2001 - A Space Odyssey limited collector's edition released in Europe - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

Just to let you know that the 2001 - A Space Oddysey box set is released
this weekend in Europe.The boxset features a booklet, senitype, soundtrack
(the remastered one from 97) and the dvd. The dvd shows the new anamorphic
transfer wich was also made for the rerelease this. All I can say that it
blows away the current region1 release, it looks very impressive!

I noticed two differences between the old region1 release and the new
region2 one:

the old region1 had a animated menu, the new region2 is static.

the old region1 had the interview with Arthur C. Clarke, the only extra on
the region2 disc is the trailer.

This exact same limited edition collector's boxed set will be released in Region 1 in early June, with similar boxes for A CLOCKWORK ORANGE and FULL METAL JACKET slated to follow shortly thereafter...

The transfer is great. The only comment I have on the PAL release is that I noticed the increased tone pitch caused by the 4% speedup during the Daisy singing scene with HAL.
