Shout! provides a brief yet colorful array of extras on both discs, highlighted by the enthusiastic audience testimonials from IMAX screenings and quirky, albeit poorly animated, speed comparisons involving F-35s, Bugattis, and even Usain Bolt. A mixture of promotional trailers rounds out the set, ensuring a comprehensive package for aviation enthusiasts.
