I'm under the impression their 100th anniversary was in 2012 and the restored version wasn't released until 2015.

Ouch. Guess I need to upgrade.

Am I right in thinking the 50th anniversary release is inferior to the 55th? Or no? The former seems to be all that's available here.

***koberulz*** yes by implication-the 50th anniversary release is inferior to the 55th?

[koberulz]

Anniversary releases are often just repackages, or add a couple of extras or a slip. So it's not necessarily true that a later anniversary release is better.

***koberulz*** How about you and others here that make airy fairy excuses such as 'Anniversary releases are often just repackages, or add a couple of extras or a slip. So it's not necessarily true that a later anniversary release is better'

Put the same effort into reading the reviews on this site that tell you for real that the first edition of Spartacus-1960 on Blu is a travesty, or read the earlier pages in this 60 page thread. There is even separate reviews for the newer edition.

A pity that your reading skills don't match your cricketing skills

[koberulz]

My reading skills are fine, which is why I can read the word "restored" on the front cover of the 50th anniversary version.

The one linked doesn't say 55th anniversary

Which what linked where?

[stratford]

***koberulz*** Pretend you are playing England at Cricket for the Ashes, You are the last batsman, you need 12 runs off the final over how much effort would you make!!

At the top of this site, search for spartacus 1960
The drop down close to the search, choose the stars and stripes.
There are two issues, the two at the top; 2010 and 2015
They are not region locked.
Until you help your self, you get no more help from me!

[koberulz]

Region locking is less relevant than international postage and Amazon's refusal to ship to Australia.

This claims to be restored, but is the 50th anniversary edition. I'm simply asking for confirmation that this is not, in fact, the better transfer and I need to source the 55th anniversary edition from elsewhere.

Nowhere on the cover it reads '55th Anniversary'

That's right. "Restored" is the key word. That's the one.

Gee, you guys could have said that at the beginning instead of making me go crazy looking for 55th edition
