GOUT?

GOUT is the unfortunate acronym the community sort of accepted and kept propagating in the mid 2000s in reference to the 2006 DVDs that had the laserdisc masters included on a bonus disc. It stands for “George’s Original Unaltered Trilogy.”

Apparently it was originally kind of a dumb joke but then people started using it unironically and then it became an accepted sync-standard for restorationists and preservationists. It’s on its way out now though since there are new restorations that don’t base their length and sync on those old laserdisc masters anymore.

GOUT = the 2006 bonus discs.
