Quote:
12. What is, in your estimation, your most obscure movie?
Not really sure, but probably Amelie: Collector's Edition (region 2), it's a numbered edition and I have never seen a number higher than 4 digits, so that would mean that there are no more than 9999 printed.

There are more unnumbered editions around than numbered, so it's not that obscure. Sorry!
