If we're limiting this to DVDs, I believe you're right. On laserdisc, however, Criterion has released "Akira" and at least one classic animation compilation (shorts, not films though, IIRC).

Some of my choices are already realeased with great DVD's but I think they fit into Criterions definition of "a continuing series of important classic and contemporary films on DVD" quite nicely.

1) Spirited Away or anything by Miyazaki
2) Anything from Jim Henson
3)The Wire The Complete Series (perhaps cut without the opening and closing credits to make it more like one long film...and alot more special features then what we get on the season sets)
4) Crash (already been suggested)
5) Harold And Maude (Also already suggested)
