Most Essential Purchase?
Out of these options which would be your choice to get first? They are all movies I enjoy and want to get eventually but have to settle on only one for now.
|
LOA SB and Citizen Kane...
|
Indiana Jones
|
Godfather
|
Godfather...Even the third wasn't bad, and the first 2 are both top 25 for me.
|
Personally, I voted for BTTF, but only because of the jam-packed extras. I have all that you are seeking except for LOA (have CK).
If you don't already have it, the Die Hard Trilogy (Ultmate Collection) is a must have, IMO. Good luck! |
Godfather
|
GF Collection
|
Clearly it would be The Godfather Collection.
|
Of those given I'd go w/ Indiana Jones... that's because it's the only one of the list I have any interest in though ;)
|
The Godfather I and II are required viewing of any true fan of cinema.

i would suggest opening up a Columbia House account.
LOA:SB (as well as Citizen Kane) is available as an enrollment selection, and several of the others can be used as your fulfillments, making the cost of everything considerably cheaper. now what are the other 5 selections you should pick? :) |
Buy the one you like the most.
|
Good Burger
|
Raiders of the Lost Ark is my favorite movie of all-time. So, this poll was easy. :)
|
All good flicks but The Godfather Collection is the one I would choose. Not only a classic but essential in any collection IMO .
|
I second Good Burger, although from the choices given I'd say Larry of Arabia SB.
|
Of these listed, I would go with Indy
|
Indy and BTTF are hard to choose between. I say get both. I voted for Back to the Future because it is probably one of my favorite movies, maybe slightly ahead of the Indiana Jones movies but not much.
|
Don't forget that The Godfather is getting re-released in May with a cleaned up transfer. Godfather 2 is coming out later this year, so there will probably be another Trilogy release with the better transfers. I would wait for that and get Indy now.
|
Indiana Jones Box Set - the only one I like a lot on that list. I used to like Back to the Future but got burned out on it. I Never liked the Godfather and not a big fan of classics other than Wizard of Oz and maybe Casablanca.
|
Oh, please, you've got to be kidding with these four choices as "most essential." Where's the "None of the Above" option?
|
1.) Back to the Future DID NOT stand up well to time. I bought it on release day and sold it soon after. There was none of the pop and sparkle that I remembered. Watching it on DVD didn't feel any differently than watching it on TBS.
2) Indiana Jones is must-own, but get a good price for it. 3.) They're still screwing around with the GF trilogy. Wait. 4.) Lawrence of Arabia is an outstanding film. It absolutely kills Indiana Jones and BTTF and GF is still in the works. Plus. Citizen Kane is GREAT! Go with 4. Larry and Kane. |
