Jeez, and I just bought a copy of Treasure Island. Bah.

The Bonus Features it is Packed With sound pretty blah, though. A sing-along? Puh-leez! I can sing along with the movie thank you very much. I'm holding out for widescreen.

Of course you know, the only reason they're coming out with this is because you just bought it. ; )

I know, it's Disney's mission to taunt you with better versions of things just after you get the boring version.

Although, "better" might be debatable; a sing-along sounds pretty lame, unless they've got some sort of Amazing Never Before Seen Tim Curry Moment.

The Christmas Carol DVD gets on-the-set gags and similar funny things. I feel neglected in my nautical favouritism.

Totally unfair.

When those next POTC movies come out, people will remember how cool the age of sail was. It's our duty as nautical geeks to use movies created to showcase Johnny Depp as vehicles for our obsession.

Tall ships are pretty.

Indeed.
