Name says it all really. What's the pride and joy in your collection? Here are a few of mine:

Dawn Of The Dead (1978) R1 4 disc collectors set. 3 cuts of the film 2 documentarys and an exclusive comic book.

Bladerunner (1982) R2 5 disc exclusive metal tin (metal tin not shown). 5 versions of the film, a huge 3 and a half hour doc, lenticular image and key ring.

The Beyond (1981) Metal tin. Limited to only 20,000 copies. Selling for up to $130 on Ebay. OOP a few years ago.

Dust Devil (1994). 5 disc set limited to 9,999. 2 versions of the film. 4 exclusive documentarys and a comic book.

Leolo (1992)
Amazing French-Canadian movie from a director who sadly died in a plane crash not long after the movie came out. Imagine a cross between Pan's Labyrinth and The Royal Tenenbaums and you're getting close to what this movie is like. I had the hardest fucking time finding this on DVD. So that, coupled with the fact that it's one of my favorite movies, easily makes it my most treasured. Of course once I finally got my hands on it I started seeing it for sale in stores all over the place but that seems to be the way these thing go.

SERENITY COLLECTOR'S EDITION

FIREFLY TV SHOW BOXSET

SERENITY MOVIE ON DVD (redundant, I know)

THE OFFICIAL COMPANION (screenplay and other bits)

I also have the novel based on the screenplay and all the comics so far.

Love. That. Movie. It is insanely good.

Yeah, and my mom won't watch it with me. It's always "No, Fatal Attraction" or "No, random Harrison Ford movie"

Everyone hates on the anime.
I picked up the soundtrack recently, and it's just as good.

No pretty postcards , no flashy gimmick box , no special features or commentaries. Just the greatest TV series ever made , and that'll do me fine.

I like the postcards etc but only if they only add genuine value to the overall package.
