November's Special Edition DVD's are pan-and-scan only

[anathema]

Which leaves two questions...

- are they planning releases in any other countries?
- will MCC be the extended version or the theatrical?

 

[Beauregard]

Yey! Great news!!!

*dances*

Great to hear about the widescreen availability, but why isn't MTM in this set? Because you can get the previous version of the DVD for $5 at Wal-Mart, or what? Anyone?

MTM was never owned by Muppets Holding Company. Sony owns MTM, along with MFS.

Hooray! I'm thrilled about this. I actually went to Best Buy and another store yesterday on the off chance that they might still have the other dvds. No luck. I'm so glad they will be released widescreen--now I'll actually buy them.

 

[MuppetDanny]

Cruse you Disney!!!

I take that back, sorry Disney

I'm assuming you mean including "When Love Is Gone".
