The good thing about this is that he never remembers that he gave them to me in the first place! He and I like a lot of the same movies, and a lot of them have been double or triple dipped by the studios. but I know I am eventually going to replace it with the better version. I know that he just uses my Amazon wish list and I've always wondered if maybe they sent the wrong one by accident. Related: That same Christmas my dad got me the non-S.E. Does anyone know if the discs are identical? The one I have has a second disc of extras in a sleeve, so annoying. My dad got it for me off of Amazon a few years ago and immediately afterwards they put out a much nicer digipak type off case. One that I've always been bummed about though is Oliver Stone's JFK. I even (foolishly) bought Bonnie & Clyde recently because it was on sale for only a few bucks. We have hundreds of discs between us so of course some of them are old New Line or Warner snappers. I started buying in 2000, my fiancee a year or two before that. With most of them, that was the only choice I had. It's possible that I'll just scan my remaining snappers and create custom covers eventually, but for now I think Disc Sox will be my "snapper solution". Other titles I'm anxiously awaiting SEs or keepcase versions of, but in the meantime I just store them separately from my other DVDs, which is a practice that did come out of how annoying it was to have them among keepcases. Unfortunately, my affinity for original key art has meant that a few snappers are destined to stay with me for quite a while, like the BATMAN movies, because I don't really like not having the logo artwork on the new covers. plus of course all the ones where the studio (mostly New Line) finally decided to re-release titles in keepcases. Two Weeks Notice (Hollywood Video pre-viewed) Looney Tunes: Back In Action (Hollywood Video pre-viewed) In the past, I've avoided the following snappers, and am very happy I did: That said, I always try to make sure the movie's really not available in any other packaging before plunking down money for a snapper. It is optional to us consumers to buy DVDs if we want the title(s) (regardless of the case they're originally in) or we don't.I agree 100%. Basically, the consumer does not have a choice anyway, whether the DVD has been manufactured with a jewel, amaray, tin, or snapper case. I don't purchase DVDs for the type of case they're packaged in, I purchase DVDs for the movie, and it's contents on the disc(s).
