I just picked up the single-disc Escape From New York from Target. It's got the newer style MGM 16:9 logo, and the copyright date is 2003, the year of the two disc SE. The big blurb at the top is also different. I believe the old one said "Dark and Dangerous". This one says "Riveting". The video files are dated 11/10/2003. The disc is still a DS/SL, but I have a feeling this may be the new transfer compressed to fit on a single-layer side. Video folder is 3.88GB. I never had the old single-disc, but I hear it had a lot of print flaws. I've scanned scenes on this disc and did not see any.
Anyone that is familiar with the older MGM release, can you point me to some scenes or timecode that had particularly bad video flaws? I can then post some screen shots of this version.
