Amazon has the Jurassic Park Ultimate Trilogy Blu-ray (Blu-ray + Digital Copy) on for $30 with free shipping. Contains all three films digitally remastered with new features. Also stars the Colonel Sanders look-alike who's the brother of the narrator of those BBC nature documentaries.
I don't know what makes this the 'ultimate' trilogy. The movies depreciated in entertainment value after the first one. I remember seeing the third film at the theatre and leaving early because it was so dumb.
It's the ulimate because Dr Ian Malcom does the commentary. He watches the movies in sequence and takes a shot of Crystal Head Vodka every time a new dinosaur appears on screen. Needless to say he's bombed by the middle of the second movie and starts naming the chicks he nailed when their name appears in the credits - starting with Laura Dern. It's added hilarity is only fully realized when Jeff Goldblum is so bombed that he doesn't remember that he wasn't in the 3rd movie but trys to remember key moments in the filming.
"Oh boy!" said the dumb fellow as he pressed the buy button for the movie trilogy he had bought first in VHS, then in DVD, and now Blueray...
Look on the bright side, someday our video formats will be high enough resolution that they'll have to go back and remake it with CGI dinosaurs instead of real ones (like they did with star wars).

It's magical
Hey guy, is that for real?

Yeah. Pass. Maybe for $20, maybe. Probably not though.

Agree with #1. Like many movies they should have quit at 1.
