I have the version that has nothing but a trailer and a readable script. All sources seem to indicate that the 2001 version with an identical cover includes the Other Voices documentary (60 minutes), an interview with Cameron and Arnold (18 minutes), and 7 deleted scenes.

BestBuy claims this DVD has all of it:

I bought it and returned it, it doesn't have shit. It's the only version anyone seems to have available in store.

This version apparently came out in 2007, and it's more expensive everywhere so I imagine it has more stuff on it, but it's web only

I don't want to buy it and wind up with another stripped disc.

So can anyone confirm for me that the second link is actually the one with all the special features? It's driving me nuts.

I'm pretty sure that second one's just the same old crappy bare-bones release with a new cover. Not 100% sure, but I've seen that version around and I don't think it had any special features on it.

This one, with the holofoil cover and "Special Edition" across the top is the only one that I know of for sure that has all the special features, and it's been OOP for several years.

The High Def digest review of the Blu Ray release said that the SE had all the special features, then it said that a later release split the 1 hour doc into 4 15 minute segments. It doesn't really make it clear if all the other content is also carried over, but that is implied. Would that be the second link in the OP?

DVD Empire lets you look at the back of the box, which can be useful sometimes.

Looking at the back of that one, it doesn't list any special features, which probably means there aren't any. MAYBE they snuck the documentary on that disc and just didn't list it, that happens occasionally, but it looks like you're just going to get another movie-only release if you buy that.
