So I've just found out that Michael Palin, at age 70 or so, rerecorded some of his narration for Monty Python and the Holy Grail, for a terrible, revisionist 5.1 mix on the new DVDs/Blu Rays, and I'm mad about it. No attempt to match the original performance either.
Also lots of overeager remixing and replacing of elements.
Hey, remember when the original mixes of Monty Python and the Holy Grail went too nuts with the sound mixing and effects, and nobody laughed until they removed literally everything?
Because they don't seem to have remembered that when someone decided to rerecord things so they could have a 5.1 mix.
