Ah, but don't you have all these already?

I, for one, am not interested in bare-bones DVDs. Actually, I'm not even interested in most of those movies, lol. Other than Honey I Shrunk the Kids and The Rocketeer, it's pure cheese (and mostly 90's cheese at that, the absolute worst kind, lol).

I'd say 2-disc sets are possible for Honey, I Shrunk the Kids and The Rocketeer, but even then it's only a distant possibility (unfortunately).

MAD? I'd be jumping for joy, going out and dancing in the streets, and swinging off a lamppost if they announce a 2-disc special edition for The Rocketeer! :D

<i>Honey, I Shrunk the Kids</i> is quite clearly destined to be revisited. I can even imagine <i>The Rocketeer</i>, <i>The Mighty Ducks</i>, and <i>Cool Runnings</i> getting upgraded as well. As Disney's back catalogue shrinks down to next-to-nothing, re-releases remain an integral part of their schedule. People are more likely to buy a movie that's looking them in the face on a Tuesday shop visit or in a weekly circular than they are by tracking down a 5-year-old release that many stores might not even have in stock. It's an added bonus that all of these DVDs left plenty of room for improvement. Even simply providing 16x9 enhancement would be sufficient to get plenty of people who like these movies enough to own to buy them again for better treatment.

That said, obviously none of these are set in stone, but if movies like The Wonderful World of Disney's <i>Annie</i> and <i>Cinderella</i> are getting re-released, most of the theatrically-released live action stuff from the past 20 years seems like fair game as well.
