It was. Do it if you ever can. You can also easily tell the difference between new and original, like THX. The 2003 English extended GBU did not seem all that impressive on the big screen, whereas Fistful was stunning on a smaller screen in the same venue. (Restored in Italy to boot.) Duck, You Sucker looked great in size but I wasn't too happy with MGM's restoration work or the 5.1 mix. Best of all was the print of For a Few which was so degraded that the theater had posted signs offering money back to those who didn't like degraded prints. That movie truly came alive, even with one shot gone pink, damage popping up, and the mono being degrade so that the opening half was too low and the ending was ear piercingly loud. Sadly, this was MGM's best archive print and after their Leone work had been completed.

THX should look more like The IPCRESS File than AOTC. Maybe a slightly better or faster stock in 6 years, but otherwise rather similar.
