There were a lot of commentaries on Dodgeball. There were like three hidden audio commentaries. I wouldn't be surprised if they are alternated or edited...

Speaking of which, the commentary seems to be different on the Unrated Talladega Nights to the Theatrical. The Theatrical seems to have a "25 Years Later" Track, while the Unrated has a different track with one of the actors and Adam McKay. This is similar to the Anchorman track: on the Unrated they swear for the first 10 or 15 minutes, while on the rated they talk about their day and pretend they didn't know they were rolling. As far as I know from the beginning 10 minutes on the tracks are the same. Kind of a rip-off.

To correct some of my previous suggestions: Ghostbusters only loses a the "live" angle, which puts the commentators on the screen. The Double Feature just has the audio and not this angle, and the Terminator DVD, I mean the features from the UE are not carried to the EE. The "Extreme Edition" is the currently available version.

Though I don't have the time right now to list all the features missing, here are some more titles:

Criterions That Don't Have Carry Overs to Other Studios (Can't Remember All at the Moment)
"This Is Spinal Tap"
"The Man Who Fell to Earth"
"Robocop"
"The Silence of the Lambs"
"Dazed and Confused"

Others:
"Grease" Rockin' Rydell Edition (1998 featurette)
"The Iron Giant" SE (making of doc; music video)
"2001: A Space Odyssey" Digitally Remastered Edition (Arthur C. Clarke featurette; different trailer; "2010" trailer)
"Almost Famous" Untitled Edition (HBO Making-of Doc)
"Billy Madison" SE (trailer)
"Crumb" SE (trailer)
"The Wedding Singer" Totally Awesome Edition
"The Sixth Sense" 2-disc Edition


more to come...

Here's some more (I can remember on the fly):

"Field of Dreams" Anniversay Edition (Making-of Documentary)
"Natural Born Killers" Director's Cut (clip from Charlie Rose interview with Oliver Stone; original theatrical trailer)
"Cube" Signature Edition (don't remember at the moment)
"Jaws" 30th Anniversary Edition (theatrical trailers)
"Not Another Teen Movie" Director's Cut (*lots* of special features)
"Memento" SE (interviews)
"American Psycho" Killer Collector's Edition (interviews)
"Manhunter" Divimax Director's Cut (featurettes: "Inside Manhunter" "The Manhunter Look")

Oh, a few others:

"Blazing Saddles" Anniversary Edition (production notes)
"Superman" 4-Disc Collector's Edition (production notes)
"The Blues Brothers" 25th Anniversary Edition (production notes)

Like Superbits, I am not going to list unrated/rated changes. I think that everyone knows that these different releases will have different features.

I don't think I'm being too lazy here, as this list will possibly be incredibly large, and I need to draw some lines.

Does that make sense?

I agree. I'd add Criterion's to that list of exceptions.

Thanks, I was hoping for another vote there.

I'm thinking that this is mainly a thread for people that want everything available for a certain title. And if you do, you already know that you need any Criterion, Superbit, and unrated/rated combo.

Maybe I could put a note in the title listing indicating something like, "the Criterion also has different documentary." Or "the Superbit also has a different trailer collection." But I'd rather not go out of our way to add those, as almost every Criterion will have at least one different tidbit than its regular release(s).

All additions added up to this post. PatD and everyone else, thanks for the additions!

Alright, although I am saying the Unrated Talladega Nights has an entirely different (not just "unrated") audio commentary, with entirely different participants.

But if you are deleting this, then you should delete Dodgeball too. That's the same thing.

Fair enough. I'll make sure they're both in the list.

But in general, I think there isn't much need for me to list them, since rated/unrated combos will always have different features (at least commentary) I imagine.

The criterion laserdisc contains excerpts from the documentary called Exhausted. The Wonderland 2nd disc has Wadd: The Life and Times of John C Holmes, which was produced in 1998. I also believe the Criterion laserdisc commentary was different than the first single dvd release of the film.

Does any one have more specific information on some of these entries? What are the shorts missing from the Toy Story DVDs? Also what are the missing featurettes on the King Kong Extended Edition?

Updated all three for you. DVDcompare.net has all the info usually.

Awesome. Thanks a lot. That's a surprisingly large amount of material missing on Toy Story 1.

I don't know if you want to keep track of anime releases as well. Most anime double dips are simply repackages and repricings but there are a few exceptions. Here's some off the top of my head.

Neon Genesis Evangelion Platinum Edition - character profiles and the french and spanish dubs from the original release.

"Digitally Remastered" Dragonball Z Season 1 boxset - the spanish dub from the Ultimate Uncut Special Edition DVDs.

(It's also missing about twenty percent of the picture but that's a discussion for another thread.)

Ranma 1/2 OVA re-release - music videos and textless intro

Nearly all ADV thinpak boxsets have all of their extras removed from the original releases. The exceptions are:
Noir
Full Metal Panic
Rahxephon
Blue Seed
Rune Soldier
Slayers Movies

Wasn't there a change in the ending of A Christmas Story in the new 2 discer?

Added a few more.

Saving Private Ryan 60th Ann. Ed. is missing the "Into The Breach" featurette, A Message From Steven Spielberg, and 2 trailers from the Limited Ed.

Rear Window (as part of the Alfread Hitchcock Masterpiece Collection) is missing the DVD-ROM "script to screen" feature.

Thanks! Added those, and a few more.

TRC, thank you much, but for now, I want to hold off on anime, maybe that should be a separate thread for an anime expert.

Added a few more.

Beyond the Mat:Ringside Edition did not carryover....(from Widescreen Collector's Edition)
Commentary with Director Barry W Blaustein
Selected Scene Commentaries
-Mick Foley on "My Life in Wrestling"
-Mick Foley on "The Royal Rumble"

Thanks Jason, added.

The current edition of Rock N Roll Highschool is missing the insert from the old version.

The current edition of Rock N Roll Highschool is missing the insert from the old version.

Thanks, there are hundreds of instances of this. I don't think I'll be able to list them all. I listed one or two earlier only because I happened to own both versions and was comparing all the features. If they're missing an insert with substantial information I'll list it, but not just a chapter listing.

Bumping this hoping to get some more data.

Added Fantastic Planet & Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

Added The Secret of NIMH: Family Fun Edition, and Who's Afraid of Virginia Wollf SE.
