One movie I am thinking of particularly is the extended cut of Dances With Wolves.

If I recall, Alexander (Final Cut) was split over two BDs, albeit two BD25s (of course it was Warner, and with one of their early vanilla DD soundtracks to boot, glad that's over). But ya, increased capacity is welcome if we can get those longer movies and 3D on there without sacrificing quality.
