The top fan choice for GBU can now be the 4K from Kino Lorber

With the exception of the opening producer credit (altered in 1998 for legal reasons) it is 100% the original US theatrical version, thankfully it also fixes the issue from the 1993 LD where a shot of an exploding wall was missing

Kino went as far as to use a 4K scan of a 1967 print and use the mono track from the laserdisc to restore the audio and missing shots (I’m sure they used a different source for the missing shot though)

Agreed.

A Fistful of Dollars and For a Few Dollars More 4Ks are great too. The included BDs are new, and aren’t the same BDs from 2018, and 2019, respectively.

I do agree for Fistful and Few Dollars More they’re the best but sadly not perfect

For Fistful there are some issues with the audio tracks included and Few Dollars More has not only a horrible sounding mono track but is also missing about two seconds of footage in a couple of scenes, but still they’re the best versions available
