Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World: Two-Disc Special Edition=

    Master and Commander will be released in a one and two-disc DVD edition in both R1 and R4. R1 consumers can also purchase "full screen" (pan & scan) versions. The comparison below is for the two-disc widescreen edition (there will be a separate review for the one-disc edition).

    The Region 4 DVD misses out on:

  • French Dolby Digital 5.1 audio
  • Spanish Dolby Digital Stereo Surround audio
  • Spanish subtitles
  • Trailers for The Day After Tomorrow; I Robot, and Man on Fire.
  • Master and Commander Theatrical Teaser, Theatrical Trailer, and the International Trailer

    The Region 1 DVD misses out on:

  • Nothing

    I would call it pretty even. Although the R1 has a few more trailers included, personally I would still prefer our R4 version for the superior PAL transfer. In using a projector, and watching a very large projected image, I really do see the difference that PAL's extra resolution provides.
