OVERALL: R1

For including the theatrical OAR version on disc two plus the DTS audio track. R2 Norway also is in OAR.

General notes about the aspect ratio: "Brother Bear" actually used two different aspect ratios on the big screen. The first 24 minutes featured 1.85:1, while the rest of the movie is 2.35:1. On DVD, the image doesn’t “shrink” from 1.85:1 to 2.35:1, instead, the former scenes come windowboxed, so when the 2.35:1 material starts, the image indeed expands the sides of the presentation. “Family friendly” 1.66:1 -version remains firmly 1.66:1 from start to finish, and it´s not the OAR.

CUTS:

• R1 Special Edition America- Buena Vista Home Entertainment - No cuts (85:01 NTSC).
• R2 Norway- Buena Vista Home Entertainment - No cuts
• R2 United Kingdom- Buena Vista Home Entertainment - No cuts.
