I also have the boxed set of "Masada" and I love it, although even that seems to be missing something (I remember a topless scene by Barbara Carrera in the European movie theatre version which is sadly missing in the U.S. VCR box set I have). I stand corrected on the AD VHS version, but the DVD is still not out, if I'm not wrong. I don't think the shorter version that was out was edited due to "obscenity" but just to shorten the Roman stuff and have more of the christian/apostle elements in the story for the religious video market.
BTW, FOTRE is out on DVD in Europe, if you have a multiregional DVD player, which I recommend anyway, it's no problem, the German DVD for example includes the German dubbed version as well as the original English (and is longer than any other version ever released before, Omar Sharif's role is bigger, for example).
Also, I have the DVD of the Polish Quo Vadis and it has English subtitles. I ordered it a while ago from a Polish movie importer in Canada. I remember it took forever to get here (U.S.), but it sure is a neat film. I will search a little and try to find you a link. And yes, I noticed the horse trappings, and Vinicius' segmentata early in the film sure looks nice, too.
