An explanation would be long and kinda complicated, real surround sound is relatively new ( now yeah, relatively if you're 54 as I am .....)
An interesting article can be found @ Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surround_sound
If you don't want to read the stuff just scroll down a bit to the 'Surround sound specifications' and take look at the 'Standard speaker channels' rooster, you'll see that 'real surround' wasn't even available with stereo, you need more.
So you can't have real surround on older movies, even on the so called 'remastered' DVDs, can only be 'fake' surround....
Also to keep in mind: it's normal that the sound volume from the back speakers is not as high as from the others, they are mainly used as 'support' for sound effects that blast through the central-bass-side speakers. (not that I care much about surround, my hearing and my ears are as old as I am, thus kinda faulty, stereo is more then swell enough for me).
