"Must Have DVD's?"

Right, look at your DVD collection. Any good movies?
What I want is suggestions to DVD's that are not only great movies but also have great extras on the DVD.

Please really think about it and don't just name films that are fairly average and you would only really watch once.

Cheers for your suggestions.

Are you stoned? Is your TV broken? Pefect quality, great extras. Jesus, am I the only one with the special edition (which is the only available version)?

I didnt think it was that bad...

I have predator 2 on VHS. Poor film, poor quality, obviously no extras, waste of time and money.

Urgh, urgh and urgh. You named some good films, then dented my respect for you with those three, heh.

Crouching Tiger - overhyped nonsense.
AI - nonsense which Spielberg made worse by sticking aliens in 'em.
Sixth Sense - as usual, the ending was spoiled by my friend, but watching it when you know the ending is crap.

Die Hard sucks balls

The David Lynch triple bill. No extras, but with Films this good, who needs 'em?

Mulholland Drive
Lost Highway
Eraserhead
