I put some major effort into getting the right technical equipment to record this on hard disc. I am currently trying to merge the different files I received into one bit. What I got was underwhelming:
Pro:

It was the Turner cut
resolution 1080i (?)
English and German dub (which I like, it was the first version I ever saw)

Con:

not the correct aspect ratio (probably closer to 1:2.2 or so)
lousy bitrate: the total file is only around 6GB large
German title/credit
the “TNT Film HD” logo on the top right side

Comparing it on a large screen to the DVD version (Turner cut) upscaled, I find it hard to choose a winner. Maybe marginally this new version.

I still have a bit of hope - one guy in the cable/sat shop showed some mercy after I returned again the third day in a row to figure out the right configuration, and offered to record it for my on his satellite set-up. If has has done this, this could be a substantially higher bitrate. Will keep you posted
