The DVD will be released on November 6th. 
Bill - Thatās right. Plus, theyāll be including Andre! YES!
Awesome. So they should include Andre. Now if only we could get them to put their commercials for Listerine and such on there, but I wouldnāt expect that. 
Canāt wait till this is released is my country.
How do you know Andre will be included?
Andre will be included because, to date, Pixar has only made 13 short films (including Andre), and there are 13 included on the disc.
Iām excited for this! Even though I already own most of these on other DVDs, it will be nice having them all in one place. (At one time I even considered trying to rip all the DVDs I have and put all the shorts onto one disc.)
I wonder what kind of bonus features will be included. Upcoming Pixar mentions a 30-45 minute documentary, but I hope that isnāt all. Iād really like there to be a commentary for all the shorts (particularly Andre, Tin Toy, Luxo Jr., Redās Dream, Geriās Game, One Man Band, Jack Jack Attack, and Mater and the Ghostlight, since these do not currently have commentary tracks). I would also really like a selection of commercials Pixar has made (maybe as easter eggs?). I also think it would be really cool if each short had is own little mini-feature, kind of like the Bud Luckey piece for Boundinā. Oh, and maybe a feature on some short film ideas that were never made (if there are any). And maybe if weāre really lucky, there will be an all-new short film created just for the DVD!
Anyway, Iāll be happy with it no matter what. November 6th will truly be a great day (now for more reasons than one)!
LOL - been there done that!
Heh-heh. I considered doing that as well. If only for the convenience of having them all on the same DVD.
Hey does anyone know the special features on the disc and how many discs there will be.
I suspect 1 disc, and i hope theres many bonus features besides the making of thing.
martin - Well, I do know that thereās a 30 to 40 minute āmaking ofā for the Pixar shorts. Thatāll be cool. Otherwise, weāll have to wait for more info.
my online store has the pixar shorts dvd up for pre-order
the BlueRay is R440 (about $63) and is expected 8 october
the dvd is R90 (about $13) and is expected 12 october
both are region 2 discs for PAL systems

~~=oP
ahh the list! Very cool. That will give me a chance to see some of the early Pixar shorts i havent seen yet.
A reader of my blog called Guido just sent me screenshots of the menus for the DVD.
Blogger isnāt too fond of hotlinking of images so I wonāt put them up here but you can view them over at my blog. Sorry for this. I feel itās almost like blogspam 
Thanks for posting that, bawpcwpn. I never knew that there were four Sesame Street /Pixar shorts, I thought there were only two. I hope that EzyDVD has afree gift or something, when you pre-order for November 14ā¦
I havenāt seen any new threads on Pixar Short Films Collection DVD yetā¦
I havenāt browsed though it yet, the menus are really pretty though and Iām glad they included commentary and a nice documentary on Pixar short films! EDIT: The ability to play all the shorts back-to-back makes good background video for a small party too. Show off your Pixar love to your friends lol.
So what do you all think?
I love the Pixar Short Films Collection DVD. Itās interesting to see how Pixar has improved over the years and they are very funny 
I havenāt seen the bonus feature yet but Iām planning to do it tomorrow or tonight. But still itās a very nice DVD. Something for a Pixar-fan
Here is the German DVD Cover (I thought to share them with you):
Oh man, this is totally going on my Christmas list 
I was going to buy it for 5 bucks off my friend, but now I saw that offer at the Disney store- if you buy Ratatouille and Pixar Shorts, you get a pin set. Now I need to find that DVD reciept.
