In mid-2003 Canadian Customers reported seeing BTTF Boxed Sets with Green "REMASTERED" stickers appeared in stores like Future Shop & HMV. Initially it seems these sets are only available in Canada, and only in select retailers.
As the year wore on, several canadian e-tailers were shipping corrected discs (including playusa.com, which seems to be a reliable source-- as are many futureshop locations). These Canadian editions feature bilingual packaging and are only available from Canadian sellers.
Despite claims from Universal that the Barcode would be different, or V2 would be on the packaging, the only difference between the original sets and the remastered ones found in Canada is this greem sticker. Again the only way to tell the old widescreen box set from the CORRECTED Canadian remastered box set is the Green sticker with the words Widescreen "remastered" on the front of the box set.
But, as of March 2004, these green stickered discs have not been reported in the US, nor any other remastered markings on packages, nor have any US online retailers offered them for sale.
So for now, and for the foreseeable future, the only reliable way to get the corrected version is to return the discs to Universal via mail, or buy the Canadian edition.
