Setting Sail for Treasure Planet

Going to my parents at Christmas, I managed to pick up a disc I left there last year. It was a promotional disc given away with a UK magazine called "Widescreen Review" and it features a 20 minute Treasure Planet documentary called "Setting Sail for Treasure Planet"

It looks like the typical TV Special. However it's notable for including lots of all new content (little - if any - if on the current Treasure Planet disc) and includes lots of input from the voice artists (apart from Emma Thompson who is only shown as a photo when first mentioned).

The disc will now stay inside my UK Treasure Planet Gift Set :up:

I've had a look for this on IMDB and it's not listed. Did this get shown on American TV?

I bet that disc will be worth alot someday. Seeing as "Treasure Planet" will probably never get a re-release with better special features.

We have a magazine here called Widescreen Review also, but I don't know if they come with DVDs or not. They have a website, www.widescreenreview.com but it says nothing about free DVDs. :(

I thought that I read somewhere that it would be released in a 2-disk set in the future?? :?

Maybe I am mistaken. :P

This is a UK magazine. Apparently it had (it only lasted a few issues) anything to do with the American Widescreen Review.
