"Right...I have 2 DVDs to claim now"

Both me and my sister have a GAD Prize 3 to claim (My sister is a one hit wonder that goes by the name of Kat Mac). What the hell do we get?

At present, my families DVD collection consists of: American History X, Blazing Saddles, Romeo Must Die, Shawshank, Pearl Harbor, Private Ryan, Fight Club, Shrek, and Hackers. Seven + Austin Powers 2 should be in the post about now.

So, I leave it to you good people to decide the two that we get. I'm considering Battle Royale...

Got that for my last GAD. Next.

Get Memento

go for Girlfight or Mallrats. Mallrats is the product of comedy genius Kevin Smith and features a plethora of quotable lines that you can role out at any occasion safe in the knowledge that no one else has watched mallrats and anyone who has will just respond with another mallrats quote and respect you. It's a gilt-edged, guaranteed winner every time.

Girlfight is the thinking man's GAD, it's provactive, interesting and features girls boxing against boys. Brilliant stuff.

Battle Royale is out on the 21st of January and I haven't seen it yet, so I'll reserve judgement. But the director is a genius.

Me, Myself And Irene is a great film. A must buy or win as this case is.

Not sure whether anybody stocks it, but anyone who is a fan of the League of Gentlemen should DEFINATELY get the live Drury Lane performance DVD.

Hillarious.

Anybody!? I meant "not sure whether SR stocks it" but for some strange mystical reason got it COMPLETELY wrong.

American Beauty, fantastic movie and the documentary on the making of the film is fine.

Transformers the movie - just because.

Tarzan - because sometimes you need a little Disney, and this is one of the best.

Independence Day - the 2 disc pack is stunning and the 5.1 version of the film just blows you away.

Star Wars Episode 1 - Go on, you know you really want to see it again for the good bits. The other disc is well worth getting it for anyway.

Lord of the Rings (animated) - Mixed reviews, but I like it.

Terminator/Terminator 2 - two of the best DVD sets around for extras, and fine films to boot.

Well it all depends on your taste in films, but three or four relatively recent releases I would go for are:

- Cast Away
- Star Wars: The Phantom Menance
- Terminator 2: Ultimate Edition
- Transformers The Movie
- Traffic
- Gladiator

..whoops that's more then four :-)
