What actually would have made more sense would have been using a new master for the original release in the first place.
but obviously that's a little too much to ask.
It's crazy for people to act like anyone who doesn't like the new release can just settle for the old release when it is clearly less than ideal.
What are people going to say if Fox did this to the upcoming "Alien" release?
Fox better be prepared for some extreme hate if they grain scrubbed "Alien".
It's not a new master though...

unless taking the same transfer an increasing the bitrate by 50% and bigger file size qualifies it as new?
