Total Recall DVDs

Does anyone know the differences (PQ & Special Features) between these 3 R1 DVDs of Total Recall:

Special Limited Edition Mars Packaging (OOP)
Artisan Special Edition
THX Optimum Resolution

Also, if the latter 2 have Slip Covers?

I'd appreciate any help.

When I bought the Artisan Special Edition wayyyyyy back in like 2001 or something (at a Sam Goody), it did indeed come with a slipcover replicating the artwork.

Well, the disc has arrived and I am tremendously disappointed. The print used is the same dirty, uneven print used for all prior DVD releases, and the THX Optimum bullshit Resolution enhancement has provided only the most minimal improvement to the clarity of the image

I got the one in the round tin and hate it each time I reorganize or move my DVDs around.

I keep mine in the holder it came in, it's not so bad although it's got to be about the strangest packaging I've seen. I can see where it would be a royal PITA if it doesn't have the cardboard packaging/holder anymore. -kd5-
