Can anybody confirm? This must be a typo since I'm guessing they are just going to use the original Collateral Damage dvd and doesn't that one only have a commentary by Davis on it? Thanks for any info.
According to the back cover at DVD Empire, no Arnold commentary is listed.

Tequila Sunrise/Consipiracy Theory (both fullscreen)
Gumball Rally (Widescreen)/Cannonball Run (fullscreen)
are at my Sam's Club for under $9.

Sad that they're dropping the widescreen versions on some of these (Tequila/Theory) when they had both on the single editions, that means no sale for me.

Isn't it Cannonball Run II with Gumball Rally? If so, I believe it was only available in fullscreen previously.

Mea culpa, it was Cannonball Run II.

They really missed the boat not pairing Bloodsport with Kickboxer. That's a double feature if there ever was one. Showdown in Little Tokyo could have been paired with one of Dolph's B actioners that Warner has the rights to, like The Peacekeeper.

Looks like Warner has upped the ante with some up-coming Triple Feature discs. Lethal Weapon 1-3 Director's Cuts all on one disc for under $15 - that's an awesome deal provided they're not compressed to death or the fullscreen versions. Here's the link to the initial batch of upcoming TF releases:

I'm still trying to figure out why they chose Lethal Weapon for a Triple Feature DVD considering that there are 4 films in the franchise. Wouldn't it have been better to do 2 Double Feature releases instead? I don't personally care for Pt. 4 anyway, so it works for me, but in general it doesn't make much sense.

I agree. They would have made more $$$ had they done it with 2 DBL features instead. But triple features do sell better and they can make you buy part 4 seperately, so either way they win!
