Which is the jewel of your collection?

[Narshty]

For me, it's my special edition of Piranha - a film which I was certain would never come out on DVD, but did in an edition which is wonderful in every way, from the crystal clear picture and sound to the fact every special feature is splendidly entertaining and worthwhile. Hooray!

[Robby]

Fight CLub and Se7en R1. Two great packages. They're the two i'd pull from a burning house.

[Madm@tt]

Along with the aforementioned Fight Club & Se7en I have to add:

The Abyss
T2:UE
and all Critereon discs:D

[chris21]

Probably my Robocop Criterion and my Anchor Bay Suspiria and Opera, Ltd edition:)

[Sarai]

Leon: The Professional Version Intergrale

the finest film ever to bless a digital format

[rezabelady]

if i had to pick just one it would be my Akira SE Tin R1

[Bamse]

All my Kevin Smith films, but if I had to choose one, it would be Dogma 2 Disc SE.

[ggrant]

I dont really have any DVDs that are better than others, so I'd have to say my Buffy sets :D

[Paul Buglass]

The two I would grab when runing out of the burning house would be Contact and The Fifth Element - Superbit. I really enjoy these two.

id say my wicker man can't be beaten for packaging fight club a close 2nd
le pacte des loups french only 3 disc pretty nice as well come ta think of it

[Tob]

Prob either my Hard Boiled Criterion or my two lovely Sopranos R1 boxsets.

[CARL]

Queens greatest Flix 1&2 :)

[tezmo]

Dude, wheres my car?

[sidebog7]

After thinking about it, and going along with my response in the Citizen Kane thread, my jewel would be the 60th Anniversary Edition of Citizen Kane.

[Nirvana]

.

[Smiler]

Brazil - Criterion had it over a year and just startin to get a run on it but heck is it a different film from what I thought it was !

Fantasia - Still workin this one out, not what I remember from the pictures as a kid.

North by Northwest - Simplicity/perfection/paranoia.

[Knut]

Although the quality isn't the best I still feel that Koyaanisqatsi is one of my favourites. Although the coolest would be the french "Arnold-box" with a pic of the terminator with a blinking red eye... very nice :)

[Tristan H]

Probably my Stanley Kubrick collection, but that's cheating.

If I were to name just one then I'd say that it was Rear Window, my favourite film of all time and a very good DVD too.

[hitch_fan]

If I could choose only one it probably would be Lawrence Of Arabia.

Or maybe Vertigo.

Or maybe ...

[Daliah Lavi]

Gotta say it's The Fog - French release, 16x9 anamorphic 2:35:1 pin sharp transfer & with my Sony 735 enforced subtitles override option I can watch it in English sans subs :cool:

Daliah

[Ono]

My Crouching Tiger Superbit.



No one touches the box except for me.:D

[Spam]

My Brazil set defenitly.

Then id go back in for my Godzilla collection as most of them are oop now.

[charlie angel]

Probably Hard Boiled Criterion

[Bapapapa]

Ocean's 11

[Sneeka]

my OOP Little Shop Of Horrors... must be worth more than most dvd players now, i guess.

cracking film too :)

[SIB]

Hmmm....
Full Metal Jacket collectors box set as it is my favourtie film
AOD 2 disc edition as it's worth a small fortune
Wickerman box set as it was the coolest package ever
(I'm a BIG lad so i get to pull out 3) :D

[aprout]

Fight Club & Toy Story: The Ultimate Toy Box (both r1)

[Vinyl-Pants]

I own a lot of cracking dvds but I'd have to say the jewel of my collection is Dude Where's My Car

[McMikey]

Gotta go with clerks myself. As much as I like Smith's other films. I find myself able to watch this over and over again. Good commentary too as well as a cool music video and interesting ifnot particularly funny deleted scenes.

[urruri]

Godfather box set
The Sopranos season 1 and 2
T2:UE
Robocop Criterion
Life Of Brian Criterion

[Roberto]

T2: UE

[Gandalf]

Brazil:Criterion & Lawrence of Arabia

Paul.

[Ron Hill]

Based purely on the number of repeat viewings it would have to be the following in my collection.

The Iron Giant R1
Galaxy Quest R1
Titan AE R1
Rush: Chronicles R1


On technical merit and overall package.
T2:UE R1
Fight Club R1
The Abyss SE R1
Aliens SE R1

Good showing from Mr. Cameron there. I wonder how heavily he gets involved with the DVD releases.

[01keith]

My Criterion-

Robocop
The Rock
Life Of Brian

And my Die Hard Ultimate Collection Box Set.

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

[RichDB10]

Probably the Japanese R2 boxset of 'Blood:The last vampire'
would have to be my 'Jewel' for reasons of the price i paid for it and it's status as being long OOP.

On a level of being a 'jewel' for reasons of material content then my 'Decalogue' boxset would fit into this category.

Yep, mine would be my Die Hard boxset too.

:)

[Shakey21]

Alien Lagacy box set
Sopranos season 1 and 2 (R1 of course)

and not forgetting:

Hard boiled Criterion and This is Spinal Tap Criterion.

[deftone666]

Evil Dead 2 Ltd Ed. tin.

[danielzavitz]

tough call, probably my seven samurai criterion first edition.
but it will soon be my evil dead anchor bay limited edition case in the shape of the book of the dead!!!!
not that i'm looking forward to that or anything.

[akira9000]

The Beyond Ltd ed tin, Akira tin , Criterion Long Good Friday
and R2 Brother with Takeshi Kitano ( a really suprisingly cool film that I hadn't heard of before I got the disc )

[Ericf]

I guess it would be the French Collector's Edition 2-Disc version of Crying Freeman.

Really great design and good double DVD case. It's got a book with it too. Although I don't speak French the 2nd disc is great as well.

I do have Le Pacte des Loups 3 DVD Collector's Edition but since this movie isn't viewable yet ( no subtitles ) I cannot call it the best. It's a great package though...

Ericf

[Dan Druff]

The Wicker Man wooden box
Akira 2 disc
Robocop Criterion

[gZa]

Basically anything that I own that's OOP...

Criterion's
Seven Samurai(first pressing)
The Killer
Hard Boiled
Robocop

...and my recently acquired Crippled Avengers DVD :p

[Burger-Pimp]

My Kevin Smith Collection all signed by the man himself.

Killer CC and Hard Boiled CC - because theyre rare and are great flicks.

Sopranos Season 1 and 2 - Because its the only one of my favourite TV Series to hit Dvd (When will Seinfeld happen?).

Godfather Boxset - Godfather part 1 and 2 are my all time favourite movies.

[Sir_Talbot_Buxomley]

Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Hard On

Very rare and OOP.
