Lately I've been on a big anime kick, and I want to buy the DVDs for the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex TV series. Of course you can't just buy the series, there are several versions to choose from. In this case, a standard version with about four episodes per disc, then a special edition version where each disc includes metal cases, toys, t-shirts, and other goodies, then a box set that's rather unfabulous but has all the episodes for one good price. Man, I can't decide.
Here is what's interesting. Whenever a movie or show comes out on DVD and they offer more than one version, I have a hard time choosing which version to get. Or else I become too afraid to buy it in case a newer, better version comes out. So in the end I don't buy any of them. This happens a lot, especially with all the nerd movies I love. Aliens is one of my favourite movies of all time and I don't own a copy.
Mind you, if they ever release the giant Alien head DVD set here like they did in Japan, I'm SO GETTING IT.
