Okay, here's a brand-new list for your reading pleasure.
My 25 Favorite DVD Sets
Now, let's end the controversy, I've combined some things, like Lord of the Rings and The Simpsons, to avoid taking up the whole list with repeat titles, and to avoid having to rank sets that are nearly identical. And again, note the word favorite. Also, when in doubt, assume I mean the most recent and/or lavish release of a movie like West Side Story. Also, the quality of the movie did affect the rankings somewhat, but this is definitely not meant to be a list of of favorite movies. The DVD and it's features are the focus. Okay, here we go.

1. The Adventures of Antoine Doinel - Criterion Collection
2. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
3. The Godfather Collection
4. Traffic - Criterion Collection
5. The Star Wars Trilogy
6. The Simpsons Seasons 1-7
7. 8 1/2 - Criterion Collection
8. Slacker - Criterion Collection
9. Do the Right Thing - Criterion Collection
10. The Royal Tennenbaums - Criterion Collection
11. Stone Reader - Special Limited Edition
12. The Star Wars Trilogy - The Definitive Collection (Thanx JD!)
13. Fanny & Alexander - Criterion Collection
14. Ran - Criterion Collection
15. Untitled (Almost Famous)
16. Citizen Kane
17. Magnolia
18. My Own Privtae Idaho - Criterion Collection
19. Clerks X
20. Schizopolis - Criterion Collection
21. Jay & Silent Bob strike Back
22. West Side Story
23. Chasing Amy - Criterion Collection
24. Boogie Nights
25. Pulp Fiction

Remember back in the day? We used to do lists like crazy. My favorite, the Mt. Everest, if you will, of movie lists was the Top 100 Favorite Movies list. It was bad-ass. Well, John and I re-did ours last year and I've continued to update mine every few months. Here's the current edition.

Incidentally, here's the text that accompanied my original list. The note is from John; the list was originally posted on his site.

"Below is a list of my 100 Favorite movies of all time. (EDITORIAL NOTE: 101. The boy just can't do anything the same as anyone else.) Note the word "favorite", I didn't say "best" or anything else critical, just "favorite". I'd love to hear responses to this and to see others try to come up with similar lists. I have tried this before, but then they weren't in order. Also, a few movies have joined or left the list since then. You'll note that it's heavy in movies from recent years. I don't know know if that says anything other the fact that I've seen more movies recently."

"Oh, Josh. Toy Story 2 was, like, number 101. Tough luck, huh? He he heh."
