if its the same released over here, its kind of depressing, more of the same filler, although the 2 hour documentary is exciting!!!

[Luke]

Actually, it doesn't sound like filler at all. The documentary on Disc 2 is over 2 hours. There's twenty minutes of deleted/altered scenes. Audio commentary. And pretty much everything on the last DVD. What more could you want? Oh yeah, music. And there are several music videos.

And this is what we posted, oh 8 months ago here:

They're naturally listed in Upcoming Special Editions:

But at least the review from that link was useful:

I don't think the US will get the Garath Gates music video, being as the French and Australian sets didn't. Looks like it will be a UK only supplement. (Garath sang on the closing credits only on the UK release).

I would really, really, REALLY like one of these Special Editions to have an Academy Award reaction page. I mean, Lilo & Stitch WAS nominated in 2002 for Best Animated Feature. I would like to see reactions from director Chris Sanders and what the nomination meant to him or something... .

[Disneykid]

Well, in the case of Lilo, a lack of reaction stuff is to be expected because the bonus material was created during the film's production and was supposed to come out along side the 1-disc (back in December of 2002, which was before the Oscars). Perhaps they'll mention it in the commentary track, though.

[Disney-Fan]

This one is definitely on my to-buy list! I don't have the original version yet, so this should be a real treat. The only feature I've seen out of the already existing ones is the "Stitch in Time" feature.
The Documentary sounds great! 2 hours of fun and interesting details. Hurray!!!

[Andy]

Wow those bonus features are great!!
Although im still unsure on what to do....im a huge fan of L&S but i already have it on the 1 disc dvd. Im not sure wether to buy this one as well or save my money and get another Disney film.......

A friend of mine just returned from a vacation in Mexico, and brought back the Latin American version of the Special Edition. I've been watching it all weekend, and I just wanted to say, even if we only get the same special features on the US edition, it'll be fantastic.

Some highlights:

Chris and Dean's commentary track. (Clark Spencer, the producer, who's oddly uncredited, also provides commentary.) Even though I'm a fanatic about the movie, I was unfamiliar with the extensive changes they describe in audience testing and revising the movie.

A *very* long documentary on the creation of Lilo & Stitch. One "footnote" to the discussion is a complete reproduction of Chris's original pitch for the movie, done in the form of a children's book. The story is quite different, and as they emphasize in the commentary, Stitch was quite a bit nastier in the original conception.

Several additional deleted scenes, including *two* versions of the 747 hijacking, Jumba and Stitch's *original* battle in Lilo's house, and a very sad scene about how Pudge the fish dies (can see why they deleted that one!!).

There is some filler, for example, a "music video" that for a mediocre kids song that seems to consist of clips from the movie. And as stated above, it really appears that the bulk of the material was recorded back in 2002. Still, I was not disappointed, and I predict you won't be either!
