Star Wars Trilogy Boxset [VHS] [1977]
1.  Star Wars Trilogy Boxset [VHS] [1977] VHS Mark Hamill
The list author says:
  "The original masterpieces of escapism and adventure. If i had to choose 1 it would be the Empire Strikes Back for its darker theme. The final duel would be best scene. Prequal trilogy NOT INCLUDED."

The Godfather Trilogy (5 Disc Box Set) [DVD]
2.  The Godfather Trilogy (5 Disc Box Set) [DVD] DVD ~ Marlon Brando

  "From the beginning wedding scene you know this is going to be a classic.Some of the best performances you will ever see from any hollywood actor. Only beaten by Star Wars due to its pesimistic nature."

3.  The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Two Disc Theatrical Edition) [DVD] [2001] DVD ~ Elijah Wood

4.  Pulp Fiction (2 Disc Collector's Edition) [DVD] [1994] DVD ~ John Travolta

5.  Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels [DVD] [1998] DVD ~ Jason Flemyng

Mission Impossible [1996] [DVD]
6.  Mission Impossible [1996] [DVD] DVD ~ Tom Cruise
The list author says:
  "The best espionage film ever. Forget Bond for now, this is the real thing. An immensely satisfying film of one man against the corruption and uncertanties of the secret world around him. MI2 was crap."
£4.99   Used & New from: £1.09
3.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (22 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

7.  Goldeneye [Special Edition] [DVD] [1995] DVD ~ Pierce Brosnan
