FWIW: only the 1997 Special Edition is actually a “special edition”

Everything else is just a new alteration. It’s honestly way more accurate and understandable to delineate by year of release (04, 06, 11, and now 19) than it is to just say “SE”

Also, considering what they’ve upped to Disney+, I think it’s a good bet these versions will be issued on 4K UHD next year, and that’s probably when people are going to get to really dig into how it looks, because I would imagine even for households with fine enough internet to pull down a real 4K file, the compression on Disney’s side is going to be considerable enough to make trying to do accurate side-by-side comparisons pretty difficult.

edit: LOL, Dre JUST said the same thing one post up. I should just stop.
