They're both 50GB BDs. Not sure how large the movie files are though.

Why are they BD50s then I wonder? Road Warrior only has commentary as an extra. Mad Max only has commentary and an SD featurette.

Lots of audio tracks I guess.

The first number is the file size of the stream (movie) and the second is the total disc size. They won't fit on one disc unless they were re-encoded.

Mad Max (27.8 GB; 31.2 GB)
The Road Warrior (22.7 GB ;23.7 GB)
Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome (27.7 GB; 28.6 GB)

Thanks for clarifying. Those first numbers do also represent all audio track iterations included, which I forgot about. (You can lop off another 4 GB from those numbers if you are just including the main audio track.)

Yeah generally it would mean they had to drop something if they moved to less discs. If it were something negligible I wouldn't care (heck, I'd even be really enticed by new packaging), but it feels better to have no compromises at all if it can be confirmed. So I'm glad to hear it's the same discs.
