- The Ed Wood Collection – A Salute to Incompetence
- Ghost (Special Collector’s Edition): I suspect this is a repressing, but I don’t remember exactly.

Finally, the pick of the week. I’ve got to go with the Ed Wood collection. There’s no more reliable way to laugh than to sit down with an Ed Wood flick and just watch the train wreck itself, taking the entire train yard with it.
Yah.
The only thing I’m even remotely interested in this week is the Bond movie. *sigh*
Not to pick nits….
But how is Casino Royale a genre release? :)
Re: Not to pick nits….
It’s borderline, and we’ve had the discussion before, but we ruled ‘Bond’ flicks to be genre. Admittedly, ‘Casino Royale’ is pretty light on the gadgets and gizmos.
