The "main" version has a not so great aspect ratio. The alt is better, but the audio track timing is skewed a bit more.
Have at them.
@davesdogmaggie so weird... the main copy looks like it both has more of the frame in vertical and horizontal dimensions and they stretched it horizontally really badly. what are people even ripping from lol

@davesdogmaggie the tubi version looks like it's the stretched out 'main' one right #monsterdon
@jonny yes. The other is from archive.
@davesdogmaggie i'm grabbing a third encode just to compare lol. someone must have just made a clean encode of the bluray (or else the bluray itself is stretched?)

@ryan @davesdogmaggie hahaha that's amazing. i found a scene release from bluray and am importing that to @monsterdon - the archive.org one at least looks better than the tubi version, so i'll swap out my backup copy for that one, but the sound is still sorta shit so i'm gonna see if this scene release is any better #monsterdon
@jonny @davesdogmaggie one other thing to look out for is that I think the international version (88 minutes) on the retromedia bluray is 720p only with 1.33:1 AR (what I'm using for my stream), the "CBS Late Movie" version (72 minutes) is 1080p with 1.66:1 AR
@jonny That’s too much effort for a #Monsterdon quality movie.
