I Am Legend
(Warner Brothers, $20)
The DVD version of Will Smith’s apocalyptic thriller includes a ��much more satisfying conclusion” than the theatrical release, said New York. The bonus features include the “darker, original ending,” which attempts to explain why the humans-turned-zombies, products of a man-made virus gone awry, are so “pissed off.” Test audiences hated it. We love it.

Bull Durham
(MGM, $15)
If you can’t make spring training this year, get your baseball fix with this collector’s edition, said Elizabeth Weitzman in the New York Daily News. Although this is Bull Durham’s third trip to DVD, this 20th-anniversary disc offers commentary by stars Kevin Costner and Tim Robbins, along with featurettes on minor-league baseball and the making of the sports classic.
Antonio GaudÃ
(Criterion, $40)
This documentary will transport design lovers “too cash-strapped to make the trans-Atlantic jaunt” to architect Antonio GaudÃ’s Barcelona, said Paul Underwood in GQ. Hiroshi Teshigahara, who made the film in 1984, takes a poetic look at the visionary’s fantastical designs, “which made him something like the Frank Gehry of his time.”
