Damn I hope Greed finally makes it, but African Queen is a must. Voted for both of those. Love that the number one selling set is The Thin Man Collection and the number one person search is for Cary Grant. I'm going to look through their archive for other films I want to see.

Nice, I looked up a hand-full but most had zero votes. Their site seems kind of slow right now so I'm gonna try again later.

I voted for It's Love I'm After. One of the funniest movies I've ever seen.

I heard that African Queen is being restored so my vote went for Greed because AQ will inevitably be released.

I voted for a bunch of westerns, El Condor, Rio Conchos, Broken Arrow, Battle at Apache Pass and Geronimo ( Chuck Connors ) plus a couple of Jerry Lewis movies , Who's Minding the Store? and It's Only Money. And Vincent Price's The Conqueror Worm.
