The '95 "faces" LDs have the subtitles in the black-bar area, as do the DC LDs and the "faces" widescreen VHS tapes (as well as the "hologram" widescreen VHS tapes from '92/'93).
Since the GOUT used the same masters as the aforementioned LDs, I was hoping that they would leave the subtitles as-is, since the LD subs were positioned in such a way that they weren't cropped off if the image was zoomed in. However, for whatever reason, they decided to re-do the subs for the GOUT DVDs.
