For the people who said True Lies, I think I read that a sequel is in the works, so maybe you'll get an SE to coincide with its release?

As for Mrs. Doubtfire, I think the current edition of that DVD is OOP. I think it has lots of extras, but I'm not sure if it is an "SE" or not. (I could be wrong, but I don't think it is anamorphic?) I really want to buy it, but it seems to be unavailable at the moment...I'm hoping it gets rereleased sometime soon...

Thank you kindly, ChrisCook.
