Here's the first one for The Right Stuff http://dvdmg.com/rightstuffse.shtml
More extras, but the transfer still sucks with the exception of less edge enhancement.

Yes, they made that change well after the review was first posted. The Giant review is from the same reviewer who originally claimed that the Eraserhead DVD was a two-disc set <small>(?)</small>, had PCM audio, and had interviews with most of the cast and crew, all of which were incorrect.
