The best movie released on DVD ever...
...whose title begins with Q, X, or Z is ??
I love my dvd collection, with somewhere around 400 titles, but I'm sure it pales in comparison to many of those here. Looking through it, I noticed I have no titles (not counting tv shows or 'series' dvds) that begin with Q, X, or Z.
SO?! What are the best titles released on dvd whose titles begin with Q, X, or Z?
And if you have such titles in your collection, do post! If my collection is any indication, you'll probably have the fewest of these titles than others beginning with any other letter.
Have at you!

X: Xanadu - I have always loved Olivia Newton John and yes I do love this movie no matter what others think of it.
I don't own any Q or Z movies either.

25 Shintaro Katsu "Zatoichi" films in my collection along with Takeshi Kitano's new version and the 3 (so far) TV-series releases....and I forget to mention it.....I must be getting old or maybe I need a vacation...or both. Actually, I think I just need more shelf space as most of my Zatoichi titles are buried behind other stuff.....out of sight, out of mind.

wow. good suggestions guys. i totally spaced on zatoichi as well, but it's one of those things i plan on collecting but can't fathom how exactly.
a lot "z" movies i've never even heard of there.
and x-men would be in my collection if i wasn't holding out for some sort of uber-collection.

Z (indeed as mentioned above)
Zelary: the nearly 3-hour Czech love story!
Zorba the Greek: arguably Mr.Quinn's best role ever (La Strada considered)
Q:
Queen Margot (a must for every collection)
Queen Christina (Greta Garbo)
Quo Vadis (Germany-R2)
Qui êtes-vous Polly Maggoo? (William Klein's classic film)
Querelle (Fassbinder's most controversial film)
Ciao,

I'll second Zelig. Very underrated Woody Allen.
