Life of Brian for me.
I can probably recite each and every Criterion I owned, and name the month (and year, of course) when each was purchased. Life of Brian was September 2001.

DVD Talk Platinum Edition
Silence of the Lambs for me, which was the 3rd DVD I purchased (after pre-ordering the Army of Darkness 2-disc set and ordering the A Nightmare on Elm Street box). I think I ordered it from reel.com, but I'm not sure.

Silence of the Lambs - one of my first DVD's even. I had never watched the film, didn't know what a Criterion was and the list goes on and on...
Bought the movie, loved it and found out about two months later that they was no longer makin' them - and I had no idea why.

I bought three at the same time:
Grand Illusion (Renoir/1937)
The Passion of Joan of Arc (Dreyer/1928)
The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Kaufman/1988)
My count currently stands at 100 (with 10 on order, and 9 on my Wish List).

DVD Talk Limited Edition
1st: Robocop
2nd: Chasing Amy
The only two Criterions in my collection
I remember wanting Robocop CC because of the uncut version, but the Best Buy i worked at only ever got 1 at a time in. I also remember saving a good $10 on it with employee discount...which is odd for a DVD that was only $35.

My first Criterion was Rushmore. Eventhough I paid something like $32 for it back in the day, it was worth it.
