Comparing the DVD Directors Edition and the recent HD broadcast I have found that it has no real differences (IMHO). In fact on the HD (which seems poorer) the picture is slightly cropped and the colors are more saturated than others. I actually prefer the Directors Edition since they used the original film negatives (RESTORED and BAKED) for the trasnfer. The HD broadcast used a film copy, this has been noted. I am sure what ever Fanfiltration does will be fine either way. He knows what he is doing!
