1. Heat R2 - who need`s extras when you`ve got the best movie ever made ?
2. Ronin R2 - just to hear de Niro say "what`s in the case?" 100 times, and the third best car chase ever (after Bullitt & French Connection)
3. LA Confidential R2 - great movie, great plot, fantastic shootout - bullets all over the room
4. Matrix R2 - still hard to match
5. Contact R2 - Jodie`s Southern drawl and some of the best whooshy space noises ever
1 MIB - SE
2 Tarzan SE
3 The World Is Not Enough SE

RE: What`s yer top 5 DVD`s?
It`s tricky... (so I`ve put them in alphabetical rather than rank order)
Alien (20th Anniversary Special Edition) R1
El Mariachi/Desperado R2
LA Confidential R2
Mean Streets R1
Usual Suspects R1
5 I`d like to see on DVD:
King of Comedy
Goodfellas (non-flipper with commentaries and extras galore please)
Police Squad Box Set
Billy Liar/Saturday Night Sunday Morning/Kind of Loving and a whole host of other British classics
David, I`m a bit of a De Niro junkie - are there any decent extras on Mean Streets ?
RE: What`s yer top 5 DVD`s?
No, none at all really - thetrical trailer and still-screen mini-biogs and production notes.
The disc does have the widescreen version on one side and pan and scan on the other side.
Lack of extras aside it is worth getting if you are a De Niro fan. It stands the test of time and is one of the best De Niro/Scorsese collaborations (Harvey Keitel is excellent in it also).
As you correctly state David, the DeNiro/Scorsese brew works well - e.g TaxiDriver (Jodie at 13 - gulp!), Goodfellas...
Just out of curiosity where did you get it and, more importantly, how much wonga. Ya mook.... Cheers, matey
