I really need to get around to watching Casablanca. That and Gone with the wind is another I'm embarrassed about.
Yeah, both are important to watch. Not really sure what Zeta is trying to say with the above, but its an angle that hardly gets focused on.
Another good one is Seventh Seal, a little hard with the acting in some areas, had a play like feel but didn't pace as well as it could or should have. Still a great film.
Yeah. Seventh Seal is film 101. I think I literally watched it for a 100 level film class at some point. It’s like Chaplin’s The Kid or whatever. Core cinema, fundamental. It has to be seen if you take movies seriously.

Willow. I have it on Laserdisc, two copies. I have it on DVD one copy. I have on Blu-Ray and 4K one copy each. I also have it on digital.
What i don't have is VHS and I'm not inclined to get it on VHS.
I have the novelization. I don't have the very excellent soundtrack by James Horner, but I did listen to it on youtube.
I also have Goldeneye on VHS and Laserdisc, I no longer have the DVD. But it's in the mail with the other 20 007 films proper before Daniel Craig. And pre-Lowry. All Special Edition DVD. I have a plethora of the Connery 007 releases on Laserdisc.
Indiana Jones as well i have pan and scan and letterbox and Japanese, Korean and Hong Kong releases mix and match.
If I like a film I will buy more than one release like with Forbidden Planet, I have the Criterion but I also have the Japanese release. I'm also hoping that blu-ray is followed up with a 4K release.
I also have the Time Machine on more than one format. I still would like the Japanese laserdisc for the mono mix.
It's only the same format, but I have Goldeneye on DVD in the attache case collection, the "007" collection (when you place all movies side by side in order, they make up a large 007 logo), and an early ~1997 Japanese DVD (same as the first USA release but with japanese menus; the important distinction is that it's region 2 so it works on european players).

On a related note, I wish Capcom could somehow re-release the Willow arcade game. Used to love that game. Of course, I'm sure the licensing is way expired on that, but a man can dream . . .
I just realized I've had a bunch of different copies of Ghostbusters too.
First I got the 2-disc set in the slime green packaging, which I sold and bought the earlier singles instead because they had more bonus features, then I got the blu-ray, then I got the blu-ray bundle with the sequel, then I got the steelbooks and finally the 4K ghost trap box set. That's...six?? And apart from the DVD singles which I can't actually remember if I gave them away or not, that's at least four copies still in my possession.
Clash of the Titans I have on laserdisc, and on blu-ray. I may or may not have the DVD. I read the novelization quite recently.
We used to have the VHS I assume it was thrown out by my brother with most of the tapes we had. He saved the original tape ghostbusters for some reason. It is worth like 5 bucks. Was 80 dollars I think when new in the 1980s.
I guess I could have the 7th Voyage of Sinbad I have that on several formats. Jason and the Argonauts as well.
The First 9 Star Trek features and not Nemesis because that was on DVD. I know this one is hated but I have it on multiple Attack of the Clones. VHS, DVD and Blu-Ray/ 4K.
The Star Trek letterbox VHS 1-6 was the first video release I paid a hundred dollars for. When it first came out. In those days laserdisc players were outside my price range and so were laserdiscs. I could go into Sam Goody or Suncoast and look with desire upon the Star Wars the Definitive collection but not take it home.
