Tough question. I would have to say the top of my list for new releases is " Love Actually" . No, it is not girly, it is British. Full of great talent and wonderful humour and wit. It is a must see for all (apparently the special features are pretty good too) Other' s I can think of off hand: Schindler' s List was just released on Dvd (if you like that movie, I know I do) Mambo Italiano (no great special freatures though) Pirates of the Carribean Fight Club (has some great bonuses as well) Dogma (Collectors edition) That' s all I can think of right now for neutral titles

Rikka mentioned a few good ones. I dont think Ive seen the Mambo one tho. Dogma is debatable (I liked Mallrats and Clerks better from there collection). But heres some I watched recently: 1.Big Fish (get it asap) 2.Tha Last Samurai 3.Irreversable (French, stars Monica Balluci) 4.American Psycho 5.Half-Baked (good times comedy) 6.2004 (foriegn film) 7.Thirteen 8.Trainspotting (try and find the british import) 9.Kill Bill (duh) 10.Donnie Brasco (Johnny Depp and Al Pacino movie) 11.Scarface 12.Family Guy seasons 1-2 and 3(animated series if ya didnt know) 13.Once Upon a Time in Mexico (the whole trilogy actually- El Mariachi:spanish: and Desparado) 14.Band of Brothers DVD Boxset 15.Alien Quadrilogy 16.Panic Room 17.Taxi Driver 18.Equalibrium (a definate must have) 19.Drunken Master (Jackie Chan) 20.Ichi the Killer 21.Lost In Translation 22.Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels 23.The Transporter 24.Kalifornia 25.Infernal Affairs (Chinese - Theatrical version) 26.Bowling for Columbine 27.The Replacement Killers 28.Hard Boiled 29.A Better Tomarrow (Chow Yun Fat) 30.The Boondock Saints (hard to find but may be easier nowadays) 31.Unbreakable 32.Scary Movie 3 33.Infernal Affairs II/III 34.Akira (anime) 35.Saving Private Ryan 36.Schindler' s List 37.Childs Play 1-3 (4' s debatable) 38.Gen-X Cops 39.Gen-Y Cops (corny title i know) 40.The Italian Job ...to be continued those the more recent ones (recent in being ones that i watched recently) ** I just finished watching Infernal Affairs (foriegn release) god damn I sugest every1 find that and watch it. Its about and undercover cop whos in with the triads and a Mole in the police force. That there pretty much sums up how many twists this movie has. It is very very well done. There may be american movies with similar title try and find Infernal Affairs that co-stars Anthony Wong.** Ill give a better description when i can.

I agree with The Family Guy - that is hilarious. I was not a big fan of American Psycho, I watched it twice to make sure and it didn' t really appeal to me either time.

After i heard of the movie(about half a year ago) I don know how i missed a movie like that in theaters. And yes it is hard to find PPL who seen that movie.But that movie kicks ass. If your into Sci-fi,MATRIX or just action its a must have.
