List of films with lossless original tracks not available on Blu-ray or UHD
Time

I don’t think there’s a (UHD) blu-ray release of The Dark Crystal with the original Dolby Stereo track…

Oh! Also, Star Trek: The Motion Picture hasn’t had a home release with its original Dolby Stereo track since laserdisc.

The Beatles’ Help! has never had ANY official home release with its theatrical mono audio. Just remixes. For that matter, I’m not sure about A Hard Day’s Night, either…

Also, the extended cut of The Blues Brothers only ever had remixed audio on its digital releases. Its Laserdisc and VHS releases do have Dolby Stereo tracks, but I don’t know whether or not those were sourced from the remix or the original mix…

The 4K release of Alien doesn’t have the fake headlights on LV-426 that the 2010 blu-ray had. There have always been very faint headlights in the frame, but for some reason they added very lazy (bright yellowish) digital fakes in the blu-ray release, because they thought it was important you knew the crew members’ exact position or something, even though it was an establishing shot immediately before they’re more clearly visible in the frame…

Alien
“-As the sun rises over LV-426, three helmet lights (representing the astronauts) have now been added, as they make their way round a large rock formation (for the 2010 Blu-ray).
-The CGI mist that drifts past the derelict entrance as the three astronauts enter, is now missing from the 2010 Blu-ray.
Alternate take used for the insert shot of the Alien, just before Brett is attacked (for the 2010 Blu-ray).” -Slavicuss

Has anyone checked the recent 4K release?
