Weekend DVD purchases

[The Burgomaster]

Here they are (and what a motley crew of movies this is):

* DIE ANOTHER DAY
* ABOUT SCHMIDT
* BANG THE DRUM SLOWLY
* BRIAN'S SONG (the remake)
* 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA
* PAPILLON
* FLIGHT OF THE PHOENIX
* TERMINATOR
* TERMINATOR 2 (in the special metal case)

I had about 6 other movies in my hand, but I figured that my wife would kill me if I bought that many at once.

>20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA

The original, I presume?

My last DVD purchase was the first two seasons of Red Dwarf, and they did a great job with those and loaded 'em with extras.  Next on the list is Die Another Day and the Cradle of Filth video Heavy Left Handed and Candid.

Well, the original was silent. So, no, I did not get that one.

I got the better known Disney version with James Mason, Kirk Douglas and Peter Lorre. A classic.

Check out the ALUCARDA DVD....it's a wild "possessed nun" flick.  I got it last week--probably one of the better releases I've seen in a while.

What were the other six? Also, there are two metal T2 cases out there, is it the eXtreme version with the skull etched onto it (which I just bought myself actually) or just the plain special edition metal one

Oops. I wasn't aware that there was a silent version...
