    Must have DVD's?

    Hi!,,

    I haven't really purchased very many DVD's as of late.
    Just wondering which DVD's that have been released in the last couple of months would be considered as 'Must Have'for anyones collection.

    Thanks,

    not sure how far back you want but starting with "Die Hard DTS" I would think
    Planet of the Apes
    Moulin Rouge
    Forrest Gump
    Pearl Harbor
    Super bit 5th Element and Desperado
    Memento
    Final Fantasy
    Cape Fear DTS
    Swordfish
    Apocolypse Now Redux

      Mark has a pretty good list there, but I'd also add:
      Terminator
      The Godfather Set
      Shrek

        I would add:

        Almost Famous; Bootleg Cut

          I'd also add any movie you actually enjoy watching There's tons of great movie out there that people love but IMO I'll buy the ones I (or my wife) will actually enjoy watching.

            Andrew,
            I'd enjoy watching the movie you took that shot from. Or was it from a magazine ? I know this isn't much help to Trevor, but hey, we're curious.

              Jeez, Andrew, my laptop screen is steaming up!


              Well, to that list of relatively recent releases I would add "Dr. Zhivago"; it's an older movie, but a true classic, in every sense of the word. The DVD release is quite good, especially considering the age of the source elements.

              An for something new and somewhat nonsensical, but a very good transfer, I hear, try "Fast and Furious". (talk about opposite ends of the movie spectrum!) That's just out today!

              Regards,

              Jon

                  I'll second Cast A Giant Shadow. An excellent film that I now have on order.Crimson Rivers is also an excellent film, along with the others David has listed.

                          To that, add the Superbit version of Desperado.

                          Not quite must have, but very worthwhile, is the Suberbit version of Gattaca.

                          -Jon

                            Desperado is Super(bit)
                            by JonMarsh
                            Watching "Desperado" brings back all kinds of memories for me, it being one of the early DVD releases, a pretty stunning one in it's time, and one I used over and over again in my early HTPC experiements, first with a Chromatic Research Mpact board, then with my Matrox 400 setup.

                            DVDs! How many "repeats?"
                            by Rock Dog
                            Is anyone else finding themselves being repeatedly stung by the "new edition" bug?

                            I must have had to repurchase 10 DVDs by now, because they've been re-released in a bigger, better, special, ultimate, collector's, director's edition.

                            It seems like my timing...
