I was just about ready to order the region A Blu-Ray when I read some posts about the 5.1 remix being subject to criticism. Can anyone that owns this release of Escape from New York confirm whether or not it has the original soundtrack used in the first edition DVD?

I have not yet been able to get an answer to this. Maybe someone who owns it will see this and confirm it for us, as there's a chance one of the releases just have a stereo fold-down of the re-mix.

I tried to do some digging after reading this thread, but there is not a whole lot of reviews talking about the Dolby 2.0 mix provided in this Blu-Ray release;  not surprisingly, only the DTS HD-MA track is discussed.  A user review over at Blu-Ray.com indicates it is not a simple down-mix of the 5.1 track, though.  I was just hoping someone here might also be able to confirm.
