All this is despite the movie having been put onto a 100GB disc, and although I regularly chide Disney and Fox for treating triple deckers like the plague this disc is proof enough that even if you've got the space you still need to have people who know what they're doing with it.

Haha. Funny you mention that shot, just saw it and it was definitely a WTF moment for me
Not going to watch the movie until this weekend but I did have a cheeky little look at the opening five minutes and A/B'd the old Studio Canal disc. The additional highlight information struck me straight away. You hit the nail on the head with the 'filament in the bulbs' analogy. Almost seems like they rescued a little too much on occasion.
