what are some of the best movies on dvd as of today...and yesteryear?

Answer 1

Titanic, Star Wars, E.T. , Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, Independence Day, Home Alone, Men in Black, Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Pirates of the Caribbean, Forrest Gump, The Sound of Music, An Inconvenient Truth, Inside Man, Little Miss Sunshine, Wedding Crashers, Thank You for Smoking, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Twister, Ghostbusters, Beverly Hills Cop, Batman, Spiderman, X-Men, & Superman Returns

Answer 2

That would depend of just what you mean by "yesteryear"
Me...I'm Partial to Film Noir and certain actors/actress of "yesteryear" as you put it....
Although I have to admit that MOST movies of the last, oh 15, maybe even 20 years have just been re-makes & sometimes even re-makes of re-makes....If its not blood & guts, there is generally hardly anything that it too original.....
Example ~ You've Got Mail was a re-make of a Movie that James Stewart & Jean Arthur did called "The Shop Around the Corner" only updated....
Hitchcock was a GENIOUS pure & simple from begining to end....
I would suggest that if you are really interested in movies look at TCM's library & guild ~ they will often tell you manything about the film that might peek your interest...

Answer 3

I would say in the last few years, Lucky number Slevin, Domino,
Tomb Raider, Die Hard Trilogy, X-men 1,2,3 Back to the future trilogy, Indiana Jones Trilogy, Aliens, Con Air, Air Force One, Turbulence, Top Gun, Casino, Heat, Scream Trilogy, Shrek 1&2
Finding Nemo, Casablanca, Gone with the Wind, Miracle on 34th St., The Santa Clause 1,2,3. Star Wars all 6, Star Trek Movies,
The Godfather Trilogy, Scarface, City of Angels, Fast and the Furious all 3, Drop Zone, I could go on and on but here are some I think make my top 50 of the movies from past and present.

Answer 4

I just finished watching Black Hawk Down on DVD. The movie was incredible - one of my favorite war movies. There weren't plenty of extras - just "On the Set" lasting 24 minutes, but it was a good extra.

Also MI:3 was pretty good as well.

Answer 5

I like "Heat" a lot. Long but good. Another one of my favorites, (which isn't really a movie but a documentary), is "Down the Rabbit Hole". Really good about alternate realities and metaphysics. My favorite funny movie is "Cable Guy".
