This disc is positively brimming with extras. Which is a
great thing considering the new price point introduced.
Feature: Building A Better Mummy. This is the official making of
documentary on how this movie was made. At around 50 minutes in length it
is a very informative look at how the movie was made.
Interactive Featurette: Visual Effects Formation. This is an
interactive feature on four scenes that VFX supervisor John Berton walks
you through to show how this effects were created.
Audio Commentary: Director & Editor. This is a commentary
featuring Stephen Sommers (Director) and Bob Duscay (Editor). This is an
interesting commentary. Not the best available, but they do instill quite a
bit of info about the making of the movie.
Teaser Trailer: The original teaser trailer for the mummy is
included as well. It is framed at 1:85:1 with Dolby Digital 2.0 sound. The
teaser is excellent but sound flat and unexciting compared to the R1
version. The R1 version also includes the proper theatrical trailer as
well.
The other extras contain the following:
Egyptology 101
Deleted Scenes
Production Notes
Cast & Crew Notes
DVD ROM Material
Overall a very comprehensive extras package.
