This question has appeared in other post but instead of answering the main question it's shifted to the other topic. So, I ahd changed that post's title and want to ask the same question here.

So who released this Westworld 3 x 400

If I got the other Westworld that seems to be having different cover like the picture below (which I am sure it was releaased by MGM), do you think I will have the same quality with the above or which one is better?

Your comment is vey much appreciated.

Thanks

My guess is that the top one you pictured is probably also the MGM release but it is likely that at some point someone respooled it onto a 1200ft spool and it became seperated from the original boxes.

It looks to me as though it has now been broken down onto 400 ft spools again and someone has copied the image from perhaps a DVD or Video cover and pasted it on the front of the generic white boxes.

Mike

ps. if you're looking for this title I do have a spare copy of the MGM 3 x 400ft in original boxes that I would sell, if you're interested I'll hook it out and watch it through so that I can tell you what condition it's in.

Hi Winbert

I cn tell you that "Westworld" was released by MGM and was availble here in the UK through Walton Films.
The picture you have on the front of your box is actually the region 1 DVD cover.
Westworld was never released by Derann or anybody else only MGM done a 400' and a 3 x 400'
Hope this answers your question for you
