There's in introduction by the writer/director

Storyboard Compares:
Westwood Carjacking
Chinatown

Script-to-Screen Compares:
"I just had a gun"
"Helping hand"

Music Montage

Photo Gallery

Nothing really extravagant. Menus, Introduction, Photo Gallery and Music Montage are all 16X9.

I wouldn't go out of my way to get the bonus disc, but I am glad that I have it. I know there isn't too much on there, but I love comparisons like what we have on this one, and the music montage is pretty cool also.

They should have just thrown all of that crap on the disc and left it at that. Best Buy must be really working someone behind the scenes to get all of these so called "bonus discs". Some of their bonus discs or extra gifts are worth it (Tommy Boy, Lost, and a few others) but it almost seems desperate on their part to get you to buy from them.

I price-matched the Good Guys price of $9.99 at Best Buy so overall, I feel the bonus disc was worth it.

I like how it is housed inside the case, so it's like my Crash is two discs instead of a random disc with best buy printed all over it stuck in.

I agree with dsa shea- these 'bonus discs' lately are just not worth the effort of getting the dvd from best buy-
I should have saved 2.00 and went to circuit city for Crash-

the effort of simply walking into BB and picking it up on release week?...tough job. plus mine only cost $12.99 at BB w/ bonus because i price matched, which i think, i think...you could have done as well.

My feeling is that many times these bonus discs are just a way to pull us into a patricular store (usually Best Buy) to buy the dvd. Most of the time theyre not really worth the effort. There has been a few bonus discs and extras that have been of late but most of the time it seems like a desperate plea saying "please buy from us".
