Title

Best

Mummy, The: Ultimate Edition

The Region 4 edition misses out on:

dual-disc Amaray case that is the same thickness as a regular case
director's signature on the front cover
4:3 version of the movie on the second disc
attractive typeface for subtitles

The Region 1 edition misses out on:

an absence of advertisements before the movie
subtitles in many languages (has only English, French and Spanish)

The Region 1 disc has a slightly better video transfer, but it is in NTSC. Both versions have Dolby Digital and dts; both have three commentaries; both have all of the extras (and it's a long list!). Difficult to call which is superior - I think you would be pretty happy with either.

The dual disc Amaray case is nice, because it is the same dimensions as a normal case, so it looks good in the rack. I do wish they'd use those in R4, rather than the bulkier cases for two disc sets.

I also wish they would stop printing the "DVD User Group" circle on Region 4 slicks - if it were a sticker, I could peel it off.
