Here are the contents of the third disc:

The Added Scenes and Expanded Themes of Apocalypse Now Redux
This featurette, which lasts 7 minutes and 58 seconds, features comments from Francis Ford Coppola, Laurence Fishburne, Aurore Clement, Frederic Forrest, and Vittorio Storaro. These interviews were probably taken from 2001 when they were all promoting the new cut. They discuss the new footage, specifically Kilgore's new intro, the new Brando scenes, the French Plantation sequence (Coppola shares the same anecdote about discovering his dad's lost love theme as found in the commentary), and the tiger scene, and then share their own feelings about the new cut.

Destruction of the Kurtz Compound
The same 6 minute sequence from the original DVD release of the theatrical version. Basically just a montage of the Kurtz Compound blowing up. This features optional commentary by Coppola, also featured on the old disc.

1979 Theatrical Trailer
Lasts 3 minutes 52 seconds and is 16x9 enhanced. This was included on the old theatrical version DVD release.

2001 Theatrical Trailer
Lasts 2 minutes 31 seconds and is nonanamorphic. This was included on the old Redux DVD release.
