How did I miss the Dread Pirate edition of the Princess Bride?

I just want a quality transfer of the movie and if nothing else is on there I'm ok with it since that generally means it is $10 cheaper.

Since I refuse to spend more than $10 for a DVD it makes it a lot easier to get quality if they ocassionally put out a bare-bones edition.

Well, I think you're alone. You can still find the extras on a cheap edition by surfing ebay and amazon used if a cheap DVD is your goal.

I love all the extras, makes for some interesting viewing and I rarely listen to the commentary simply because even if I've seen the movie a dozen times, I can't bear anyone talking over it, even the director
