I've never seen El Mariachi, is it as good as Desperado?

DVD Planet has this dvd listed for cheaper as well as a single despardo dvd for $13. Check it out.

I haven't seen it either....But from what I read it only cost $7000, and some say that it's better then Desperado (?). Apparently, it's a lot less "Hollywood"....obviously.....

Robert Rodriguez is known to make great movies on small budgets.

In That complete set.. is there anyway of knowing if the movies are seperate with their seperate covers or are they just put together like with what they did with the Back to the future trilogy?

I bought a SE Double Sided version of El Mariachi/Desperado a couple of years ago, but I have yet to watch El Mariachi because it is in Spanish. I an watch Hong Kong movies with subtitles but anything else just isn't right

Has anyone found the new SE Desperado at any retail stores? I was at Target and Circuit City today, but neither had it in stock? I'd prefer not to buy it off Amazon if it's available at a local chain store...anybody?

Do both Desperado and El Mariachi have the "r-rated" trailer for OUATIM? Or does only one have it?

Why would they only have 2 of the movies?
Why not include El Mariachi?

I never understood the American pricing policy. Double feature of Deperado/El Mairachi is around £ 6 in Amazon.co.uk. I will go and buy that one. Such a good price

Dont' do that, man!
The SE hasn't been released in the UK, yet.
The one you're looking at is the old one, without any special features (or very little).....
