Sounds really good. So all those features that you've listed have never since been released? I look forward to hearing the BANNED commentaries, why were they considered 'unacceptable', do you know?

I belive the problem was that the people on the commentaries speak their minds and don't hold back negitive comments. Like the screenwriter of From Russia With Love calling Ian Fleming a "Snob", or Director Terance Young recalling Chris Blackwell's Pot Smoking habbits. The MGM commentaries are just to NICE, and hold back any real objective comments. I belive that everyone should hear the originals, as that is the true history of the film as told by the people who made them. As a student of film history, I belive this information is priceless, and must be preserved for all time.
