When was the restoration done? Was Friedkin involved? Cut or uncut?

How'd it get out of Disney's claws?

Lots of second variables there.

Just remember, this is the guy who thinks the 4K of Heat is reference. Remember that.

Also, this is the guy who just had a movie hit 4K, one of the most awaited, most demanded movies ever, a movie with whole boxes of excess film...and told the studio to sit on it...because he has final say.

We're only getting one cut of Mohicans here, and I have no clue which cut it will be.

Will this have more AI f*ckery, or will it be normal? Se7en has me worried.

I've never seen Legacy, but I know for a fact Tron had edits to it. The 2002 DVD had the film as released. The 2012 remaster removed a significant part of the film's original effects, so hopefully they're decent enough to add it back in.

Will this have the correct color timing, as represented by the 2005 DVD, or the color timing of the 2010 Blu-ray, with its Ritrovata piss-washed color scheme? Make or break.

All in all, I hope I'm just being too negative, these all get released, and they're all solid discs. However, with Disney being Disney, can you all really blame me?!?

This. The earlier colour timing for The Sound of Music is the version I grew up with and very much prefer, and I consider it a pretty drastic difference from the 2010 restoration. It's one of the reasons I have never actually picked it up in HD. I wouldn't be interested in a 4K if it maintained the 2010 look.
