Digital Bits has interesting details on a few more upcoming DVDs for you today. With next year being Miramax's 25th anniversary, the company has plans to re-release The English Patient as an anamorphic widescreen special edition. The title is tentatively set for spring release.

More Paramount news today... as you may know, Star Trek V: The Final Frontier and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country are both being prepped for release as 2-disc Collector's Editions. These will both contain the same, previously released cuts as before, but with additional special edition materials. Both will obviously be anamorphic (Star Trek VI was previously letterboxed widescreen only on DVD). Star Trek V will be released before the year is out, with Star Trek VI following in 2004.

Finally, Universal has confirmed the information we posted yesterday about the Monty Python's The Meaning of Life: Special Edition DVD. So here's another interesting tidbit for you. We've actually been hearing rumors about this for a while now, but we've started to get confirmation from industry sources on it. Word is, a more elaborate DVD version of Scarface is on the way for release in November.

Stay tuned...
