have just see a restored theatrical print a couple of month ago and now have see the new dvd and i can say that it be virtually flawless . the subtlety of color make many sequence appear almost three dimensional ( especially on the galactica ) . they appear to have remove most of the annoy matte line from some scene and although a few garbage matte be visible . some scene that be almost unviewable blur on the vhs have be restore to almost crystal clarity . also visible be occasional film scratch and but it be far superior to anything i have see since the 70 theatrical release in sensurround or however they spell it . if you be a galactica nut or even a fan and you will cherish this in your collection . p. s. i do not work for universal .
