Jesse Owens. Was he balde? I would imagine that would make him a little more aerodynamic.

I don't remember Harrison Ford to be that balde either, sure he had very short hair

Check the disc by disc breakdown at http://www.thedigitalbits.com/review...lallver01.html

Disc 3 gets you a couple extra versions of the movie and disc 4 has a boatload of extras.

I'm getting the 5-disc HD DVD set without briefcase.

4 disc...

Unless it's worth ~ $40 extra MSRP to you for a case and an extra disc.

I've never seen it either. Am curious as it seems to have a very rabid fanbase. Course, Ive never seen ET all the way through either, just never really interested me.

I've never seen it at all. And I'm very much looking forward to it. But I'll have to either wait until Christmas to get it or pick it up after Christmas.

If you're interested in the Workprint, an excellent commentary by expert Paul M. Sammon, and a half hour featurette on the work that went into creating the Final Cut, it would be worth getting the briefcase on DVD. If you own an HD DVD or Blu-ray player, you can get the set with all five discs without the briefcase, which makes it cheaper.

Personally, I got both the HD DVD and Blu-ray briefcases.

4 Disc C.E. - 4 Versions of the film + Tons of extras. Spend the extra $30+ on another DVD...or 2.
