WhipSilk · 12-31-2002, 06:34 PM

My five:
1. Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Rings Extended Edition -- simply a masterpiece of a DVD.
2. 8 1/2 -- one of Criterion's proudest moments, and it's a fantastic film to boot.
3. M*A*S*H SE -- there's quite a bit of repetition, but it's a beautiful image (and good sound in this problematic movie) and a bunch of great extras -- including "then and now" of most of the cast.
4. Monterey Pop Box Set -- another Criterion masterstroke, with a complete disk filled with performances not used in the original film.
5. Fight Club -- an oldie but goodie.

This is essentially the same thing I was going to do for the big 2003 Census, except with 10 choices and calculating the results. Since it's already been done, probably not worth all the work to do it, unless there's interest. Anyhow, my choices:

1) Toy Story & Toy Story 2: The Ultimate Toy Box
2) Ghostbusters: Collector's Series
3) Back to the Future Trilogy
4) Monsters, Inc.: Collector's Edition
5) A Bug's Life: Collector's Edition

Runners-up: The Godfather Collection, Star Wars I: The Phantom Menace

Avid · 01-02-2003, 02:44 AM

LBPound, I'd like to see the 2003 Cenus done, I've been looking forward to it. It is interesting to see such a large list created by DVD fans.

I'm also curious how last years top DVDs stack up against this years.
