We've all complained about it and we've all suggested possible improvements, but here's my complete spec list for the definitive edition of The Lion King on DVD. A lot of the material I'm going to list here is available on the current DVD but I'm going to list it anyway.

DISC ONE: THE MOVIE & COMMENTARIES

- 1:66.1 16x9 Anamorphic Widescreen
- Original Dolby Digital 5.1 mix
- New Disney Enhanced Home Theater Mix in DTS 5.1
- Disney Karoke Sing-A-Long Track in DD5.1
- Complete Isolated Score in DD5.1 and DTS5.1
- Audio Commentaries:
1) Original Laserdisc Commentary
2) All-New Retrospective Commentary w/Don Hahn, Rob Minkoff, & Roger Allers
3) New Commentary w/Complete Original Cast
4) New Commentary w/Julie Taymor on Adapting Lion King to the Stage
5) Isolated Score w/Commentary by Hans Zimmer, Lebo M., Tim Rice, and Elton John
- DVD Trailers: The Lion King 1 1/2 and The Lion King II: Simba's Pride SE
- Brother Bear Sneak Preview Featurette

DISC TWO: BONUS FEATURES
- 1994 Original Making-Of Doccumentary
- Deleted Scenes & Abandoned Concepts
- Widescreen vs. P&S Comparison
- Circle of Life Storyboard to Final Film Comparison
- Original Music Videos
- Original Trailers & TV Spots for Theatrical, IMAX & Video Releases
- Archive footage of Jeffery Katensberg getting down on his hands and knees and appologizing to the filmmakers after the movie's opening
- In Memory of Frank Wells -- brief featurette on the life and work of the man whom The Lion King is dedicated to, and discussion from the filmmakers on how the choice to dedicate it to him came about.
- Audio Sequel featurette (same as on current DVD)
- 3-D Virtual Production Art Gallaries, simmilar to Snow White & Beauty and the Beast DVDs
- Theatrical Posters & Print Campign Gallery
- Domestic & International CD Covers Gallery for all Lion King-related CDs
- Pride Rock on Stage: the stage-show material from the real DVD + more

I thought they didn't have a widescreen transfer for the Transformers movie anymore :?

From what I have heard, the UK release is the full-frame matted - so you loose information from the sides and top and bottom.

Anyhow - to keep on topic

The Brady Bunch Movie: Special Collector's Edition (As Paramount somwhat reduntantly calls their "Special Editions")

Anamorphic widescreen presentation of the film

Commentary One by Director Betty Thomas with actors Shelly Long and Gary Cole
Commentary Two by Brady Bunch Creator Sherwood Schwartz

Documentary "America's Favorite Extended Family" looking at the history of the Brady Bunch - from Sit-Com (The Brady Bunch), to Cartoon (The Brady Kids), to variety (The Brady Bunch Hour), to Drama (The Bradys), and showing how all of these different portrayals were cleverly integrated and spoofed in the three Brady Bunch movies.

Featurette "A Comedy of the Ages" looking at life in the 70's (as portrayed in the original sit-com) and life in the 90's (as portrayed in the movies) and how this translated to the biting social satire in the movies.

Featurette "Being a Brady" Shelly Long and Cary Cole talk about how they approched playing Carol and Mike Brady.

Davy Jones "Girl" Music Video, Brady Bunch Kids "It's A Sunshine Day" Music Video.

Original Trailer(s)

Should fit onto a single disc. Sometimes it's the quality, not the quantity that matters.
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

Here's a completely new idea for an animated Disney Classic...a film depicting the journey and discoveries of Lewis & Clark (and Sacajawea). I just saw the IMAX presentation on Friday and it was fantastic...I kept thinking what an amazing Disney story this would make. Along the lines of a Pocahontas and American Legends presentation.

What about the TV movie and short-lived series "The Brady Brides"?

This I like!

Okay, my idea:

a look at the short-lived henson-disney merger


with:
-the complete "Muppets at WDW" special
-Muppetvision 3d theme park movie
-never-before-seen "Little Mermaid" pilot
footage, concept art etc. of unfinished muppet theme park projects
we're a little late, folks...goodnight!
