Looks like Transformers: The Movie is being re-released on DVD just in time for its 20th anniversary. It's hard to believe that I first saw this movie in theatres over 20 years ago.

Cool things that this version of the DVD has include:

• 16 x 9 Widescreen format - The previously released DVD does not have this; this is the first time the movie has been released in that format since appearing in theaters.

• The "Autobox Matrixof Knowledge Presentation" - A special feautre of the movie that will display trivia and facts about the movie and transformers in general while the movie plays.

• Multiple audio commentaries, including the writers (Nelson Shin and Flint Dille), voice actress Sue Blu (Arcee), and a fan commentary.

• Additional content:
  • Original episode of "Scramble City" from Japan

  • Original commercials for the toy line and movie

  • Extra test/alternative/deleted footage from the movie
