This
three disc “collector’s edition” brings us little
more than the collection released in 2003, actually
it brings us less at it does not include the
two-hour “making of” documentary the elder release
had. What is disappointing is the movies, filmed

Iron
Man’s standout screen appearance may very well be

great Los Angeles resident for his too brief cameo.
