Presented in either Dolby 5.1 EX or a flawless DTS 6.1 track, this is a disc that sets a new standard for positional audio. The sound brings this movie to life, and the opening action sequence is one audiophiles will bookmark. While the action sequences are the highlight with their powerful bass levels, it's foolish to discredit the ambient work elsewhere. There is hardly a moment where each speaker isn't producing some form of audio. 
When the disc initially loads, you're given two options. You can either pick good or evil, though the purpose is unknown. There are two extra trailers on the good side. The menus, chapter selections and features are exactly the same. In the end, all it does is make the transition from putting the disc in to watching the film take longer.
Aside from that, 24 separate deleted scenes run about 20-minutes total. There's an optional commentary track on each, though Ratner and some of his crew are loose with the information on these cuts. One of the few interesting notes is a scene where Beast snaps a foe's neck. It's less than a second, yet they felt the film would have earned an R rating with it included.
Also tossed into that batch are three separate endings. One involving Wolverine takes the series back to its beginnings, while another puts Beast in a more sensible post-war scenario. The third changes a character's fate with only minor impact.
The option menu for "World of Marvel" is nothing more than a fancy way of saying "trailers." The final two additional features are commentaries, one from Ratner and his writers, the other from three producers. While they offer some extra information, Ratner is more concerned with enjoying himself than providing any details. 
A single disc edition is standard at retailers, while special editions are store specific. Target is offering a sharp tin case with an original Stan Lee comic. Best Buy offers the same comic, but with far less flair. The cheap plastic case and fold out insert isn't worth double the asking price of the regular disc.

"Aside from that, 24 separate deleted scenes run about 20-minutes total."
Ah, so you ended up with the version with over 20 deleted scenes.
The one I got only has 10, and that's all there was supposed to be. However, apparently due to some kind of production error, some got out that have a bunch of extra deleted scenes that are not meant to be on this edition of the DVD.
And unfortunately there is no way to tell which version you are getting until you open it. I ended up with the 10 deleted scene version, which I am not upset about because that's what I was expecting.
There's supposed to be some kind of special edition DVD to be released later on with more extras, including these additional deleted scenes.
As far as disc content goes, the current Collector's Edition is supposed to be no different than the standard version. The only difference is supposed to be the comic book that it comes with and the outer box which holds the comic and the regular DVD case.
It's weird when a screw up like this happens.
