 special editions...?
has anyone noticed nearly every dvd thats coming out is now a special edition, why dont they just keep all the stuff in 1 dvd and have it a normal edition instead of producing 2 versions

Money. Someone who is a fan of a movie will buy the first edition that comes out, but when they release a special edition, people who own the first will still buy the second. They gt twice the money.

What Mane said and "Special Edition" "Deluxe Edition" "Explosive edition" etc. are just a studio ploy to try to make a DVD look better to the buyer.

..that, and sometimes when a movie gets a sequel, they rehash the original release and add new features for fun. Sometimes, they end up being cheaper.
Tuesday, 2 disc versions of "The Fifth Element" and "Leon: The Professional" are being released. This marks the 4th time "Leon" has been on DVD, and the 3rd "Fifth Element" has. This time, they are 2 disc versions.

they should have normal dvd and then a special edition - they should make all dvds special with all the cool stuff...
why do special editions have to cost like $500 and the boring normal dvds cost like $1

They are normally the same price, given you buy them the week of their release.

Ever notice how with a lot of movies, the only edition out is labeled "Special Edition"? I guess that goes with Dr. Strangelove's comment about making the DVD sound good.

Yeah, what the hell is that all about? I'll admit THAT is cheap.
There is only one version of a certain DVD on the shelf, yet it is labelled a "Special Edition" - despite the fact there is no such thing as the "standard" version, because the "Special Edition" is actually just the standard version. Wierd.

Well, it depends. The original Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Army of Darkness (to name a few) DVDs had no special features. The special editions out are packed with them and reasonably priced.
