Default Top 5 non-Hollywood movies you're looking forward to on BR

I was wondering, which movies that weren't made in Hollywood/US are you most looking forward to having on Blu-ray? Here's my top 5:

1. Returner (Japan)
2. Death Note (Japan - both movies)
3. Youkai Daisensou (Japan)
4. Nihon Chinbotsu (Japan)
5. Azumi (Japan) or Dororo (Japan) ... it's a tie between these movies.

Well, pretty much looking forward to hopefully see a lot of Japanese movies on BR in the future.

That's easy. LotR was made in New Zealand. Star Wars IV and V were made in England. You'll probably say I'm cheating with those choices, so now I'll nominate a few that are truly foreign films: 'Time Bandits', all of the Akira Kurosawa films, and the Musashi trilogy.

Are you Japanese or just really love Japanese movies?

Let me think...
Motorcycle Diaries
Funny Games (Austrian)
Audition (Japanese)
Snatch (UK, does it still count?)
Das Boat (German)

The Killer, Shiri, A Better Tomorrow 1&2 and El Mariachi. The Killer isn't just my top foreign movie that I want on blu, but one of my top period that I can't wait for.

No, I just love Japanese cinema & TV

Anyway, Shaolin Soccer and Tomb of the Fireflies are very good choices as well. There's also a Shaolin Soccer TV series that might be worth getting a BR release.
