Holy crap! Is that a legit release? There seem to be a lot dodgy releases in Europe. And does it have the original mono?

Oh yes make it happen. Can take care of syncing foreign dubs!

This is indeed a legit release by an outfit called 84 Entertainment. It is region B locked (as opposed to being region free if it were a bootleg or typical Paramount release) and is licensed from Paramount, as their logo is clearly seen on the back cover image. It is said to have the original English mono (DTS_MA) in addition to the 5.1 remix (also in lossless compared to the shitty DC BD) and the German theatrical dub.
Apparently, it uses the same HD transfer of the theatrical cut as the Paramount DVD, and the real reason it uses that version is because the German dub only exists for the former and not the Directors Cut version with those tacky inserts.

Someone on BD.com said it was the same English mono as the R1 Paramount DVD, which I heard was the original and not a downmix (Paramount isn't known for doing that unlike say MGM). Being the 84 BD uses the same master as R1 TC DVD but in native HD, good chance the English audio tracks are all the same as the R1 DVD master but with lossless encoding.
