Good Movie....Bad Extras

Have you got any Dvds which is a good film but has crap special features??

Captain Ron

I love this movie but it doesn't have on single special feature! 😠

John Carpenter's Vampires, Elephant Man, Happiness, Kids, Irreversible...just to name some

Dawn of the Dead (99 release) ~ Brilliant film, but pretty mundane extras, although the commentary by Tom Savini is it's saving grace.

Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Bulletproof (came in a box set)

The only special features on those were trailers

The original LotR:FotR DVD. I wasn't aware that they were coming out w/ an Ext. version at that point, so I was mad, b/c my fave kind of extra is commentary (and deleted scenes)

Goodfellas was an amazing movie but the DVD had nothing as far as special features... And of course who can forget Office Space? One of my favorite movies but the disc really has nothing special...

Spider-Man. Laughably bad (extras, not movie)

matrix 1

Region 2 sucks!!

There are so many discs that I have that are just vanilla editions...on region 2, here are a few examples-:

Rushmore
Grosse Pointe Blank
The Big Lebowski

It's about time region 2 had special editions, methinks...

I know that there are some great region one discs out there, like the criterion editions of Rushmore and Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas(we don't even have a vanilla edition of this!!😠 ), but we haven't had so much as whisper about them on these shores... 🙁

How about Titanic....the biggest movie of all time and it had nothing!!! There is so much that could have gone on that, at LEAST a 2 disc set. I am hoping they re-release that at some point in a special extended version with many extra's. Even though the movie was like 3 hours and 30 minutes, there is still about 45 minutes of footage they did not use. Maybe even more!!

I think there is a S:E in the pipeline- the vanilla edition has been advertised everywhere in the UK for a mere £5.99- in my experienece, they usually release a S:E after there is a sudden price drop of the vanilla release. 😠 I might be wrong, but I think that is what is happening...

I bought spiderman thinkig i would enjoy the extras for like maybe 5 hours. All the extras sucked. No real in depth info and even the bloopers sucked.

Yeah that DVD was terrible

Last Action Hero. It had nothing but the movie. Nothing.

I don't usually watch the extras on a DVD. Fed up with being dissapointed so often.

The Predator movies and Phone Booth

No, the movie too. 🙂

Mortal Kombat. Kickass movie, but the only special feature is "character profiles" that are ripped from the manual of the first game.

Yeah, when I first saw Spider-Man, I really enjoyed it, but it got cheesier every time, and now I just don't like it much anymore......

Hey you guys got to give the old movies some credit they didnt have dvds back then.And they didnt think to make some extra features and save them for a dvd.Life Goodfellas and the predator movies and Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison.

The Ones the Matrix had a good special feature.It went on for like a 45 min.
