Video:
The Titanic - 10th Anniversary Edition splits the 194-minute movie across two discs, allowing for a better compression rate alongside the substantial extras included on each disc. The 1.66:1 transfer is pristine, showing the depth and detail of James Cameron's gigantic luxury liner.

Sound:
You have a variety of sound options to choose from. The English audio is mixed in 6.1 DTS and Dolby 5.1 and 2.0, while the French and Spanish dubs are also in 2.0. These match the video quality in terms of excellence.

There are also optional English subtitles in all discs and Spanish & French on dvd 3

Special Features:

29 never-before-seen deleted scenes with optional commentary
Alternate ending: Brock's Epiphany
Branching viewing option to see background materials
Production and special effects featurettes
"Breaking New Ground" TV speicial
Visual effects breakdown of the stunts
Music video of "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion

Titanic - 10th Anniversary Edition has a lot of supplements spread across both discs. There are a total of three commentaries to choose from, depending on your preferred poison:
1. James Cameron dissecting the making of the movie in exacting detail.
2. The cast and crew: actors Kate Winslet, Gloria Stuart, and Lewis Abernathy, and producers Jon Landau and Rae Sanchini. Or so you'd think if you look at the DVD box. In actuality, the commentary is much more sprawling, including actors Bill Paxton, Frances Fisher, Billy Zane, Jonathan Hyde, Danny Nucci, and Jason Barry; composer James Horner; second-until director Steve Quale; dive coordinator Ralph White; art director Martin Laing; Deborah Scott, costumes; choreographer and etiquette coach Lynn Hockney; Jimmy Muro, steadycam operator; audio mixer Gary Rydstrom; and others. Outside of Sanchini and Landau, I don't think any of the other people are in a room together. Subtitles helpfully inform you of who is speaking as they begin, because it's impossible to keep up with; unfortunately, if you choose to try to view the branching featurettes with this commentary, those identifying subtitles disappear.
3. Historians Don Lynch and Ken Marschall discussing the history behind the movie.

The discs also have a cornucopia of short documentary features, 61 in all, over 50 minutes in total running time. They begin with the motivation behind making the movie and end with the filming of the Celine Dion music video for the theme song. You can watch these one by one, using a "play all" function, or branched into the movie. As you watch the film, a sinking-ship icon will appear on the bottom of the screen at the appropriate time. Select it, and it takes you to the specific featurettes related to that moment, and then back to the movie. These are short but exhaustive little pieces, including new interviews, historical perspectives, rehearsal footage, and layer-by-layer looks at the visual effects shots.

Disc 2 also has the aforementioned Celine video for those looking to punish themselves, as well as a nine-minute extended ending that reflects Cameron's original script but that was cut to be more enigmatic. Cameron provides optional commentary for this section.

Again, these are all extras that were on the 2005 three-disc Titanic, and the third disc of deleted scenes and vintage TV specials is only available in the older set.
