I have the French AOD thanks to the recommendation of someone on the board. May have been you dvdmike... I've forgotten. Thank you if so.

Anyway, I was referring to the fact that the HD-DVD is superior to all versions of the AOD US Theatrical Cut out there— though all look terrible— (best of the worst as all are pretty bad). It also has the line not present in some BDs, "So I left her there," by Ash. Of course, the transfers of the International Cut and the Director's Cut blow the HD-DVD out of the water, as its just a different master.

FYI, for anyone concerned about AOD, the color timing of the HD International Cut and Director's Cut are more theatrically-accurate. Saw a print from the 90's projected and it looked very similar.
