I guess that pretty much settles it... thanks all for setting me on the right path.
More than likely the person who swears the THX were different than the GOUT we watched is simply remembering some of the SE changes.
He has the Faces P&S VHS tapes so if he isn't convinced he can show me what he was talking about (problem is he doesn't have a vcr anymore and he "remembers" it being different from the 2006 dvd but has no way to prove it w/o coming over to my place)
