The DVD had the original mono, did they get rid of that for the BD?? That would be awful, I can't stand that remixed mess half the time. I think the only place the new 5.1 was superior was when the tanker truck explodes.

Van Ling said it was like pulling teeth just getting the studio to include the mono on that dvd (and he said the blu was cranked out without it and that it'll be a whole big thing again next time).

All these supposedly discerning reviewers giving Star Wars a soft pass are probably just worried about appearing too highbrow and criterion-y for their site traffic.
