Ah, the same cover art lulled me into thinking it was the same release company, nice one for the correction.

Zodiac is one of the oddities like Watchmen, a film produced by two studios Paramount and Warner Bros. in the US Zodiac starts out with a Paramount logo over here then it's followed by the Warner Bros. our Zodiac is a port of the Japan version and a different encode from the US disc which results in the UK feature been almost half the size of it's US counterpart. Apart from the sound (we only got a DD5.1) the video quality isn't miles apart from the screen grabs I've seen.

From what I have heard so far, it is mostly catalog titles/independent films which differ in quality.I guess newer movies like 'I am number four','unknown',etc won't have any differences, right? Also, why sis it that people keep saying uk versions consume less space on the discs? Shouldn't it be the other way around, with them having more language tracks?
