Help needed - from my DVD wishlist, which regions should I get?

[Rik Booth]

This is my DVD wishlist (http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mycollection.asp?alias=RikBooth&type=W), with all titles (aside from Blood Simple) being R2.

Could people tell me which discs would be better in other regions, so I can amend accordingly.

Thanks very much. :thumbs:

Thanks Jon, but some titles don't have comparisons on there yet. :)
