Got the DVD in yesterday. (The date on it is actually 1998.) Much to my surprise it's the same print Criterion used, sans Anthrax extension. Also, it's 1:85 not 1:66.

Some weird video gremlins watching it upscaled with my Blu Ray player on scenes with flames and wind whipped banners. Actually looked better on my older upscaling DVD player, but that one can't zoom non-anamorphic letterbox very well.

Mono sound was 192kps, although the sound seems lower than on later releases.

Wondering if the 1994 LD is a totally different master now. Still waiting on the mailman.
