From @Moshrom
The remix is very good. Contrary to M. Enois Duarte of High-def Digest's 'observations', there aren't any new Foley effects in it. Well, there is just one -
At 01:11:27 in the 5.1, there's now the sound of breaking glass which isn't present in the original mix. Here, the original mix has a small 'thump', which sounds like a bad edit. It's possible that the glass was added to conceal this, which would have been the easiest thing to do given the other sounds also occurring at the same time. Or perhaps it was a creative decision -- to use the glass to mark the introduction of the next scene, which it now does pretty effectively.
It's certainly a noticeable (loud) sound, but definitely not one anyone would ever notice unless switching back and forth between the two mixes repeatedly.
Other than that, the two mixes generally differ only in channel activity (of course) and fidelity. The new mix has a lot more low-end power, while the stereo mix is brighter, tinnier, and more '80s-sounding (but still an excellent mix itself). I imagine the main reason it was remixed at all was to allow for these improvements in fidelity.
Subtitles are synced from the sources mentioned above and tonemapped, additional SRTs from the WEB.
Chapter names from Criterion Blu-ray, positioned to the nearest I-frames / Scene changes.
Enjoy
