Goonies Outtakes

[Zbu Manowar]

The main reason putting deleted scenes back into the movie is probably because the film elements don't match: meaning that you could be staring at a clean and flawless picture one minute, then a grainy dupe the next. Also, seamless branching isn't a standardized art, meaning each authorizing house has to do it a different way which means that it could either be great or a few DVD players couldn't handle it.

Plus it does take time and add money to the whole process. It's sad, really: most companies are putting out rarer stuff nowadays to cash in on the DVD craze but don't like putting too much money into it initially for extras like commentaries, much less seamless branching.
