The DVD is geometrically stretched vs the Blu, try aligning then in photoshop.

Is it just me or in the last picture they have used the same font but not as "bold"? In particular, the "i" seem different (too thin)

The aspect ratio is not the same

Bad news: my HDTV copy is corrupted... Sad
Good news: it retains more image on all four sides - the fact it's open matte, too, is a welcome bonus!

From top: BD, BD UHE, HDTV, DVD fullscreen, VHD (thanks to dvdmike)

despite the fact it's only a 720p, the HDTV seems to retain a lot of details, as well as grain.

Fair enough

I preserve movies as they first appeared in Italy.

Great! Now I have the fixed version; I wonder if your version has the same color grading of the HDTV; if so, a combined one could be interesting to get.
