I'll pass. Not something I care to own. It's great for what it is, but i'll save my money for something I can get repeat viewings from.

Hope it's region free.

Also hope that the "Plan 9 Companion" doc is included!

When I saw the first screenshot I was worried because it was colorized and I was ready to cancel my order, but it also has the black and white, thank goodness.

This is one rare case where the aspect ratio is not a deal breaker for me. I only remember seeing this film in 1.33:1 so it does not really matter to me. It would be nice to see it in 1.85.1 but I have grown used to seeing the film in 1.33:1 so it is fine with me.

It would be helpful to know how the picture quality compares to the previous Legend DVD. That was said to be the "most extensive restoration ever" for the title. So has the claimed restoration for this Blu-ray mean that it's had further restoration? I very much doubt it. Sadly the Blu-ray doesn't even seem to have all the extras which were on the DVD.

i agree fully on this,why give us a restored 1:33 whilst we want the original 1:85 restored,a missed opportunity and i guess i'll gonna have to wait a long time untill "some" company picks this up and does it justice.....
also they left out the docu wich lasts over 2 hours and wich is a real gem,most of us have it from the dvd release but those getting this movie on blu and never seen it on dvd with the docu...
now most people would say"why nitpick on this release,we should be glad it even got out no blu"....
well,i'm watching my movies on a 90" 16/9 screen and the difference between a 1:33 and 1:85 is like day and night...

Not so much "left out" as "don't have the rights to".
