With the exception of New Jack City I'll probably purchase all titles mentioned.

WOOT!

New Jack City SE!!!!

WOOT!

Wow how come every urban classic these days comes with a "What 50 Cent Thinks of Blah Blah Blah Scene" or whatever. The Scarface one was an utter joke.

Soon they'll be making "Supa Blang Son" Commentaries with all the rappers just saying "Whoa!" and "Oh, shit son u see dat?" over these films.

I'll buy the King Kong SE for sure, but I hope for more/better extras.

Wizard of Oz is long overdue in getting out of a snapper.

I will douple dip on Wizard, and pick up King Kong and Ben Hur. No interest in New Jack City or the other one.

Very happy for Outsiders and King Kong.

Will probably pick up Wizard of Oz also as I was thinking about getting this recently.

Why complain, the Appendices on the LOTR EE's are as good as the films themselves. I suspect these will be fantastic. Having PJ lead you through Kong's history will be a lot of fun.

Kinda pissed about Ben Hur and the Wizard of Oz. During a Warner HTF chat someone asked about those and a Warner rep said no chance of re-visiting Ben Hur and that Wizard of Oz was a good enough release. So I went out and bought both of them.

I looked at the most recent Warner HTF chat from March 2004 and don't see anything like that. Wizard of Oz isn't even mentioned. For Ben-Hur, this is all that's said:

"[GeorgeKlinesmith] Any info on the special features of Ben-Hur?

[warnerbros] There are plenty of special features on our current BEN-HUR DVD."

Hardly the same as saying that there's no chance of a revisit.

This is the one I've been looking forward to as well. I was also under the assumption that it would be a director's cut and that there would be a group commentary.

I'd be interested in Ben-Hur and Wizard of Oz SE's. Since I already have the current version of both, I'd see how much of an improvement in terms of transfer and/or extras before considering an actual upgrade.

Looks like the only thing new on the Ben Hur set is the original film, which might be worth it if they do a restoration for it. And the Heston movie looks to finally get spread across 2 discs instead of on a DVD-18! Yay! Down with DVD-18!

Already pleased with current Wizard of Oz release, so won't double-dip unless there are a lot more features than those listed (especially a commentary).

Will sell current Ben-Hur DVD to get this one.

Kong on DVD is a must-have, regardless of features. I'd grab it even if the movie itself was the only thing on the disc.

It was actually a misprint. That is the special feature for the Ben-Hur DVD
