Some of you may know that The Matrix is by far the greatest film I've ever seen, and up until today I was the proud owner of the two disc collectors edition. Now that's going up on eBay to make way for this:

http://www.dvdbulletin.co.uk/reviews/129/

Just ordered it from an online retailer who will remain anonymous for obvious reasons. What's the most exciting part of it though, is all the collectables you receive. Lobby stills, black and white stills, an original Senitype, which is basically an image from the film with one frame of the corresponding 35mm film and an original theatrical full size movie poster. I couldn't click "buy" fast enough.

Anyone else have this?

I'm not wanting to promote rival sites such as Amazon on the forums as SR have expressed clearly that it's not what they want. Is that not obvious?

They're good, but there's plenty better:
Armour of God
Dragon Lord
Operation Condor
Police Story 1, 2, 3
Project A 1 & 2
Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Stars and My Lucky Stars
Wheels on Meals
The Young Master

All feature amazing fights and PROPER stunts, none of that CGI bullcrap.

And any Bruce Lee fans, I know there were many before Enter the Dragon, but none had the style and brilliance to compare to it.

I'd have to suggest you watch Enter the Dragon, it is the original and best martial arts film and a true classic.

For Jackie Chan, I would suggest First Strike, Rumble in the Bronx or Mister Nice Guy. Jackies style is very comedic, but the choreography is nothing short of unbelievable.

I haven't seen a proper Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee film, actually. I'd like to watch a few - if only for the great fighting.
