Nice. I have the Boomstick edition DVD too, and I kept those discs with the BD. Don't have the autograph though, that's awesome.

I also have the Grinhouse BB steelbooks with both the DVDs and BDs inside.

It's not. I see it all the time. It's also the only version of Superman II released on blu-ray. It would be like saying Fly Away Home is rare because I never see that available at the store but it's readily available online. Ditto for something like Pyscho Beach Party on dvd.

I have a rare (not valuable mind you but still) complete CBS collector's set of the original Star Trek series (39 VHS). And if you don't think it's rare, how many sets do you know of also happen to have all 39 accompanying sell sheets to go with them?

None of my blu's are rare. I suppose on dvd I have an OOP Barbarella copy.

[Deadset]

^ I have all the LEXX seasons on DVD...i think those are OOP.

Blurays:

Third Man - which seems very common among members here
Watchmen Ultimate Cut

That depends. The old LEXX season dvd's are quite oop. All four uncut seasons on dvd were released in canada via Alliance this past year. Those are the ones I own.

[ozzsoad]

Probably the hardest movie to come by in my collection is Memento, I happened to come across one copy in Best Buy, a movie even Amazon didn't have. Of course I found out a week later they were re-releasing it...
