DVD Talk Hero - 2023 TOTY Award Winner
After reading everyone else's replies, I have to add The Game and A Fish Called Wanda to my original short list as well.
Also, Moonstruck.

I'm waiting on the following:
Goodfellas
Sleepers (early WB disc...dang flipper...got stolen during the raid of my first collection and I've yet to replace it...)
I am sure there are plenty others out there, but these two jump to mind...
Oh, yeah, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen: Criterion Collection and Fisher King: Criterion Collection would be nice.
I'd like to see a re-release of Pasolini's The Gospel According to St. Matthew b/c it is a great film, but the only version released is now OOP and goes for a hefty sum...

I have the bare bones Shawshank, but would replace it in a heartbeat with an SE.

For me, the main one I'm holding out for is John Ford's classic The Searchers. A film of this magnitude deserves a two-disk release with lots of goodies (and no snapper).
