Which Prison Break bonus-dvd will you get?
Best Buy's bonus DVD contains all 26 two-minute episodes from the Mobisodes Series "Prison Break: Proof Of Innocence". This exclusive bonus disc is bundled with select copies of the Prison Break Season One DVD Box Set only at Best Buy.
Target's bonus DVD contains a 30 minute Behind-The-Walls Featurette and more. Not sure what they mean by "more". This exclusive bonus disc is bundled with select copies of the Prison Break Season One DVD Box Set only at Target.

Best Buy seems to have the cheapest price, so I may just go that route, depending if I can get one with the bonus disc (I wouldn't be able to go until later in the week).

Personally, I think people should buy it from anywhere other than Best Buy and Target. Seriously, as a fan of bonus features, I'm getting sick of being told that if I want the "complete" release I have to buy multiple copies or illegally download the exclusive version that I didn't purchase.

I was planning on picking mine up at best buy anyway... but I agree with 'MovieExchange' in the way that it sucks that there is no way for a fan to get everything related to a series without buying several copies, and having to choose what special features they want most...

I didn't think this would happen with Prison Break. I can't wait to see what they do with Lost s2...

That "Behind the Walls" documentary should have been on the Season 1 extras by default, not as a "bonus disc" from one particular Retailer in the USA (many fans don't even live in the USA).
After reading this thread now I finally know why "Behind the Walls" wasn't announced as part of the DVD package months ago and that reasoning is total garbage in my view.
I'm very angry about that.
I'm not buying Prison Break at all for that reason until the price lowers dramatically by 2/3rds or so.

That was in reference to MovieExchange's comment about the hoops the retailers/studios are making fans jump through to get a "complete" set of this DVD (and others).
But you knew that because I quoted his text, right?

Could somebody who has seen them please give a description of the "mobisodes" that are included on the Best Buy bonus disc? How much do they tie in with the actual series?

Got my copy from Wal Mart but took it back when I realized that it was widescreen and it seems they haven't come out with one in full so I probably wont buy it again.

I went with the Best Buy bonus disc simply because I got them to price match Meijer's price of $26.99. I was shocked I got this to work as I live in Colorado and Meijer is really a Michigan/Ohio thing.
These bonus discs at stores never lure me anyways, they usually consist of junk. What lures me is price.

ravma479, I bought both (one from Target and one from Best Buy) and they are indeed the same. I submitted the news to dvdfanboy.com and tvshowsondvd.com. I would watch those two sites within the next few days for some news.

Oh well, if you don't want to watch it like it's supposed to be watched, that's your problem.
