If we're talking hypothetical, it's gotta be...

The Game (Criterion)
Bottle Rocket (Criterion)

UH HUH.

Unless it's a homemade box, it's just one of those special editions they've done for other Warner titles with the same disc and some extra things like cards and maybe the CD soundtrack. Of course it would contain Warner's edition of the film, which is anamorphic but not the unrated cut.

If it's homemade, it could be a box for housing both DVD versions: Warner's and the Trimark edition which is unrated but non-anamorphic.

You are going to have to wish real hard for these DVDs, since the original audio tracks for these movies are in Cantonese. But if your dream is for these movies in original Japanese version, then I hope your dream comes true.

Chungking Express LE with lots of extras
Slacker LE (the 1991 movie)
Bertolucci's The Last Emperor in a good version
For nostalgia's sake, John Hughes 80's collection LE with tons of extras (the current High School Reunion and Ferris Bueller's are pretty thin)
Nausicaa and My Neighbor Totoro (coming soon)
Chariots of Fire LE (the current is P+S only).

Among other things, a 4-hour documentary about the making of the film. No kidding.

I was about to say this! I paid $90 for it a few months back and feel totally okay with it, it's a great movie, but the fact that only about 13 people have it just makes it that much better . Also, I third (or fourth, or whatever) The Game (Criterion) and the original trilogy.

Band of Brothers
- Great, entertaining series
- Great DTS soundtrack
- Important subject matter
- Quality extras: We Stand Alone Together doc and Ron Livingston's Video Diaries
- Metal case is the best packaging of any set I have
- High rewatchability
