The Big Lebowski (Limited Edition)

If you're looking for a collectors edition Blu-ray that'll really tie the room together, look no further than The Big Lebowski Limitied Edition, which includes U-Control special features like "Mark It, Dude" (an on-screen counter which keeps track of the “F-bombs,” “Dudes” and Lebowski-isms during the film), a scene companion so you can check out behind the scenes footage and interviews as you watch the film. And we can't forget a limited edition collectible 28-page book which includes a exclusive interviews, Jeff Bridges’ on-set photography, a film timeline trivia and much more so you won't be out of your element.

Coen Brothers Collection (Blood Simple/Fargo/Miller's Crossing/Raising Arizona)

Aspiring filmmakers take note: you will NEVER be as good at the craft as Joel and Ethan Coen (sorry, but someone needs to set it to you straight), but that certainly doesn't mean you can't enjoy the early work of the Academy Award winning siblings. Although lacking in special edition goodies, Blood Simple, Fargo, Miller's Crossing and Raising Arizona are all incuded in this set of glorious, Blu-ray remastered razzle-dazzle.

Scream (5 Film Set)

Sure, this set doesn't include the recently released fourth film (which must come as a huge disappointment to all you completists out there), but you do get the first three films of the quadrilogy, as well as two documentaries, 'Still Screaming' (a retrospective on the trilogy and its impact with the stars and crew who made the films), and 'Scream: The Inside Story' (The Biography Channel's documentary on the first film which was released a couple weeks prior to Scream 4).
