This is such an interesting thread I had to reply. My DVD (purchased at my local Walmart) only uses the phrase Sorcerer's Stone. I had assumed the difference was simply akin to "apartment" vs "flat". I admit my education did not include much in the way of reference to alchemy save that it was a precursor to modern chemistry and involved the search for a process to produce gold. I hate to admit it but I suspect the publishers may have been correct. Few public school children would have known the reference. As was, the most likely only assumed it simply referred to a stone which belonged to a sorcerer.
