When you consider the crawl, that technically makes it a new version of the film. You have the 77 release and its 3 soundtracks, the 81 rerelease with the new crawl/flyover and the same soundtracks, the 85 home video release with a new soundtrack, the 1993 home video release with a new soundtrack, and the 2006 release with a restored 77 crawl/flyover. It fits with GL’s penchant for tinkering. It should have included the 77 stereo soundtrack. But we have fixed that with our fan release of the GOUT.
I have a hard time calling a release of a movie with a different sound mix a different version. At some point you’re getting a little petty. Are these Dolby and DTS mixes that we get on home releases the theatrical mixes, or do those have more tracks? (genuine question) would you consider a VHS tape a different version than the same movie on DVD because it’s mixed down to stereo? Is the Amazon Video release of TFA a different version of the film because it’s Dolby 5:1, not DTS?
