Three big Cartoon Network movies on one DVD disc: "Good Wilt Hunting" (Foster's), "Where's Lazlo?" and "The Big Field Trip" (Gym Partner)!

This was an exploration as a potential product. Q1: Does three movies on one disc equal "value" or does it imply less-than spectacular fare? Q2: Could one earn three times as much money with three separate DVDs, or would the popular one (Foster's) sell relegating the others to glut retail shelves?

Then there was the creative explorations like these visual as well as naming the darned thing as the DVD had the possibility of being the first in a line.

I like that ones that down played character details including pseudo Saul Bass silhouettes. However, it is probably too sophisticated a concept for the kids' video shelves.

Concept G features Fred Fredburger, who is a "Billy and Mandy" character, that absolutely does not appear in any of the contained movies. The bonus feature for this concept was to have the short-attention spanned Fred do audio comentary for the three movies. Yeah, this was at a time when the network was too much in love with the little, pistachio-colored, elephant guy.

Well, the DVD didn't go past the conceptual stages. "Good Wilt Hunting," however, was pressed as it's own DVD movie, although I don't know where one would get a copy. It's not on Amazon.
