MVD 4K Blu-ray see caps but it has the encoding error with the dropped frames

Caveat: the 1.33:1 ratio is NOT included. HDR is sometimes bright.
Warner Archive Blu-ray:original mix new transfer, a tad clearer but not quite as rich sounding
4K Blu-ray has various issues holding it back despite the new scan. No Academy ratio version is included. The new remix audio is louder, harsher and nowhere near as good as the original. The original option on the 4K Blu-ray is processed and sounds lackluster. The LaserDisc sounds best by far with the Warner Archive Blu-ray coming in a close second.

Arrow includes the original 70mm 6-track mix in a discrete form (4.1), as well as the matrixed 35mm Dolby Stereo mix (2.0), both from new transfers. The German Blu-ray uses an earlier transfer dating back to the LaserDisc for the stereo. Both sound good.
Arrow includes a 7.1 Atmos remix, whereas earlier releases include a 5.1 remix.

~2020 WEB-DL
~2020 WEB-DL but has some distortion and an annoying 60 Hz hum (+ harmonics). The disc has most of its bass removed though which I find more jarring but ymmv
