Predator 2 new 2 disc SE observations
Picked this up yesterday (early UK import copy), and checked it out briefly.
Cannot really judge the DTS track until I have watched it again properly, but on first hearing there did not see to be a lot of rear speaker activity.
Pic looked ok, but need to watch it through.
But the docs/making of stuff look to be very dissapointing. The so called new retrospective doc is mainly a rehash of the main featurette that appeared on the previous edition, with only occasional snippets from a recent interview with Stephen Hopkins - no one else.
And the rest of the features just seem to use the same footage again.
Not listened to the comentaries, so cannot comment on them.
But it looks like though this may be a slight improvement over the last release, it is certainly far from the definitive edition.
