I need to watch Anatomy of a Murder and October Sky. Love the rest.

They're all bare-bones, except The Machinist, which comes with a Director's commentary, Deleted Scenes & an Alternate Ending.

Also, October Sky has a short "Making of".

There's a DVD shopin DIC : dvdcafes.com (yup, that's what it is called). It's a small shop which had more DVDs than it could stock. So they had a stock-clearance where they gave away lots of DVDs for AED 10.00 each. I picked these.

One of my colleagues actually managed to pick King Kong and a whole season for Friends too!

They do have a store next to my office here. But their stock was very dynamic - one day they had somethig like Mortal Kombat & Space Jam. The other day they had only [i[Van Damme[/i] movies. I went there 4-5 times over a month to be able to pick these. And only bcaue it was very convenient to walk over to them.

Their delivery options are only valid for rental, not for the DVD's on sale (referred to as Ex-rentals because these are all movies that have been rented previously).

I managed to pick up a handful, mostly rotten one time watches or guilty pleasures, but even gems like Badlands with a rare R2 featurette not found on the DVD's here.

Kaytee...let me know i can lend some of these to you.
