The Don Bluth-directed, Steven Spielberg-produced An American Tail, a lighthearted animated look at immigrants, comes to DVD with a standard full-frame transfer. Closed-captioned English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1. Spanish and French soundtracks have been recorded in Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround, respectively. Spanish and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a singalong section for the film's famous song "Somewhere Out There" and a handful of interactive games to entertain children. While the disc offers nothing of interest for those who want to learn about the animation process, kids will enjoy the extras on this Universal release. The DVD was released the same day as three of the film's sequels, including the theatrically released An American Tail: Fievel Goes West.

Divine Secrets Of The Ya-Ya Sisterhood, a Southern soap-opera if ever there was one, comes to DVD and the for the most part, the results are very nice. Though the disc does contain a 5.1 Dolby Digital tracks in English, the auditory elements are the weak point of this title. Not that wide dynamic range would be expected with this type of film, but the lack of any significant surround material is somewhat disappointing. Granted, the dialogue is clear and distortion free, which is all that really can be asked for. It's the image which makes up for the standard soundtrack. The 2.35:1 anamorphic transfer (a cropped pan and scan version is also available separately) is stunning. Colors are well saturated, and overall detail is exceptional. There are no signs of grain or scratches, making this an image that comes very close to reference quality. Supplemental materials are fairly extensive here. For starters are two commentary tracks, one with director Callie Khouri, executive producer Lisa Stewart, producers Bonnie Bruckheimer and Hunt Lowry, editor Andrew Marcus and composer T-Bone Burnett (as one might expect, it becomes a bit difficult to figure out who is who) and the other with just Khouri and actress Ashley Judd. Though not much more than a fluff piece, a 14-minute featurette called "Unlocking the Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood" does have some interesting interviews mixed in with as many clips from the film, and there are some additional brief interviews in a different section entitled "Ya-Ya Sisterhood Scrapbook". Finally, along with a music video from Alison Kraus and the theatrical trailer are about 16 minutes of extra scenes that weren't used in the film, and are of varying video quality.

This family-friendly made-for-TV thriller has been given a streamlined presentation on DVD. Tower of Terror has been transferred to disc in its original full-frame aspect ratio of 1.33:1, and the audio is mastered in Dolby Digital Stereo. No additional bonus features have been included.
