I see the old USA & UK are VC-1 and the link here claims its an AVC encode, wonder if there other differences (besides dropped extras) ?

All their previous releases of Universal back catalogue have been ports with no difference at all.

Damn it all! So no 2.0 Mono soundtrack? I prefer the original sounds from the movie.

DVD ACTIVE review says it has ENGLISH 2.0

I am curious to see if this has less DNR and original mono soundtrack. I hate the Universal release. DVD looks better tbh.
