Which films would you release if you were Criterion?

DVD Talk Legend
A couple more I thought of:
The Year My Voice Broke
Flirting. (Anything to get rid of this AWFUL cover. Those involved should be ashamed of themselves.)

My choices:
Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (Peckinpah)

Until the End of the World (279m cut; Wenders)
The Spirit of the Beehive (Erice)
Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (Oshima)
The Butcher Boy (Jordan)

DVD Talk Ultimate Edition
By far my #1
Dumb & Dumber
Then again, the commentary would probably consist of BS "There's my mailman, that lady does my laundry, I went to high school with that extra."

I'll add another vote for Jean de Florette/Manon of the Spring, please oh please.
Also, how 'bout
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Othello (Laurence Olivier)
Wise Blood
The Shooting Party
Last Holiday (Alec Guinness)
Our Man in Havana (AG again)
Kafka (honorary AG listing)
One Day in the life of Ivan Denisovich
That'll do for now, thank you.

As for perennial fanboy favories The Game and Bottle Rocket,

Any of the full-length Three Stooges movies
Any of the "Beach" movies that starred Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon
