Page 1 of What to buy in America

I will hopefully be visiting the States in a couple of weeks on business and wondered if anyone had any suggestions as to decent dvds that I either cannot get in Europe or have better extras etc in America. I enjoy thriller/action/blockbuster movies so anything along those lines would be great.

1st on the list is Bubba Ho-Tep after all the positive reviews on here....any other suggestions?

My Collection

I`d buy a local newspaper (preferably sunday`s edition) and look for store offers and vouchers, take from there. Walmart, Target, circuit city, etc will always have a bargain in store.

See if you can get into the country first, I watched Tonight with Trevor McDonald, and apparently anyone who isn`t an American will be treated as suspected terrorists.

On the program they said it isn`t in isolated cases, but is happening quite a lot.
If you do get pulled to one side because they don`t like the look of your face, they immediately arrest you, where they handcuff you from your hands to your feet like they would with a serial killer.

They hold you in a cell or office for over 24 hours, without food, water, or rights to see a lawyer, for security reasons. Then when they interview you, asking you personal questions, that has no relation to the accusations, they fingerprint you, take a mug shot If you, and then they send you back home, and barred from entering the country for life.

I was in America recently & there was a very good Buy 3 get a 4th free DVD offer in Borders, which included everything, boxsets and all.

So I ended up with Dukes of Hazzard Series I, Simpsons Season 4, Citizen Kane (much better extras on R1) and Back to the Future Trilogy (much better extras on R1). I was also considering getting Memento (again, better extras) & Boogie Nights (same).

I`d recommend that you get one of the `Dark Shadows` box sets. (Cheesy daytime vampire soap from late 60`s / early `70`s). You`ll hate it, unlike my good self who`ll happily re-live a mispent youth in the US ... Actually, now I think about it, I`ll take it off your hands completely free of charge. Now that`s a win-win... ;)

Thought of a couple of others; Leon - the professional Uncut Int. Edit.

Anyone any thoughts on Hellboy?
