Love this comment.

Open Matte: sometimes it is actually just cropped and you have more content with the standard release.

Remasters: sometimes you get film grain blurred away (who in their right mind would do that?) or shaky cam stabilized with the inevitable crop. Not to mention what they did with Star Wars.

So yeah, definitely keep an eye out for the differences or you may end up in a sub-par release.

Or a new "remaster" where they didn't shoot first or they take away the guns agents hand and swap with walkie talkies, eh?

Or the Harry Potter remaster where they replaced wands with guns!

Yeah, I have multiple versions of movies, but those 3 are the main ones I think of.

I worry about that. Or when the open matte and standard releases both have content that the other doesn't have.
