Pocket Guide to Collecting Movies on DVD: Building an Essential Movie Collection-With Information on the Best DVD Extras, Supplements and Special Feat

With all these "Special Edition" "Extended Version" and "Director's Cut" DVD's floating around, this cheap little book is worth the money to anyone building a library of DVDs. What's on the three-disk Fellowship of the Rings that isn't on the original DVD release? Which version of Casablanca has the interview with the writers? Which 80-dollar "Special Edition" of the movie is the same old DVD but in a fancy box with a poster? The writers of this pocket guide have watched all the supplemental material and can tell you what's there. They're not afraid to tell you what's worthwhile and what's drivel. As a screenwriter and an author (Crafty Screenwriting), I like to watch my DVDs over and over. I'm glad I've added this book to my library.

This is an amazing book, full of the information you really need and can see when you get a DVD of your favorite movie, but beyond that, the reviews of the actual movies are tremendous--fun, intelligent, and full of movie history.I can't wait for their next book. With many of the great movie reviewers gone, thank heavens for this team, to amuse and inform us about the movies! Pauline Kael, meet the Wine Couple.Bravo.

THIS IS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND WELL-WRITTEN GUIDE TO DVD MOVIES, A MUST FOR ANY COLLECTOR.THANK YOU TO THE AUTHORS FOR THEIR STIMULATING STUDY.

This is an essential book for anyone who has ever thought about buying a DVD. Ever since I bought my DVD player I had no idea where to even begin my DVD collection. This book has certainly pointed me in the right direction to begin creating the ultimate DVD library for myself and my son. It is eloquently written and easy to understand. The write-ups on the DVD extras and special features are particularly informative. Definitely a must have!
