The Region 4 Buena Vista disc misses out on: The Region 1 Buena Vista misses out on: From the above it's an easy decision, but it's not quite so clear cut. If you are on a budget then pick up the bare-bones (but with a very nice video transfer) Region 4 Buena Vista disc, which at less than fifteen bucks is supreme value. If money is no object then read further since that decision is likely to be changed. For those of you wanting the very best version of this title, you could indulge in The Criterion Collection release of this film which includes a swag of extras, such as: - Audio commentary by Wes Anderson, Owen Wilson and Jason Schwartzman
- Documentary - The Making of Rushmore
- Max Fischer Players theatrical adaptations of Armageddon, Out Of Sight and The Truman Show staged for the 1999 MTV Movie Awards
- The Charlie Rose Show, featuring Wes Anderson and Bill Murray
- Cast audition footage
- Wes Anderson's hand-drawn storyboards and film-to-storyboard comparisons
- Theatrical trailer
- Photographs, props, posters
- Collectible poster insert
With an extras list like that there is really no contest, so I'll easily declare the Region 1 Criterion disc as the winner here, unless you want this disc for the absolute cheapest price.
