Title Best
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad WorldR1

    The Region 4 disc is missing:

  • more chapter stops
  • featurette: Something a Little Less Serious (61:20)
  • extended scenes (59:25)
  • 1970 re-issue trailer (3:22)

    The Region 1 disc is missing:

  • extra languages

    The R1 disc is double-sided. When I saw that I had a bad feeling - I thought it might be a flipper. I was wrong. The R1 disc is a DVD14, with the movie on one side (RSDL), and the two hours of special features on the other side (single layer). I'd have preferred two discs, because I find double-sided discs more of a pain to handle, but at least it isn't a flipper.

    The R1 disc has a sharper video transfer, and far less aliasing - quite an impressive effort. There are just as many film artefacts, though.

    With the better transfer, plus the special features, I feel obliged to favour the R1 disc.
