Different film order?

At first i was shocked to read that only the first was good, but then I realized they were referring to Kar-Wai's. In my DVD Antonioni comes first, then Soderbergh, and finally Kar-Wai. Why would they change the order?

I understand that the Antonioni segment played first in the Italian theatrical release, but that the order was reversed elsewhere. I suppose Antonioni was considered of most interest to Italians, while elsewhere there was reluctance to open with the weakest of the three.

Yesterday it was on Belgian television, and Antonioni came first (sixties feeling), then Soderbergh (sixties music), and finally Wong Kar-Wai (great Gong Li).

I have seen a version in Hong Kong with Soderberg, then WKW and Antonioni, on the Japanese dvd, WKW cmae first, then Soderberg and Antonioni.
