In certain aspects of life, I suppose you're right.  I sometimes see dissatisfaction as a good thing, though -- it's a trait that, consequently, leads to the strive for perfection.  Or, as Tom Keller in the Ratatouille featurette puts it, the strive for the quest for perfection.

In this case, I just thought it was a disservice to the makers and fans alike that these excellent films didn't get the making-of showcasings they deserved. 

I read about that a while ago.  I dug out a VHS tape I had of the old version of Knick Knack, and I can sort of see why they chose to tone it down for current subsequent versions.  She was rather large, and considering that Finding Nemo is meant to appeal to the kids..... And then they likely just decided to go with the higher-res quality of the censored version for the Shorts Collection.

I suspected as much, hence the mini-rant I partook in.  It's a bit infuriating to know that they're clearly on the way, and that I'll likely be sucking up for the cost for the double-dip when it happens.  But, the marketing machine must roll on..... and roll on it will.

Ryu, did you check out CARS on Blu-ray yet?  Your opinion?

No, it was complained to me that I make it difficult to shop for Christmas presents because I buy everything I want as they release, so I stripped my November and December purchases down vastly.

Speaking of Christmas, here's Best Buy's Black Friday ad:  http://70.87.105.162/~sctest/bball.pdf

Yeah, striving for perfection is great until you realize you can never actually be happy because there's no such thing as perfection.  There's always something or someone better.

Holy crap!  Is anyone else going to brave their local Best Buy for something?  I might for that 500 Gig portable hard drive.

You could do that store pick-up thing and buy it online and pick it up later in the day (or however long they hold it) when it is less crazy.
