WTF???!!! I received my replacement copy today from Amazon and it is MONO!!! While I appreciate that Sony has fixed the sound I wish they had a direct replacement option. This is very frustrating and I am NOT a happy camper!

And yet - there it was - the gorgeous Columbia logo accompanied by the explosion of lights on the surround receiver indicating Dolby Digital [5.1] as the fanfare for the movie exploded across my speakers.  It's really fixed! :banana: Can't wait for my copy to arrive!!!

FYI, I just placed a return at Amazon stating "Defective Disc" as the reason and explained the audio mix-up in the comments box. I had the option of a refund or a replacement and I chose the latter which took me to a page that allowed me to print a postage-paid UPS label. I have a UPS store a...

I still have and treasure my copy of the souvenir book! I remember looking at the picture of the Fertility Dance and thinking "Where were the almost-naked men in the film?" :eek: I, too, have a box of them stuffed away somewhere and remember off the top of my head: Star Trek: The Motion...

Oddly enough, I remember reading somewhere (not sure if it was director Milos Forman or another member of the production) that one of the reasons the film failed to find an audience was because people failed to realize the film was a fantasy.

But what about: "When the day comes that the world begins to look for a new life, it is our hope they may find it here in Shangri-La. Here we shall be with our way of life based on one simple rule--love. And it is our hope that Shangri-La's brotherly love will then spread throughout the world...

Perhaps you should take yours out of simulated surround mode.:D

Found this interesting anecdote on Amazon: "This film came out in 1973 and I saw it in its original full length version (about 3hours and 15 min.) Executives from Columbia Pictures were there, it was the premeire, and they were groaning and at the intermission fights broke out(verbal) and...

I received my copy yesterday and thought I would chime in with my thoughts: While I hate that the stereo soundtrack is missing I am pleased to see the most complete version yet especially since, until now, the restored sequences were considered lost. I, too, had the laserdisc with the inferior...
