1- The Video Commentary is a silhouette MST2K style video using the Audio Commentary content. The film must be viewed in 4x3 to properly place the silhouettes but it relies on your player settings and is not an aspect ratio that can be selected via the disc. Those silhouettes are displayed via a subtitle track so you can select that track to display them (although in the incorrect position) when viewing a widescreen presentation.
2- This release also comes with a Bluray disc which is indexed here..
3- This feature is simply selected scenes from the film so while the way in which the content is accessed is only found in this feature, the actual content is present on every release.
4- For fans of this films there is a great article about the previous Laserdisc releases as well as DVD releases here.
5- Some release have a feature named "Blu-wizard" which allows you to select from the list of special features and then play all of the features you selected. While this does not add any content, some might see it as an attractive and value-added way to view the special feature content.
6- This release has a smaller selection of scenes, ten total running about 8 minutes in length as opposed to the complete set of 16 scenes about 12 minutes total. See footnote 7 for additional information.
7- The 35th Anniversary Bonus disc includes an extra deleted scene named "central Park Bums- Raw Takes" that the Ultimate Collection Bonus Bluray places in the Dailies section rather than the Scene Cemetery Section. When taking the Dailies section into account, the Ultimate Collection Bonus Bluray has a complete set of deleted scenes.
8- The Ultimate Collection comes with two Bonus Bluray Discs but all the features for this film appear on only one of them.
9- This exclusive bonus disc was only included with the Ghostbusters 1 and 2 35th Anniversary Steelbook release.
10- The 30th Anniversary box set will show Mastered in 4K on the back cover but the 35th Anniversary release does not. Both releases offer a disc that is completely different from the standalone Mastered in 4K Release indexed here. Note that the 35th Anniversary release is the one that offered a Steelbook release with an exclusive bonus disc which is indexed here but the movie discs were the same as the 30th anniversary release discs.
11- This release only includes a single theatrical trailer while others include multiple trailers and teasers.
12- This release includes exclusive stills in the Colorful Early NYC Concepts sub-section not found on other releases.
13- This feature is found in the Features section on this release.
14- This feature is found in the Special Effects sub-section of the Spook Central section on this release.

NOTES:
This release includes a bunch of exclusives (for both of the first two films) along with a nearly complete feature set. The only content directly related to the film that is missing is the Video Commentary (which is just silhouettes for the Audio Commentary, see footnote 1 above) and a few concept art stills (see footnote 12 above). It also lacks the features exclusive to the Standard Bluray that deal with the Ghostbusters Video Game but is otherwise complete.
