- Getting There is Half the Fun: The Story of Planes, Trains and Automobiles (480p, 16:38): John Hughes, Steve Martin, and John Candy speak to the press. They discuss the casting, the quality of the script, Hughes' writing process, the film's string of F-bombs in one scene, edits and shortened scenes, shooting the famous "bed" scene, and more. The supplement is intercut with additional cast and crew interviews.
- John Hughes: Life Moves Pretty Fast (1080p): This two-part feature contains John Hughes: The Voice of a Generation (27:39) and Heartbreak and Triumph: The Legacy of John Hughes (25:52). The former features a parade of celebrities -- and Hughes himself -- speaking on the famed 1980s writer/director. Explored is his rapid-fire writing style, the way he shapes his characters, the reality and truths of life that are the foundations of his scripts, and more, all within the context of clips from numerous John Hughes films. The second feature concentrates on his connection with his actors and the need for them to become the character, not merely play the character. It also explores his work as a director, the role of music in his films, his personal difficulties in the film industry, and his death. These are two fascinating complimentary pieces that not only explore John Hughes the writer and director, but John Hughes the man.
- John Hughes for Adults (480p, 4:02): A look at Hughes' foray into adult-centered film rather than teen-centric pictures.
- A Tribute to John Candy (480p, 3:01): Cast and crew discuss Candy's range as an actor, his work in Planes, Trains & Automobiles, and his lovable real-life persona.
