The new remastered R1 CE (note, that the old release is using the same "CE" title) is the winner, with improved audio and an anamorphic transfer. It loses the "Isolated Score" available on the documentary from the old release though. Both R1 CE releases have two exclusive short extras.
Please note that pressings after 2008 have had some deletions to content in the audio commentary track. -
