Those are all pretty bare-bones packages (except "Bad Boys"), I mean, don't expect to much in the way of extras. I personally really dig the Robert Redford spy flick "Three days of the condor", and "The Conversation" is one of Coppola's best films, period. "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas" is a classic Gilliam blow-your-mind fest that really rocks, "48 Hrs." is probably Eddie Murphy's best film to date, and "The Dead Zone" is a masterpiece from Cronenberg and Walken. "Malcolm X" is the longest, and a great Denzel performance included in Spike Lee's opus. "2 days in the valley" is stylish if empty, and "Courage Under Fire" blows big time...

Not that anyone really cares, but i would definitely get "48 Hrs." first, just 'cause it's impossible for anyone NOT to like it. I would get "Fear and loathing in Las vegas" myself, 'cause it's a blast. /ubb/wink.gif

I agree with bob. The Conversation is my favorite film of those you listed, and it has a decent amount of extras (Coppola commentary for one) on the disc.

Fear and Loathing would be my second choice.

Bad Boys - good movie
But Fear And Loathing is a classic and definately should not be dismissed.
Personally, i'd get Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas.
