Dear Sony,
Why oh why are you wasting the SuperBit name on crappy Z-grade movies like Anaconda, A Knight's Tale, and Vertical Limit when you could put your resources to good use on these classic and note worthy titles??:
Lawrence of Arabia with a new 65/70 mm Super Panavision restoration and color timing by Robert Harris to David Lean's final vision (which, to this date, has never been completed). Include the original directionalized dialog track with spruced up surround channels all digitally restored. This would include the never-before-seen (to modern audiences) balcony sequence added back into the final cut. In order to do that let Mr. Harris and Co. do a casting call for proper voice impersonators to finalize the re-loop sessions done in the late 80's for the first DC restoration. And please include Mr. Harris's authentic 65mm trailer, audio commentary by Mr. Harris, and a superb DTS soundtrack.
Spread onto two discs with a much better break. Third disc chock full of interesting and insightful documentaries, interviews, etc.
The current DVD is a travesty in every sense of the word.
Das Boot: Director's Cut. Movie spread to two DVD-9 discs with a brand new 1080p HD transfer and included quality DTS track for the original German soundtrack (from the newly remixed 8 channel digital master). Third disc for supplements. Better translated English subtitles as well.
Thank you.
