DVD's with multiple main movie titles

Every so often I come across a DVD that has more than one primary main movie title. Sometimes it might say "Angle 1", "Angle 2", or something similar. Once I was looking at the remarks said something like "Queues for visually impaired". But I have a DVD that I just loaded "Fast Five" with what appears to be two identical primary movie titles, only one of them is slightly longer in duration that the other, maybe a minute. Other than that, I don't see any difference in the two movies.

Is there a reason why I'd pick one over the other? I normally just pick that first movie and unselect everything else. I guess I just want to make sure that I'm not missing something by selecting only one of the titles.

Thanks

Daryl

What are the run times? When you play the disc, what options does the native menu offer?

Could be:

Runtime
2 hr 10 min (130 min)
2 hr 12 min (132 min) (Extended Edition)

I didn't even try playing the movie to find out if there was any difference between the two, and you are correct. There is a Theatrical version and an Extended version.

There have been times when I have played the disc to try and figure out what is actually on it, but then there are times, like now, where I play the stupid card and ask before looking myself.

As always, I appreciate the help, even though I could have answered this myself.

Thanks

IMDB is my go to. Playing the disc was an afterthought.

These things happen... to everyone, sooner, or later. :D
