There were only two commentaries made for Basic Instinct.

One was with director Paul Verhoeven and Jan De Bont.

The second was with Camille Paglia.

There is no "third" commentary unless you are thinking of the "descriptive video service" track from the original movie-only DVD. Paul Verhoeven never recorded a solo commentary and that the DVS track is not a commentary. Its a female voice-over artist describing the scenes audibly for the visually impaired.

In fact...

For the US:

Release 1: Artisan Home Entertainment branded DVD with DVS and trailer.

Release 2, 3, 4, $ 5: Artisan Home Entertainment branded SE DVDs with 2 commentaries, featurettes, and trailer. Available in rated ( Rel 4) and unrated (Rel 5)versions; first pressings in "ice block" case with ice pick pen (Rel 2&3).

Release 6: Lionsgate branded Ulimate Edition with just the director and Jan De Bont commentary, featurettes, trailer, and promo materials for Basic Instinct 2.

Release 7: Lionsate branded Blu-ray Disc with the 2 commentaries, featurettes, and trailer. Packaged in a regular BD keepcase.

You might be thinking that the the Blu-ray Disc is similar to Release 6 but in fact, its an HD version of Release 5.
