It has become quite clear that this original audio extinction which began in the DVD-age is definitely here to stay. Fucking sad but then again, the stupid masses don't really know the difference or care anyway. As long as there's any audio heard on all speakers on their new audio systems everything is all right.
An original monaural mix redone in 5.1 or 7.1 is pretty much the equivalent to coloring black & white films so why don't go all the way when they are at it? I think the studios should go all out and really reinvent every classic movie out there. Oh damn, I forgot there are boundless of sequels and remakes being worked on at the moment.
