How to definitively know you got the remastered version Jan 19, 2011
By Lee Dorry
Pay very careful attention when trying to determine which disc you actually received from Amazon. There's conflicting information on the internet as far as the telltale signs of the remastered disc versus the original crappy transfer. For example, most people tell you the packaging for the new version has a yellow UPC....not always true. Other people tell you the copyright on the back bottom right of the box says 2010 DW Studios LLC instead of the original which says 2009, also not always true.
It seems the only definitive way to tell if you have the new version is to look at the innermost rings on the underside of Disc One itself. Hold it up to the light, and at the end of a string of letters and numbers, you should see "B1R2". If you have anything else (i.e. B1R1), you have the original version and NOT the remastered one!
If so, exchange it promptly.

 A Total Mess Aug 24, 2009
By Jay
This review refers to the blu-ray picture quality only. The movie itself is an absolute classic. Unfortunately this blu-ray was a victim of considerable DNR and EE that has actually removed and distorted picture detail. Here's a good example. At the beginning of the movie where we see Maximus as a General leading a final battle, you see an amazing wide shot of flying, flaming, arrows. It should look amazing, right? Wrong. The picture was DNR'd so badly that it actually removed arrows and the ones you can see are a blurred mess! Absolutely terrible. Don't waste your money on this. Wait until they release a quality blu-ray because "this is not it!"

Classic movie - defective release Aug 31, 2009
By Adam Clotfelter
The version about to be released on 2009-09-01 is defective. Picture quality is from the 2000 DVD master. I would advise waiting until an updated release is made available, don't let them make you pay twice!!

 Remaster confusion put to rest... hopefully. Feb 04, 2011
By William Swope
I do have the remastered version and it looks and sounds great! At first I wasn't sure. After doing some research I have confirmed that I HAVE THE REMASTERED VERSION.
BD has yellow UPC bar code not white.
2-DISC SET does not appear above the Paramount logo on the slip case (outside cardboard of BD packaging). However, and this is what threw me off; 2 DISC SET does appear above Paramount logo on the inner sleeve of keep case.
Remastered version no longer has a white, titled security sticker on the top of the case.
As for the inner ring number issue there are multiple numbers identifying the disc as the remastered version.
NA13081B1R2 - remastered version
BVDL-103860B1 (on my BD) is ALSO the correct number for REMASTERED copies of Gladiator.
The final confirmation that I had the remastered version; all the arrows appear in the opening battle sequence.

Horrible Transfer Aug 29, 2009
By Tromaboy
"oversights"
Universal/Paramount really botched this transfer the extended scenes look fine but the theatrical footage uses the same transfer as the DVD I'd wait for another edition.
