What will be your next upgrade from LD to DVD?

A Night at the Opera was the last DVD I bought that I already owned on Laserdisc and Star Wars will be the next, though they are not exactly the same movie as gone over and over in other threads. I keep the laserdiscs anyway regardless of the film on LD. My copy of Night at the Opera for instance has a cool photo gallery among other things the DVD is missing and I still have my Shindler's list LD limited edition set next to the DVD gift set.

I haven't viewed the widely available (Lion's Gate?) release that comes up on DVDpricesearch, but it can be had from a number of retailers in the $9.00 range. Not sure about the specs or extras on it.
EDIT: I popped my copy of the Artisan dvd release of Invasion of the Body Snatchers(1956) in last night to have a look at the transfer, and it was not nearly as good as I had thought; guess my memory is fading with age. The print used for the transfer was really rather dirty; I have not seen the other release, but I would give it a try first if you are still looking to replace your laserdisc.

Looks like it will be the Star Wars Trilogy. Most of my LD's have been released on DVD now. I think I'm down to a couple Disney features and a WS Timecop I'm still waiting for.
