Lots of Documentary footage...behind the scenes stuff...one particularly good one is entitled "Puppets to Pixels". The deleted scenes are very good as well.
Netlon: I paid £19.99 for it...whatever that is in ¤ ??

The best price you're going to get in the UK is probably £16.99 inc P&P from play.com
Even taking P&P into account they're consistently cheaper than on the high street so if you can be prepared to wait a few days for delivery it's worth buying DVDs from them.

I second play.com they also have a great selection of region1 dvd's and japanese/american versions of stuff e.g tri repetae++ for cheap prices.....
No extra import or tax to pay(unlike trying to sneak stuff into the uk via amazon usa)

After the fucking godawful mess that was "Phantom Menace" there's no way I'd go see this in the cinema, but I'll rent it to see the latest special effects from the ILM folks. At this point I don't care about the storyline at all.

Episode 2 is much better than Episode 1, but in the scheme of things it's not all that great. Entertaining in a nindless way, nice special effects, Yoda kicks some ass, Hayden Christensen cannot act worth a damn. One to rent methinks, not buy,

Yeah the yoda scene was the one redeaming feature I'd say and it was too short. As for the special effects they kinda got old pretty quickly. At least it wasn't as bad as ep1. I'm actually looking forward to ep3 despite the fact that it'll be just like ep2.

the principal problem is the chronology... how can anyone thrust that the presents episodes are in the past, and the first ones are in the future...
its killing me so every scientific technologies we see now (as the double laser and shits) have dissapear somewhere in the chaos???
and how could anyone like jarjar binks... im just amazed...maybe like surrounded is amazed by the fear and loating in las vegas fans...
i just cant get it (btw i loved the 3 first episodes...) :/

We do get them on a Mondat but generall unless it's a worldwide release we get things ages after you. Films are out on DVD over with you before it's even hit the cinema here. Plus more often than not you DVDs are better. A good comparison being the Nightmare on Elm Street boxset. 5 discs here. 8 for you. I import most of my films. Tuesday is an odd day for releasing stuff though.

Well us UK'ers finally got the dvd release - it's the two disc version with the us theatrical version and the director's cut, plus all the goodies you can handle. It's not the bootleg version (with which I think only the packaging differs?) but it's a damn fine purchase all the same and looks good next to my book of the dead!

Ooooh I was so happy when I looked through the book and saw it to have all the pics from the book in the movie. I just need Dead By Dawn now, although I wish it was also some kind of special package (being as ED1 is in the book format and AoD is a 2 disc fucka) - Evil Dead 2 is probably the best film of the lot.

I hear you on that. I have the DVD and it's alright. Although I agree about the lack of a special edition for the best of the lot. The man cuts his fricking hand off in it for Chist's sake. Did you know Carmageddon sampled Evil Dead II? I was playing it one day and just recognised a scream as being the exact one from the film. I'll give you a counter point if you want and try adn find the file from the game.

I haven't played Carmageddon for a looong time - but I'd be interested in seeing where the scream is from. I can always download the game from Kazaa =oD
Btw, thanks to Powerdvd you shall be seeing many variations on Ash's mug nowadays (screen capture easily one of the best features of the programe) and if the avatar kb limit ever gets bumped back up I shall be doing some animated shite yay!
Oh yeah... Yoda kicks ass blah blah blah blah

I got mine today, toys r us had it for $9.99 thats L6.29 HAHAHAHAHA. Capitalism has its advantage. Why are pounds worth so much compared to dollars, the conversion rate sucks. In england the DVD is L16.99 thats $27.00 which is three times what i paid.
