Majority of the 4k releases, especially from bigger companies always mandatory comes with Dolby Atoms that turned out to be cash-grabbed upmixes, when what they've could've done was to give us the original unaltered theatrical mixes.

Do people do remixes?

I do, if done with love and respect (88 films Dragons Forever)
The John woo films were crying out for immersive surround mixes.
The ones on here are 'interesting' hence why I asked here.

Yeah, original mixes are always a must.
We have the option for both on the recent Arrow John Woo discs.
9 times out of 10 I agree that the remixes are terrible, I'm on the fence with these.

I wanted to hear others thoughts before I give my 2 cents.

Exactly.
