Regarding the new Lawrence of Arabia:

You will be pleased to know it has the CORRECT Superbit transfer on disk 1, plus all the original bonus disk extras. So its finally the way it should be. Unfortunately I already bought the Superbit long ago and I'm not going to buy something twice when it should have been done in the first placce--though I should commend Columbia for rectifying things, unlike many other companies.

As for the original Raiders script--how can you say "thats not Indy"? That IS Indy! Rather, it was the sequels that went off. Raiders of the Lost Ark--much like the original Star Wars--is only VAGUELY like the serials, its more like a Humphry Bogart adventure for most of its running time, like Treasure of Sierra Madre and Casablanca, and that was certainly what Lawrence Kasdan was trying to create. Spielberg and Lucas made things faster and more action oriented in the later sections but the film is still faithful to Kasdan's original conception. By the time we got to Last Crusade it had drifted and evolved into its own thing.
