Not as far as I know, other than the R1 (NTSC) and R2 (PAL) variations. It is a superb DVD.

Cheers, I have rented it from Blockbusters website, but it doesn't say whether it is stereo or surround. I am hoping it is the DTS DVD I have about.

I've just bought this from HMV for £8.99, but before buying, checked what versions they had on their database - they did have another version on DVD, but they were no longer able to supply it. The info they had didn't show differences.

When it was first released there were definitely 2 versions - DTS or DD 5.1.
Not sure about availability now though.

The R1 version has both DTS and DD. There are two different covers, one with a red DTS band at the top, the other does not have it
