10. 'Pineapple Express: 2-Disc Unrated Special Edition' (Sony)

The best outtakes come from Judd Apatow comedies, hands down, and this is the best DVD from the Apatow factory this year (released in the first week of 2009), a hilarious and unexpectedly visceral collision of road movie, action thriller, accidental buddy comedy and stoner goof. This edition is slightly longer than the theatrical cut, but it's the hilarious collection of deleted and alternate scenes (including some apparently imported from an alternate universe) and generous helpings of behind-the-scenes footage that makes supplements so much more fun. "I Love You, Man" (Paramount) and "Zack and Miri Make a Porno" (Genius) are runners-up in the realm of great unused improvisations and cutting-room-floor scenes.
