Bought this set a few weeks back but only had a chance to watch it last night.
All I can say is AWESOME!!!
I am old enough to remember seeing this in the Theater - actually, I saw it at a sneak preview a couple of weeks before its first theatrical run - I was 11 at the time. It was then , one of the best movies I had ever seen and it remains one of my all time favorites.
I have read mixed reviews on the sound and have to say, on my system, it sounded marvelous! Probably almost as good as the theater - theaters in 1980 weren't all state of the art, although as I recall Raiders was the first film shown at the New Capital Six in Victoria, where I grew up, so the sound was state of the art for the day. It is certainly the best sounding version I have heard since the theatrical release. And the wide screen, oh how I missed the wide screen!
Anyway, this gets a big thumbs up from me and I can not wait to watch the rest of the films in the series.
Regards,
Yam
