Saw is the only one of those i own, so it gets my vote based on the "bad ass packaging" factor alone. Content wise, not so good unfortunately

Slow month overall... but my favorite:
Edison: The Invention of the Movies (http://www.kino.com/edison/)

Second place goes to Piccadilly (http://dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=14696)

EDIT: Crap, I think Piccadilly came out on March 1. Damn, I'll have to save that for the next poll.

I'll give 2nd place to Angel: Season 5 then.

I chose Donnie Darko The Director's Cut. I bought this because it was cheap, not expecting much out of it but I have to admit that it was like watching a completely different movie. I actually liked it alot better than the theatrical release and thought it cleared things up without being so rigid as to stiffle any individual theories.

I didn't buy any of those listed and probably never will.

I did buy Angel S5 though.

The Grudge. It had commentary and a good documentary.

If South Park had full length commentaries, I would've picked that.

South Park: The Complete Fifth Season got my vote, with honorable mentions to Leave Her to Heaven: Studio Classics; The Palm Beach Story; The Life of Emile Zola: Special Edition; and Penn & Teller: Bulls**t! The Second Season.

I just rented the Raging Bull SE from Netflix. Great extras. Unfortunately, the movie disc they sent me was the new standard edition that came out the same day as the SE. So the commentaries I was hoping to listen to didn't arrive.
