My wife and I have been watching the AFI Top 100 in descending order and I figured keeping track of UHD releases would be fun. It's been a long road for some of these on blu-ray, my guess is many will never see a UHD release (physical at any rate). Would appreciate everyone's help with keeping up to date!

I only want 51 of the full 100 to come out. And of that some is a mix of stuff I want for loved ones (family, obv), and Take or Leave ones for me. I'd say I only NEED about 40 of them, and so far 11 are available... In only 3 years that is good progress. Means with the trickle nature of this format I'll end up getting most what I want within another 5-7 yrs. Can wait for the more obscure ones

Would LOVE to see Pulp Fiction get released for it's 25th Anniversary before the year is up alongside Tarantino's OUATIH home video release.

Forrest Gump is a head of All the President's Men, Modern Times, The Apartment, Easy Rider, Platoon, Goodfellas, The French Connection, Pulp Fiction, Blade Runner, Toy Story and Ben Hur, excuse me while I find the nearest washroom, I'm feeling sick to my stomach.

Yeah, this choice really hasn't aged well.

Interestingly, Forrest Gump dropped 5 places (from 71 to 76) between the original 1998 list and this updated 2007 list.

I have a hunch it'll drop further if/when AFI publishes its next edition.

[KazzPetrelli]

I thought The Godfather trilogy will be coming out soon in 4K Ultra HD

[HAL237]

Seeing The Fellowship of the Ring at #50 makes me very happy.

It’s ahead of every film below Forrest Gump, unfortunately.

I hate that they bumped Amadeus off the list when they updated it. Dunno why they didn't do another update in 2017, I guess nothing came out that they thought deserved to be included.

[KubrickKurasawa]

E.T. is on their list but no JAWS?

Oh that list is GARBAGE anyway then.

The list really needs to be updated yeah.

[Dailyan]

I'd buy 95% of these on UHD even if most of would be rebuys (I already own 68 of these).

[reanimator]

I was recently thinking that we needed the UHD version of that original list, thanks for posting.

[TXMoviebuff77]

Well I guess I can feel better knowing I own 16 movies on the list on Blu & 2 in 4K

[stvn1974]

When was this list compiled because I don't see The Dark Knight at number one?

This is an AFI list not an EW one

[Gacivory]

I own only 50 of these on Blu & 4K!

I have plan to rebuy some of these on 4K if they get released!

I never realized how many I had before seeing the thread (68).
