Well this DVD comes out today (11/13/07) and Im actually amazed thats its the 20th anniversary already for this film. I dont know whats on the DVD other then the movie, but it comes with a free T-shirt lol (at least best buy says it does). Anyone a fan of this movie?

Love the movie, but I won't be picking this up as I got the Dread Pirate edition that came out right around a year ago I believe.

I enjoy the edition I have, but if you don't have a copy I'd say run out and grab it.

And it doesn't quite seem like 20 years, does it?

LOVE this movie. I already own a 'special edition' of this DVD though from a few years ago.... Can anyone tell me what's new on this 20th anniv. edition? Or the 'Dread Pirate' edition for that matter?

I love this movie too. I have a cheap version from years ago, so I might pick this up if the extras are worth it. Anyone know what they are?

On the Dread Pirate edition the features are as follows (actually just pulled it out to watch the other day):

"As You Wish: The Story of The Princess Bride" Documentary
"Dread Pirate Roberts: Greatest Legend of the Seven Seas" Historical Analysis
Cary Elwes' Home Movies
"Love is Like a Storybook Story" Featurette
"Miraculous Make-Up" Featurette
Original 1987 Featurette
Vintage Making-Of Documentary
The Quotable Battle of Wits Trivia Game
Audio Commentary by Director Rob Reiner
Audio Commentary by Writer William Goldman
Photo Gallery
Fezzik's Guide to Florin - Booklet

As for the 20th anniversary edition's features, it doesn't have as many as the Dread Pirate edition (or the basically identical Princess Buttercup edition), but I know it comes with two new Documentaries and the DVD Princess Bride game.

This is like the 5th release of this film on DVD so I'm passing. I already own the first Anniversary edition from 5 years ago.
