-Link: Scary Movie - $22.49
-Notes: The movie isn't my style. There are some good scenes, but most of the humor is over the top. There is a fine line between obscenity and humor, they cross it too often. Baseketball is another movie that treads on the line, but they don't cross it. The obscenity in that movie is handled much better.-Seven: Written on the cover etc. as "Se7en".

-Cons: Weren't you paying attention? Sheish. Ok, there IS one con. They've got this contest/cupon thing on the cover plastic, which I find HIGHLY annoying, and when you peal it off it makes the area all sticky and stuff. Either put those on the shrinkwrap or INSIDE the case.

-Link: Sixth Sence - $25.49
-Notes: I hate to say it, but that con is a REALLY big con in my opponion. Enough that I was concdering getting rid of this DVD. This is a major annoiance in VHS, and unaccaptable on DVD, period. I can only hope that this isn't the start of a VERY bad trend. If you want to put trailers in, put them in the menu, but DON'T force people to watch EVERY TIME!-Spaceballs: Hey, it's a cult classic!
