aspect ratio here is a matter of tastes but the full frame was on the criterion on harryhausen suggestion.
the dvd is 1:78:1 anamorphic widescreen. not letterbox i was wrong i looked it up.
real bare bones release though. i hear clash of the titans is getting a new clean transfer remastred for blu ray with all the bells and whistles, but no remaster for standard dvd.
i do own the pioneer special edition of the 7th voyage of sinbad it is oar 1:33:1 unlike the dvd and has an isolated score also not on the dvd.
i am going to have to drop serious cash to get the criterion release of jason, unless i can somehow get it for cheap.
the one problem reviewers have had with the criterion release is that the sound is in monaural and the feature was recorded in stereo which is very strange.
i have also read that the pioneer release was better in terms of picture but did not have the commentary.
