the voyager entertainment releases suck they are all mono soundtrack and none of them have the original scope ratio of the theatrical releases. Plus the dvd's pale in comparison to the japan region 2 ones which go for about a hundred bucks a piece. Audiowise laserdiscs will always make a better transfer, in fact the ultimate yamato collection is the laserdisc perfect collection box set of all the films remastered in dolby and some are widescreen.

why are japan dvd's always mastered better I mean even the japan Kurosawa Collection has better audio and video than the criterion here in the states, and most of there star wars laserdiscs beat the pants off the american ones.
