    If there are two movies it is usually a sign that there are multi-angles at work. It could be seamless branching or something else. If you use DVD Decrypter to rip the movie, you can tell it which angle to take.

    Even at 5000mb, a 130 min movie has an average bitrate of less than 5000 if it has a single AC3 5.1 audio track. I would be happy to see single movies of 7000+ if it means having a good quality encode at higher average bitrates. If I want low bitrate movies I'll buy the $2.99 Ed Wood budget films instead.
