Most people would probably scoff at me for saying this, but I'd like to have an unaltered original - warts and all. While the content is the same, Lowry Digital still tinkered with it.

The sound remix is obvious though - I consider the re-mix better, but I'd still like the original preserved.

American Grafitti was alterered more noticeably. Check out the sunset during the opening sequence at Mel's Diner. My older VHS copy has the original sunset, but my DVD has the ILM CGI sky, which now looks like a sunset on Tatooine.

This begs the question though - is there a widescreen version of the original THX-1138 anywhere? I have it on VHS but it's pan and scan.

I never noticed the tracks being gone....I knew when I read this thread that I'd have to rewatch Raiders now.

Which AG version are you talking about? The original DVD release or the re-bundled one with AG2?

I believe there is a Widescreen LD of THX.....I'm at work and I need to check when I get home.
