Why not do it half-assed? They are a limited edition. LFL isn't looking to break sales records with this edition, and by doing this, he's almost guaranteeing it. We don't want to make the SEs look like a red-headed stephchild now, do we?

We may be getting what we "want", but not what we've wished for. Move along, move along.

[EDIT] I love this from the paragraph below it...

Thankfully, however, both versions of [Apocalypse Now] on the new DVD will be in anamorphic widescreen (unlike some OTHER forthcoming and much-beloved films on disc).
