City of Angels is in 5.1! I picked this up in Walmart and can confirm both movies in 5.1 HD audio.

Do you know if the VQ is better than the standalone release?

It figures that a studio would package the worst entries in the series together, just to make a quick buck. "Salvation" tried hard to be a good story, but so much of the content ruined it. The first is a classic.

It's in 1080P now and it's the longer cut. This is the release to get it seems.

Seems that they re-purposed the transfer that we got in the UK, in the pack with Salvation. Congrats, guys.

Yes sir. The combo pack has City of Angels in 1080P, 5.1 HD audio and it's the director's cut. It's basically what the first release should have been. Plus you get the terrible 4th Crow movie as what I will call a very "special" feature

It runs for 90:44 to be exact. The PQ is OK at best. It's got some signs of softness and some digital tinkering, but it's not a total DNR fest either. It's a tick better than the old release IMO. It's also framed in 1.85:1 now.

Edit: My mistake the original release was also 1.85:1....just labeled incorrectly on the artwork.
