I really like the -93 mix. That's the one I'm used too and the first one I played in surround. When watching the movie with d pro-logicII, I think it still kicks many 5.1DD soundtracks. So my question is this:

Did they remix the 2.0 pcm track for the 97 SE or did they just create a 5.1 mix?

The 1993 mix was mostly based on the original 70mm 6-track (with a few additional bits added here and there) - this is why it has such a satisfying dynamic range.

The 5.1 mix for the SE is not an upmix from a 2.0 Dolby Surround track; it was probably remixed from the original stems.
