Question Fifth Element Remastered Edition

Okay, I plan on getting this soon, and used. However, I don't won't to get the horrible PQ and AQ version, so how do I tell the difference between the original and remastered editions by looking at the packaging? Or is that even possible

If it mentions TrueHD audio on it, then it is the remastered version. The old version only has PCM audio.

The newer version has a silver "experience high definition" written across the bottom of the front cover and on the rear cover at the bottom left hand corner you will see

Full HD
1080

displayed in gold lettering as seen here

Darn that means I have the reference quality one instead of the earlier release, thanks for the heads-up.

so I take it that there is a big difference between the two versions in terms of quality?
