This needs to be posted in the movies forum.

Anyways, I would like to see Caddyshack, but it's on HD-DVD.

The first movie in my mind was "Scarface"...

classics mean different things to different ages and can be an objective question lol

There was a "golden age of hollywood". I always thought of it being associated with classics. If you love movies keep digging deeper in time. You will likely be impressed at what you see.

Please one day watch Snow White, Fantasia, Dumbo, Cinderella, 101 Dalmations, Peter Pan...or anything else made while Walt Disney Sr. was alive and then compare to more contemporary films.

All of Hitchcock movies but Universal owns most of them.

North by Northwest I would love to see on Blu. Thats a warner release.

Bogart is my favorite of all time. I'll take anything by him.

To Have and Have Not
"You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve? You just put your lips together and blow."
Bogie fell in love with a young Bacall during the film. It flows over onto the screen.

The Maltese Falcon
Peter Lorre's distinctive voice met the perfect character. Bogie defines detective Sam Spade.
