• Isolated Score Track
• Audio Commentary with Filmmakers Randal Kleiser, Douglas Day Stewart, and Brooke Shields
• Audio Commentary with Filmmakers Randal Kleiser and Christopher Atkins
• An Adventure in Filmmaking: The Making of The Blue Lagoon

They're also working on retaining previous extras for their upcoming Christine release.

So it appears they just ported over the original features from the DVD. It's better than not having them at all.

From what I understood, in the past, it sounded like Sony had a policy to not license out previous extras. Sounds like they might have reconsidered given these new releases have the extras included.

Yeah it's definitely a good thing. That being said it looks like their policy of not allowing new extras still stands so we prob. won't be seeing any Sony titles from Scream any time soon unfortunately.

So Cliff, everyone is asking about Motel Hell but what about Foxy Brown or a Pam Grier Collection or any other blaxploitation flicks for that matter? MGM owns a lot of the good ones. Any chance Shout has any interest in any of those? I would be all over a blaxploitation line!
