Director Approved' and has all the extras yours does - just no option for English in the supplements. This is a favorite film and although I found it improbable that Lions Gate would release two seperate editions - I am find it equally incredulous...

Without sounding facetious - I own the new Meridian Lions Gate but must have a totally different edition to you as mine has French only menus and no English options on the extras. It's very strange - as if I have a 'Quebecois' version. My Menu The image must be different too as mine is...
