Braveheart Blu-ray: US vs. UK

[Farid]

It's actually two different releases.

Both in terms of specs and bonus features.

The sound of the US release is Dolby TrueHD, where the UK is DTS-HD MA. Any reason to believe that one is better than the other?

Bonus features are also quite different.

Dolby TrueHD 5.1
Audio commentary by director/actor Mel Gibson
"Braveheart Timelines" interactive feature
"Battlefields of the Scottish Rebellion" interactive feature

"Smithfield: Medieval Killing Fields" featurette (HD - 25:19)
"Tales of William Wallace" featurette (29:57)
"A Writer's Journey" featurette (21:30)
Theatrical trailer #1 (1:40)
Theatrical trailer #2 (2:54)

Damn, just ordered the UK version over the USA version....I'm an extras nut...my loss

[Dubstar]

too bad a new commentary couldn't have been made for the bluray release - the only and current one is soooo sleep inducing. Mel Gibson at his most lethargic

Yeah but the US is region coded so up the arse with that one for overseas buyers

Sucks that they don't put the same extras on the discs
