OK, been a reasonably good year so here goes:


R1 - Star War TPM

R3 - Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

R2 - Terminator SE

R0 - Shaolin Soccer (it is R0 check the back of the box!)





The above is based on Picture, Sound, Extras and (most importantly of all) how much I enjoyed the film.



Edited cos Gladiator came out in 2000!!

i would go for..

Akira SE R1

and if i had to choose a R2 it would be..

Snow White & the Seven Dwarves CE R2

..even tho i have the R1 and it is slightly better (in terms of disc content)

Whether you like the film or not either R1,R2,R4, Star Wars Episode 1 has to win at least 1 region.

as i can't think of a better one for R4 i'll agree with that..

Star Wars Episode I R4

Surprisingly easy, this:

R1 - <I>Gimme Shelter</I>
(though a strong challenge from <I>Monty Python and the Holy Grail</I>, which I'm halfway through exploring)

R2 - <I>In the Mood for Love</I> (no contest)

R4 - <I>The Dish</I> (again, no contest)

R0 - <I>Basket Case</I>

Methinks there will be a new best R1 DVD in the next few weeks judging by how much Shrek has been hyped :)

SimonInd may like to know that <I>Suspiria</I> is R0, so he still has a R1 nomination free!

My vote would be for:

R0: I know where I'm going! (Criterion)
R1: The discreet charm of the Bourgeoisie (Criterion)
R2: The Road Home (I do have In the mood for love but haven't watched it yet...)

Don't have any R3 or R4 yet...

So far this year:

R1- Monty Python and the Holy Grail

R2 (British)- The Godfather trilogy
(European)- Les rivieres pourpres

R4- Hannibal (Bit of a cheat here, but this is still an outstanding release)

R0- Spartacus: Criterion

R1: <b>Suspiria</b> (spoilt for choice with R1s - could just have easily gone for <i>Requiem For A Dream</i> or <i>Monty Python & The Holy Grail</i>)

R2: <b>The Godfather</b> collection

I did buy a handful of R3s and a couple of R4s, but nothing deserving of a nomination...
