Default If You Were Stuck on a Deserted Island...

If you were stuck on a deserted island and isolated from the rest of the world for a long time. And this deserted island happened to have a 1080p flat screen TV and a blu-ray player. What 10 Blu-ray's "IN YOUR COLLECTION RIGHT NOW" would want to have with you. And while watching these movies you need food and drinks right? So what "1 FOOD & DRINK" would you want to eat/drink everyday on this island.

You can change your list at any time.

My 10 Blu-ray movies in no order:
- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban UE
- The Dark Knight
- Lord of the Rings EE trilogy set
- The Girl Next Door
- Signs
- Step Brothers
- Back To the Future trilogy set
- Clerks 2
- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone UE
- Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets UE

... The Social Network would be another one I would really want to have.

1 Drink:
Mountain Dew BAJA BLAST

1 Food:
California Sushi Rolls w/ Sriracha and Eel Sauce

Putting trilogy sets in there is kind of cheating.

8 1/2
The Seventh Seal
Taxi Driver
Apocalypse Now
Breathless
Eyes Wide Shut
Bridge On The River Kwai
Paths of Glory
2001 A Space Odyssey
A Clockwork Orange

It was tough to pick through my favorite directors catalog, but this is my list.


Edit: If it allows boxsets here is my list
Stanley Kubrick boxset (I just cheated 8 extra movies into this island)
Paths of Glory
8 1/2
The Seventh Seal
Taxi Driver
The Godfather
Bridge Over the River Kwai
Apocalypse Now
UP
Scott Pilgrim

Cant believe I forgot about The Godfather on my original list. If I had movies I wanted from my wishlist, Id take those last two off and put Citizen Kane and Andrei Rublev.

Trilogy sets are allowed. As long as the movies are together in 1 set and not in individual cases, then that's fine.

EX:
Alien Boxset = Allowed
The new individual Alien releases = Not Allowed (unless the 3 movies fit within you Top 10 list)

You get to eat and drink as much as you want, but it has one food and drink item only. Obviously there would be water on this Island in certain places, so along with water you're allowed one other drink.

Ah, the old "desert island" question...
Well, that "right now" is an important stipulation, as the STAR WARS SAGA will certainly steal a spot when it's released (and possibly Jurassic Park as well). But as of right now:

Battlestar Galactica: Complete Series
Die Hard Collection
Fight Club
Ghostbusters
Goonies
Moulin Rouge!
Serenity
Speed
UFC: Ultimate 100 Greatest Fights
(just for a change of pace)
When Harry Met Sally...
damnit! why couldn't I own the Pirates/Caribbean movies as a set?!!!

Food & Drink: Dr. Pepper and KFC (I'd prefer popcorn while watching flicks, but if I have to survive on the food, I should have some protein - even if it's deliciously, artery-clogginly greasy )

Does this island also have a 7.1 home theater system?

Here are my Top 10, that I would want right now. Ask me again and I might have a different list lol

LOST: The Complete Collection (I am on an island, so duh! )
Lord of the Rings: Theatrical (Until I get the extended in my collection )
Back to the Future Trilogy
Firefly: The Complete Series
Inception
Shaun of the Dead
Hot Fuzz
Tom & Jerry: The Golden Collection (, can't wait to watch it when it comes out but I love the cartoons and I never get tired of them)
Toy Story
Band of Brothers

Actually you can replace Toy Story with any other Pixar movie (except maybe Cars and the sequel which I haven't seen) and I would be fine with it.

Drink: Sprite
Food: Panera Bread's Mediterranean Veggie Sandwich

Are we allowed to have dessert on a deserted island?
