1. The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly (SE) - My best blind-buy movie and DVD packaging is astonishing.
2. Se7en (SE) - Decent film with a great soundtrack, bonus material and packaging.
3. Fight Club (SE) - Excellent film with by far the most enjoyable soundtrack. It lacked gripping bonuses but it sounds too great.
Heh, two Fincher films...

Scratch that...
I'll replace the Monster Legacy set with the 2-Disc Sin City. I'm in the process of going through the package right now and loving nearly every second of it.

Well ... Here's my three:
* Star Wars Trilogy Box - It had everything I wanted except for a DVD-18 of the "original" Original Trilogy. The bonus disc is fantastic!!
* King Kong Collection - From the first "Action/Adventure/SFX" movie ever released to the first Harryhausen movie ... all in one box with fantastic extras!! What more could one want?
* Snow White: Platinum Edition - The classic of all classic animated adventures. Plus you get "Disney through the Decades": One of the best docus ever produced by the studio.

DVD Talk Hall of Fame
Lost In Translation - could watch it everyday
Boogie Nights - great film
Golden Girls 1-3 - yeah yeah yeah. But when I want a good laugh, I'll pop this in and let the girls excellent comedic timing take my worries away.
