#52 Who framed Roger rabbit (CAV LD)
#63 The Terminator
#64 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (CAV LD)
#69 The Birds
#71 Jaws (of course…  on VHS, LD and now DVD, looking for Disco-vision version also)
#72 Night of the living dead (trouble finding this, it is in a trilogy pack, work to do…)

#91 Halloween (LD)
#100 Fantasia (on the best format CAV LD)


The third man I tried to purchase erlier but did not find it, now I know it is out there…

Some are standing out of the crowd here...  GSyren and Flyersfan and several over half 
We are all at the same age, only at different time...

Hmm, it seems like I own 16 movies on that list. It's a very weird list, though. Not too many of those movies are even on my wish list, but each for their own taste, I guess. But I would like to own at least Rosemary's Baby, Seven Samurai and The Princess Bride.

Not at all.  Just means you have better taste than most of the people who made that list.

There's no accounting for taste! I don't really get the sense of those lists - excepting to use it for these kind of threads
