[QUOTE="CCamfield, post: 1625810, member: 8123"] Hm... [i]must have[/i] DVDs? That's tough. But it's on my mind, as I am moving to Japan shortly (and temporarily) and won't be able to take every DVD in my collection with me. Off the top of my head, from my collection: - The Superbit edition of Lawrence of Arabia. Who cares about special features? Sometimes it's great just to have an amazing looking film. LoA is an epic movie and benefits greatly from having two entire discs for just the picture and sound. :) - Who Framed Roger Rabbit. A fun fun film, and special features [i]can[/i] be nice... - Adventures of Robin Hood. ...as well as restoration. The restored edition of this Errol Flynn film looks incredible and also has nifty features like behind-the-scenes footage that was actually taken back in the 30s and survived. - The Killer, and Hard Boiled. I have the Winstar DVDs which according to [url]www.loveandbullets.com[/url] are just about as good as the Criterions, and didn't cost me $200. :) - Wing Chun (Tai Seng DVD). While little known, this is, IMO, Michelle Yeoh's best movie. She plays a female martial artist fighting off bandits, while her boyfriend (played by Donnie Yen) comes home after many years and confuses her with another young woman. HK action movie/comedy and very good. - Iron Monkey (non-US release). Original soundtrack, nothing cut, on which note I guess I should also mention - Fist of Legend (Taiwanese release). In this case, the North American release's dub glosses over political content and changes the relationships between characters, by altering their dialogue. BAD DUBBERS! BAD BAD BAD! [/QUOTE]
