[samdaman94]

Good list! Really looking forward to some of those titles

[McClane29]

Nice idea to compile this list. Films from the 250 that I am most eager to see on blu-ray are:

5. 8.9 Pulp Fiction (1994)
20. 8.7 Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) [Basically the original trilogy]
38. 8.5 American Beauty (1999) [UK Release]
40. 8.5 Taxi Driver (1976)
154. 8.1 Finding Nemo (2003)
161. 8.1 Scarface (1983)
182. 8.0 The Incredibles (2004)

Releases like Inception, Kick-Ass and Toy Story 3 are obviously going to get a blu-ray release so haven't include them here.

[samdaman94]

I'm looking forward to Pulp Fiction the most

and Treasure of the Sierra Madre, I love that film TOO much.

[freddiecarr]

I would like Schindlers list, finding nemo and the Studio Ghibli films

Off topic, the Shawshank redemption is a good film, but the top film of all time?? really?

I've seen it a few times and i like it but I wouldnt rate it so high.

[groundgamer]

Cool idea! I'm really looking forward to Pulp Fiction, Psycho, Taxi Driver and the Alien Anthology the most.
