Cross Reviews For New Releases For Example Starship Troopers US vs UK Release

[onehothemi]

If it is possible, this is directed at the individual or individuals that do the reviews for the newest bluray releases, WHO by the way do a kick ass job so thanks. For example, Starship Troopers is due to release on August 5th here in the US, however some of us sprung for our cult favorites like Starship Troopers 1, on bluray, from the UK release. If in the review section a comparision between US and UK releases could be done so that users might be able to determine which looks better if any difference at all exists between releases, so that we know which one to buy if not both that'd be great. Thanks!

Also if anyone out there already has both, is there any difference between the US and UK release of SST?

PQ - U.S version is reported to look a tad sharper than the Import but the film artefacts are reported to be noticeable on the same timestamps.

SQ - Weak Dolby True HD track on the U.S version in comparison to the LPCM track featured on the Import. Surround channels are reported to sound a bit better on the U.S version though the LPCM mix seems to sound marginally better.

Extras - No contest. U.S version wins hands down in this department.

I already own the Import and the U.S copy is on it's way.
