    Remember the story that hit the wires some months (maybe a year) ago, stating that "The Godfather" DVD was struck from a substandard print and that the new, single disc version would correct that? Well, the new platter hit stores Tuesday, but I can't find any confirmation that the new disc is different from what's in the boxed set from a few year's back. Anyone know?

    It has been confirmed that it's the EXACT same disc as in the box set.

    Has Jay stated, the new disc is exactly the same, and according to experts like film restorer Robert Harris,who has restored films such as Vertigo, Rear Window, Spartacus, and Lawrence of Arabia, the current Godfather DVD properly represents the intended look of the film.

    a lot of people complain about the quality of the disc but I quite enjoy it, as well as the rest of the boxed set.

    Thanks all. Being a doofus, I returned my unopened boxed set when I heard a better version was coming. I'll likely now return my unopened single disc and repurchase the box. Good thing gas prices are cheap... :)

    I do appreciate the feedback!

    The only difference is that it's in much better packaging. :righton:
