The snake reflection can be had from the snippet on the documentary disc (LD master, 4:3 interlaced letterbox).

I'm not sure if it's present in its complete form on that featurette, I know the boulder sequence is. It was the source for the comparisons I made here: http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Raiders-of-the-lost-ark-bluray-and-colour-timing-changes/post/633298/#TopicPost633298

I don't think the huge drop in resolution would be a price anyone is willing to pay. I don't know, perhaps the sequences are available unaltered in much better quality in the Blu-ray set extras?

Also, in the Blu-ray, the three shots of the boulder they altered are a bit different in the way they digitally painted out the pole compared to the DVD and WOWOW. Different job with different results.

The LD audio is a must. I still only watch the trilogy this way because the picture is good to outstanding, and the sound has yet to be beaten.

Has anyone captured the original 35mm Dolby mix? Would love to see that done.

Are there also major differences in the sequels across DVD-WOWOW-BD?

I don't own the sequels in any form so someone else will need to anwer that but it wouldn't surprise me if subtle tweaks have been made on those too.
