What are two good DVD's to get?

I was charged for my required purchases on CH and sent coupons to redeem two free dvds. I was thinking Old School as one. What are some others you would recommend (at least 20 bucks)

I'm not a member of CH, but there are threads on which ones they carry that are limited editions (Ran - MAsterworks, Limited Edition Momento, I think, and others). I'm sure someone will post a few recommendations. the Old School dvd is a lot of fun. What about Being John Malcovich or Clerks or Da Ali G show?

John Malcovich & Clerks are good picks as well.

So Old School is a good choice?

The rest of the movies listed I haven't seen, and usually shy away lately from blind buys. I heard good things about Ali G...but haven't seen it.

This thread has everything that you could ever want to know about Columbia House:

http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=107726

For your situation, in particular, I would look at Section 3 Maximizing Your Enrollment Selections and download a spreadsheet version (the csv format) of the current list of Columbia House movies in order to help find the high priced ones. (Here is a link to the download page so you don't have to hunt it down ---> Link).

Good luck!

Do a search at amazon for something you might like, read the reviews, then buy them at columbia house.

I ordered Old School and There's Something about Mary, was thinking Office Space, but it's probably 10 bucks at the store.

BTW, except for new DVD's, are most dvd's now $15 in stores?

also, there's a special edition of Office Space that's coming out soon, so you'd want to wait for that one instead of getting tha bare bones one out now.

Yeah, but for how long has it been supposed to come out?
