Comparison last updated by Eric_Cotenas on 25/02/19
UPDATE LOG:
03/04/17: Added some detail in extras.
The alternate opening on the Blu-rays is virtually identical to the opening as it is in the feature presentation except for a different
title card. The differences between the alternate ending on the Blu-rays and the finished film are difficult to discern.
