I searched and really couldn't find reviews of this (other than people arguing whether it was worth the original price or not). I jumped on it while it's still available, but if anybody has a link to a worthwhile review, please post.

Randy, I just think it comes down to if the extra stuff is worth what they wanted to charge. I'm a huge Beatles fan, yet I didn't think the previous price was worth it. Now if it included some signed/numbered stuff... maybe. It's funny to read the Amazon reviews by people who didn't even buy it. Nice "review" there, people. A lot of stuff to wade through to find a few decent reviews.

I've checked this out at Best Buy a few times at $110. At $50, for me, it's a no-brainer so I pulled the trigger.

I'd been hoping this would price drop. The bonus stuff did not seem worth $100+ but that doesn't keep me from wanting it. Pulled the trigger. An Amazon customer review had the following list of contents. Still may not be $50 to most.

Disc 1 (96 minutes)
-HELP! Theatrical Movie
Digitally restored and newly created 5.1 soundtrack.
Disc 2 (57 minutes)
- The Beatles in Help! 30 minute documentary about the making of the film with Richard Lester, the cast and crew. Includes exclusive behind the scenes footage of The Beatles on set.
- A Missing Scene Featuring Wendy Richard
- The Restoration of Help! An in depth look at the restoration process
- Memories of Help! The cast and crew reminisce
- Theatrical Trailers 2 US trailers and 1 Spanish trailer
- 1965 US Radio Spots - Hidden in disc menus
Deluxe Package also includes:
- a reproduction of Richard Lester s original annotated script
- 8 lobby cards
- poster
- 60-page book with rarely seen photographs and production notes from the movie
