I didn't think that Alliance released a DigiBook. Are you sure it's not just the Canadian edition of the Warner version? Alliance's disc is way worse, featuring a weak transfer that has been cropped, and lacking the special features (I think).

It's definitely a digibook. The logos at the start of the disc are Alliance

Does anyone know if there is a difference in OAR or transfer on the Alliance digibook release versus the WB/New Line digibook release?
I ordered this via Amazon Marketplace thinking I was getting the US version. The Alliance version showed up instead. Obviously the packaging is slightly different w/ the bi-lingual cover and spine, but I want to make sure the transfer, sound, etc is the same before I decide what I need to do here.
Thanks!

That's really weird, I had no idea that Alliance released a DigiBook version. What you should do is pop the disc in and see if the aspect ratio is 1.78:1 or 2.40:1. The former is what Alliance cropped their release to, and the latter is the original aspect ratio, which Warner released their copy in. Alliance has done direct ports of U.S. releases before (it's just rare) so maybe this is a case where in addition to re-releasing the movie in a DigiBook, they re-did their disc as well. Check the aspect ratio and the special features, and report back.

looking at the last couple pgs of this thread ....
http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...250155&page=13
... looks like it should be a revamped version for the Alliance digipack ... at least I didn't see any complaints that would indicate otherwise

Checked the disc...correct aspect ratio, 7.1 sound, all the supplementals. I guess I'm good!
