I can chime in, as I have (almost?) all the HDTV recordings available…
- Cinemax (Theatrical cut) AFAIK it’s the only TC version available; there is also a German mux around here, but video seems untouched
1080i MPEG-2 29.97fps 12.8mbps - the best version around, period! Color grading is cold, tealized
- France (Extended Edition)
1080i AVC 25fps 7mbps - UK (Extended Edition) presumably Sky
1080i AVC 25fps 5.8mpbs - RTS UN HD (Extended Edition) with commercial breaks
720p AVC 50fps 10.2mbps
image is soft, cropped on right or both sides; color grading neutral - seems to stay between Cinemax and DVD
- AXN HD (Extended Edition open matte)
1080p AVC 23.976fps 8.3mbps - Unknown (Extended Edition open matte)
1080i AVC 25fps 7.7mbps
image is soft, not cropped on the sides (apart obviously missing some details due to the fact it’s open matte); color grading as DVD, plus magenta blanket
- Japanese
I have lost it! 😦
image was not bad AFAIR, but with annoying hardsubs in the image; color grading warm and unique to this version (like, for example, T2 onto squeezed LD first edition); it possibly be a transfer without color timing
Notes:
- ALL DVDs (PAL and NTSC) have the same color grading
- Dealer tape contains about 70minutes of the movie (have still to check it, but probably it’s the first part without trims [EDIT: CONFIRMED!] ); color grading is different from any other - in some shots is similar to one version, while in the shot after is similar to another…
- Laserdisc is also available at 1.90:1; again, color grading seems different from other version, but it still has the magenta blanket (still to check if 2.35:1 is different)
Comparisons, from top to bottom: Japanese, DVD, AXN, UK, Cinemax
