Rick Springfield - The Beat of the Live DrumRick Springfield - The Beat of the Live Drum
Buy used from: $4.35
1985. Fincher has been cutting his teeth on music videos and commercials for years. Even now, when he's not working on a film, he's testing camera equipment and experimenting.

1990. "Express Yourself", "Oh Father" and "Vogue"

1992. Alien^3. Fincher denounces this film and doesn't count it in his filmography. Since he didn't opt to have his name taken off the film though, I suppose it still counts. This is one of the most important special additions available. The documentary on the second disc is amazing and a must for any film student.

1995. Se7en. An intense film school in a box. It has four commentary tracks by every person but the best boy, an alternate ending and in depth study of the opening title sequence.
The GameThe Game
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $3.02
1997. The Game. A brilliant film that takes place in San Francisco and tells the story of a suit who learns how to live again. This disc is bare bones, but if you have the means I highly recommend picking up the LaserDisc instead. It has all of Fincher's usual lovelies, including an alternate ending.

1997. The Game. I had high hopes that this would include all the special features from the LD on yet another dying format, but alas, no such luck. This is bare bones too, and the image quality is sub-par for even DVD standards. (ouch!)

Fight Club (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)Fight Club (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $24.99 / Used from: $5.77
1999. Fight Club. A film about identity, self-discovery and self-improvement. Similar to The Game, only more anarchic. Fun with soap! The extras package on here is Fincher grade.

Panic Room (3-Disc Special Edition)Panic Room (3-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $4.10
2002. Panic Room. Fincher's hand at Hitchcock. Beautiful cinematography and great performances makes this one heck of a popcorn flick. The sheer wealth of goodies on this edition for the price makes this a no brainer.

Zodiac (Widescreen Edition)Zodiac (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $0.49
2007. Zodiac. After five years of absence, Fincher returns to the big screen and the results are... underwhelming to me. There were rumors of a six hour cut a la Von Stroheim's Greed, and there definitely was a three hour Director's cut. After seeing this film I would love to see either. This really left me wanting more, and not in a good way. I know that's sort of the point, but...

2007. Zodiac. Despite Fincher's right to "Final Cut" on this film, this is actually not it. The director's cut has five minutes added, when Fincher's Final Cut had 25 min. added.

2007. Zodiac. Same stuff on High-Def. Can't wait for the Blu Ray on this puppy.
