If you could only keep ten of your DVD box sets, which ones would you choose?
I'm sure next month I'll have to squeeze the Murnau/Borzage set in here somewhere. In order:

1. The Val Lewton Horror Collection (WB)
2. Preston Sturges: The Filmmaker Collection (Universal)
3. John Cassavetes: Five Films (Criterion)
4. Eclipse Series 3: Late Ozu (Criterion)
5. Unseen Cinema: Early American Avant-Garde Film 1894-1941 (Image)
6. Film Noir: Classics Collection (WB)
7. Sam Peckinpah's The Legendary Westerns Collection (WB)
8. Ford at Fox (20th Century Fox)
9. Naruse - Volume One (MoC)
10. George Melies: The First Wizard of Cinema 1896-1913 (Flicker Alley)

Just missed the cut:

The Office: Complete Series & the Special (BBC/WB), Gangsters Collection Vol. 1 (WB) and John Wayne/John Ford Film Collection (WB)

I don't even own it and I'm sure the Ultimate Matrix Collection is the most ridiculously definitive set you could own.

#1-The Pinky Violence Collection (Panik House)

#2-The Monster Legacy DVD Gift Set (Universal)

#3-Bruce Lee: 30th Anniversary Commemorative Edition (R2) (HKL)

#4-Warner Bros. Pictures Gangsters Collection, Vol. 1 (WB)

#5-The Films of Alejandro Jodorowsky (ABKCO/Anchor Bay) (Just so happened that I re-watched Fando y Lis earlier!)

#7-James Bond: Ultimate Edition Vol-3 (Fox/MGM)

#8-The Mondo Cane Collection (Blue Underground)

#9-The Essential Steve McQueen Collection (WB)

So hard to chose just ten. I'm glad I don't have to. Some favorites of mine:

- Buffy and Angel, the Complete Series (that's 2 different sets)
- Stargate: SG-1, the Complete Series
- The Marx Brothers (again, there are 2 different sets -- one collecting their Universal movies and one with their WB movies -- and they are both worth it)
- Alfred Hitchcock (you've got it -- 2 sets)
- The Godfather Trilogy (there's just one set here)
- The Universal Classic Monsters
- Rome Seasons 1 and 2
- If I wrap a rubber-band around all four James Bond Ultimate Collections, does it count as one boxed set?
- Both Charlie Chaplin sets are great, though since I'm way over 10 at this point, if I had to pick one, I guess I'd go with the first one.


I guess what I'm saying is that I'm glad I don't have to limit myself to 10 boxed sets.

The Adv. of Indiana Jones
Blade Runner: Ultimate Edition
Die Hard: The Ultimate Collection
Monty Python's Flying Circus: The 16-Ton Megaset
Sam Peckinpah's Legendary Westerns Collection
The Sergio Leone Anthology
Stanley Kubrick: Warner Home Video Directors' Series
Toy Story: The Ultimate Toy Box
Wrestlemania: The Complete Anthology

I too would also like to count my Bond collections as one box set. Either that or The Marx Brothers Silver Screen Collection.

I debated including this in my top 10, then decided the inexplicable absence of Lolita and Barry Lyndon (in SE form or otherwise) made this set disappointingly less than definitive.

Cool! This is very close to me list. So I'll give it a +1!
