GITS remake for the high definition era!

I always hesitated a bit to buy Ghost in the Shell on Blu-Ray because I thought the movie wouldn't look much better in high definition then it looks on standard DVD...
And suddenly out of nowhere came a remake, and this boxset got announced.
It includes 3 BD discs and an audio CD.
I watched both movies on the same day, so I could tell if the differences were huge or not, and I can say that they are! The 2.0 remake looks really nice in 1080P, and especially the audio parts have been renewed to Dolby True HD, while the old Ghost in the Shell movie is only two channels (to be precise it says Dolby Surround in the specs of the old movie, which is a bit outdated nowadays). Also the old movie looks grainy and washed out if you compare it directly to the 2.0 version. While the 2.0 version uses the whole screen, the old movie is shadow boxed if you watch it with overscan switched off (small black bars on all four sides). What I don't especially like are the newly inserted CG scenes, my personal opinion is that they are completely unnecessary.
The third disc 'Privilege Disc' includes staff interviews and other things.
Also included with my set was a film stripe bookmark, and a collectors card, which might both only have been included with the first press edition.
This is a really nice set, that also includes english subtitles. Perfect, don't hesitate to buy it!
