: I don't think Austin's talking about those original DVD's, besides, there aren't that many instances where the originals have been upgraded to Special Editions.
: I think he's referring to the trend to release new titles with few extras, only to release a Special Edition later in the year. (Or as I pointed out, an Ultimate Edition after that.)
Are you talking about The Mummy? That movie originally came out on DVD 2 years ago, when DVD's were just starting to gain in popularity. The Ultimate Edition was released because 'extras' became a major factor in what the people wanted in a DVD, which was not the case 2 years ago.
