@ gary you may way add two things to the comparison... first to stargate: the ultimate edition has a very strange transfer bug in the extended cut when daniel finds the "camel". in that scene you see a burn in the film source itself right over daniel's face. but this is not to be found in...
@ gary
metropolis was shot at 25fps which was also preserved with the pal release. that means that the eureka and the film sans frontières play the film in the correct speed as it was indented. so no pal speed up for this baby here ;)
@ gary
the region 1 dvd of gladiator has dts 6.1 es discrete and not only 5.1! as far as i know this was the first retail movie dvd that contained true 6.1 sorround sound. you wanna update in your comparison ;)
@ gary tooze
when will you update the comparison of the tin drum with the criterion collection. i like too know if the german dvd is about the same since it would much cheaper to get this set for me :D
