CARS on DVD
 

I picked up CARS on DVD the other day and I am extremely disappointed.

The film is great. One of my favorite Pixar films and one of the best movies I saw this year. My issue it the DVD release is only 1 disk that contains the film, deleted scenes, previews of upcoming releases, One Man Band short, a new Mater short, and a 15 minute "Inspiration for Cars" interview segment. And THAT IS IT! No commentary, no music videos, no segments on the technology or voices or NASCAR or NOTHING!

I suspect sometime in the future there will be one so they can make everyone repurchase the movie, but this is just ridiculous!

WTF DISNEY!???! :mad:

*shrug*

As the years have gone by, I've found myself less and less interested in DVD bonus material. As long as it's a good transfer, widescreen, and has decent sound, I tend to prefer that they keep the price-point lower and dispense with the extras that I never watch anyway. I don't need to pay an extra $5 to play a trivia game and listen to the sound editor describe the scene I'm watching.

Did you buy the regular or the package with the cars with it? Could that have more on it?

I didn't buy the special edition. But I did get a poster.

Gosh, they have almost everything for this movie. They even had a really cute little digital camera that I think hooks to your keychain? $20. Not too bad for a fun little gadget. I didn't get it though.

I should mention the price is suggested at $29.99.

I think certain retailers are adding bonus "stuff" to it. I think some have posters. I got a couple of flags and Lithographs at the Disney Store.

Yeah, if they're charging Special Edition prices for a bare-bones release, that's pretty lame. Although, aren't the features listed on the packaging?

Really? For the regular??? The bonus package at Best Buy was $29.

Aw, I remember when we used to collect the lithographs from the Disneystore. Alas, we don't go to the mall much. I do have a nice collection from years ago, though.

Flags?

I don't have it in front of me, but I belive it has the "And more.." :rolleyes:

Yeah, the Lith's are not that great. The only reason I got this at DisneyStore was because I was already pre-ordering Little Mermaid at the time and i WANTED those Litho's. Even though those were not very good shots. Grrr.!

Oh... that must have been the durable clamshell case and the full color front, spine and back labels
