About a year or so ago, there came rumors that MGM was working on a Bridge Too Far SE release for R1. Whatever happened with that title?

Also, I was thinking that this is one movie that could really benefit from a Lowry Digital restoration. The current print is very soft and washed out with lots of scratches, dirt, and just in general a lousey tranfer. Plus it's only in 2.0 sound. A fully remastered 5.1 track would be greatly appreciated.

So has anybody ever heard anything more about this title?

Is there an SE in another region? If you know, what's on it in the way of extras?

Well, I believe there is a R2 version. As far as extras go, I have no idea. But I still stick with my previous assessment, that this movie definately needs a digital restoration.

The R2 SE is also in Dolby 5.1.

Lucky bastard.

That's a nice SE. Hope they bring to R1 eventually. You know another WWII movie I would like to see get an SE. The Eagle Has Landed.

It might come out, since it was Artisan and now it's Lion Gate. Lion's Gate has been releasing all there's with SE
