Default What "A-List" Titles Remain to Be Released?

With the forthcoming releases of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, the Star Wars Saga, Citizen Kane, and Ben-Hur, Blu-Ray over the next few months will continue an extraordinary run of "A-List" titles that have been released on the format in recent months ("A-List" defined here as major films widely recognized as among the very best ever made). West Side Story is said to be headed Blu-ray's way in late fall, and Lawrence of Arabia almost certainly will be released in 2012 (the film's 50th anniversary), raising the question, what remains?

Here are a few Hollywood greats that come to mind:

Vertigo
Rear Window
Singin' in the Rain
Schindler's List
Sunset Blvd.
Chinatown
The Grapes of Wrath
Jaws
On the Waterfront
E.T.: The Extraterrestrial

Among the foreign classics:

The Rules of the Game
Grand Illusion
Rashomon
La Dolce Vita
Children of Paradise
The Passion of Joan of Arc
L'Avventura
The Apu Trilogy
Sansho the Bailiff
Ugetsu
Ikiru

Some titles that have been released in Region-Free Foreign or Region B Locked editions but not in North America:

Bicycle Thieves
Tokyo Story
City Lights
The Gold Rush
Andrei Rublev (185-minute version only--not the full 205-minute version that Criterion has released on DVD)

I'd be interested in your thoughts on what other truly great films still await the Blu-ray treatment.
