  • I remember the first DVDs extras where items such as “interactive menu” which always bugged me because surely a non interactive menu is just a picture of some buttons?

    Anyway, the extras got better and better over the years and the quality on some titles has been astounding.

    The Frighteners has a 4½ hour “making of” for example. The Alien Quadrilogy and Blade Runner are two more examples of amazing DVD extras as well.

    Sadly, it seems to be just the boutique labels putting in the work these days. It’s frustrating when studio releases list several intriguing sounding extras and then it turns out they only last five minutes each.
