This disc is almost reference quality. Toggling between it and the Lowry DVD isn't even too far off. The print source is unbelievably clean with less than 10 print specks throughout the entire feature. Good color, none of the aliasing issues from Raiders, good amount of fine detail....but again it's the audio that's most enthralling.

You know how they always tell you matrixed audio can't beat discrete 5.1?

This comes close. Damn close. Temple is loud, boisterous, dark and isn't afraid to beat your senses into submission. Sure, there are some things buried here and there due to the Dolby matrix process and there may be a few slight variations ala 35 vs 70mm mixes, but it's a really really fun and lively track to listen to. I may even prefer it to the 5.1 simply because it hasn't been digitally scrubbed and EQ'd for DVD.

If you have a LD player, you need this one.

God, I love this movie.
