Anyway--as much as the prospect of watching the film with the 2004 audio horrifies me, image-wise this project does sound very interesting and worthwhile.  Can anyone verify that it has the same frame count as the GOUT?  If it does, then any GOUT-synched soundtrack could be used instead for those sufficiently motivated to re-mux it themselves.  I do think the stereo and 70mm mixes got it much more right than the mono version in terms of balance, but the mono is at least a '77 authentic and still worthwhile.

 The running time is 2:01:00.

I don't know if that's exactly what the GOUT is, but I would love for someone to add the stereo mix and replace the 5.1 with your 70mm recreation. What's funny is the disk is only 6.7GB, so ED could have included at least the 2.0 from the GOUT itself, no idea why it was decided to leave it out. You could probably include every single sound mix plus the 5.1, actually. Maybe someone will do a re-author...
