What where the Sony blu rays like just the dvd features on the blu ray?
You can find out the full details here:

http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/4184/muppet_space.html

http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/4183/muppet_manhattan.html

Having not really seen the DVD (even though it is a blu-ray/DVD combo pack) I'm not really sure but Manhattan had some pointless Muppetisms (short footage of the muppets doing something/saying a few lines) which weren't really related to the movie at all (including one of Pepe who didn't exist at the time), and there was an interview with Jim.

Space had some outtakes, 'Shining Star' music video and just some trailers for the film.

Yes just as I though they but all the features from the DVD's to blu ray. They could have at least tried to get Frank Oz for a Comentary for Manhaten but who is spliting hairs

I'd love to know that too, or even talk about it! But didnt you know? These threads are strictly for discussing the horribleness (is that a word? Lol) of blu-ray. :frown:
Blu rays are incredible, but they are for fans of blu ray/hdtv. There was an ocean of difference between the move from vhs to dvd, but not as big a notice to me on a lot of films from dvd to blu ray. I think the discussion is just revolving around how Disney went OUT of their way to thumb their nose at their huge dvd fanbase.

The problem is the recession. I don't have the money to buy a Blu Ray player right now, even a cheap one. Especially when my DVD player works just fine. Though heck I don't even feel comfortable buying a new DVD right now, lol. I have priorities to think about. Again the country is in the middle of a recession and everyone seems to know it except the companies.

Yep. Again, can someone explain how it would cost Disney extra money to have put all the blu ray features on the dvd? Or is this just them being jerks?
