I have the original, bought it in 1991. It's been a good friend to me and i've had good times with it. I dont know about any of the new editions, but I am aware of variations regarding the GF film. For example, there's the letterbox type cover (which has a beige/bronze outline around Vito's picture) then there's the 25th anniversary edition, and now there's the DVD, which apparently has more scenes and what have you. I personally recommend you get the original of each book/film, but this is up to you. Usually rereleases are gimmicks for impulse buyers.
