Alright, and now for the eclectic collection:

Pride and Prejudice (the BBC and new versions)

Secrets of the YaYa Sisterhood (great to watch with a daughter)

West Side Story

Men in Black ! (I see new jokes very time I watch)

Serenity (ok, I'm a geek)

Heaven Can Wait (the Warren Beatty version)...

Still thinking (no, not the name of a movie, just still pondering my choices)

I'd be concerned about how to watch these films. I'd need a generator, fuel, long extension chord dvd player, 42" TV, microwave for popcorn, butter and a very comfortable chair. Oh yeah, some Powerade Fruit Punch

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

The good, the bad, and the ugly

Godfather 1 and 2

Entire World Safari Series with Alby Mangels

Entire National Geographic Explorer Series

Entire Lonely Planet series

The generator is there, as is the fuel, and although no tv, there's a projector...

cocoa butter ok?

Oh, Chitty Chitty, I saw that 26 times when it came out. I forced every adult in my life to take me! What a great memory you sparked!

Heaven can wait is such a keeper, the original is pretty great too. Though I'd miss Julie Christie and Dyan Cannon's performance, also have you seen death takes a holliday?
