I just realized that I have almost no DVDs of comedies, so help me out here! I have Meet the Parents, both Simpsons sets, Family Guy vol 1, Monsters Inc. and Ice Age, and that's that!
Can any of you suggest me some comedies that have a decent amount of special features and the such?

Mallrats, Jay and Silent Bob Strike back, and there's a special edition of There's Something About Mary coming out on July 1st, with tons of extras.

Through all of my DVDs, the special features for Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back stand among them all. With many hilarious deleted scenes, some great improv'd takes, and some cool music videos, they're just as good as the movie itself

Like Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, the SE of Dogma rocks, with enough deleted scenes to make their own movie.
