Video Notes:

It's a very naturally soft film so the 4K's the best it's ever gonna look and it's actually one of Paramount's well-encoded UHDs; still not free of Paramount's typical tomfoolery though according to Geoff D

Audio Notes:

Theatrical Cut: The Shout UHD DTS-HD 2.0 seems to be the same mix overall as the 1992 laserdisc PCM 2.0 but its not a straight port. Even though there are some minor differences, it does not seem to be a downmix of the 5.1. It could possibly be a new mastering. It has just a tiny bit more dynamic range than the laserdisc, but the laserdisc has a bit more presence in the lower and midrange frequencies.
