I pray that the studio goes light on the DNR for this one...

I hope they do. I really hope they remastered the soundtrack as well. Always thought it had a tin can sound to it.

Oh, and I noticed that when TheDigitalBits first ran the story for this release, the info they posted (taken directly from the press release) claimed that this would be the first time the original Australian audio track would be available in the US, despite the fact that the R1 SE DVD I've had for years definitely has the original Australian audio.

Yeah, I have been watching it with the original Australian audio for as long as I know.

Speaking of which, the specs you listed seem to indicate that the American dub will be the default audio on this release. I hope that's not the case ...

It would be silly. After the success of Road Warrior and Thunderdome, people should be used to an Australian Mel Gibson movie by now. I would like to hear the American track, because I haven't, but I don't want it as the main track.
