You haven't mentioned the other extra on the Interstelbore disc, which is the ability to speed through that awful scene in the library at 20 times normal speed and make it marginally less dull than the theatrical version.

Yeah, nothing like watching a bunch of humans in monkey costumes eating and grooming each other and then one of them hits another with a stick. Excitement never ends. And it is a classic. Go figure.

Early hominids, not monkeys.
