NSYGrinner:Just make sure it's the correct ratio the region 2 dvd was 1:1.78 not the correct 1:2.35 which the the region 1 was.
Note this is the Bluray not the DVD although your concerns may still apply
Also some have complained that using the subtitles the text does not just apply to the German voices but also the English for which the studio should be ashamed.
