Shawshank Redemption at 72 is a crime to humanity...
It should be in the top 30 on rewatchability alone.

I'm new to Hi Def DVD's and only have a PS3 so I can only go blu-ray right now. But looking at this list, I'm gonna have to go both ways just so I can watch me some Hitchcock flicks in HD...Damn, more money to spend.

It would be really nice if some of these of the "sticky" threads would be updated. There are a number of them that haven't been updated in months. Guess it's never going to happen.

Those 3 still in black above are extremely difficult to tell. A quick look on IMDB and there's so many little studios who have had distribution rights that it's hard to tell which one has them now.
The General and Intolerance both have their theatrical ties through Sony ( The General goes United Artists --> MGM --> Sony, while Intolerance goes Triangle Pictures --> Goldwyn Pictures --> MGM --> Sony), but both also have Republic Pictures Home Video listed as a distributor, which according to what I read is owned by Paramount but had a lease with Artisan(now Lionsgate) for home video releases that was made prior to the Paramount buyout. Sophie's Choice is a little more clear, I believe it to be Universal. Nowhere on IMDB or Box Office Mojo did I see anything about Artisan being involved as is stated above.

Another cool list to maintain would be a top 50/100 guy flicks. Its seems that the driver of new technology/movies is mostly males in 20-35 range, at least thats what I keep reading in the trade magazines.
I know that Maxim and the UK Empire magazine has done a list like this. I think I might be able to find that list, I'll take a look. AFI's list I don't think covers the average joe's buying habits. That is, there are a majority of movie buyers who are not going to run out for an HD of African Queen, but will for something like Face/Off or Gladiator. Nevertheless, I think this is a cool list to be maintained. So it would be interesting to see where each studio falls into this list. I think 20th Century Fox and Warner are the studios with the most movies in the guy flicks category. Do any of you think this would be a neat list to create? If so I will find my Empire magazine list and create the post. Then we can add to it from other Guy Flicks lists out there (i.e. Maxim).

The single most important stat when dealing with this subject is how many have been released on each format. Just because one format has more films that they could possibly release some day is really meaningless as we do not know how many of those will ever come out in HD.
So at least imo the only thing that really matters is whats been released or whats been announced. Everything else becomes speculation and thats the last thing that this format war needs more of. For all we know HD in general will never get past 25-40% market share against SD DVD and if that ever is the case then I can guarntee that the films that will take the biggest hit in regards to possibly being released in HD are the older films like alot of the films on this list. I actually have nothing but respect for the AFI lists as most of the other lists like IMDb have become a joke in regards to what are the best films of all time. IMDb is nothing more than a popularity chart now with maybe the only exception being the top 50 which is still a pretty respectable top 50 list. So with that being said I certainly hope that everything on this list gets released in HD but the way things are going right now its not looking to good for some of these films ever seeing the light of day on HD.

I am also very happy to see All the President Men on there as that is one of my all time favorite films and it really is just a brilliant film. I can watch that film again and again and again and it never even starts to get old. Its also a textbook example of how to make a drama that contains more dialouge than anything else. Still Dances with Wolves being taken off that list is a huge mistake and it wouldnt surpise me one bit if it were in fact corrected somewhere down the line.

You can certainly do this over at IMDb. It allows you to look at the best films by genre, sex, decade Etc...IMDb however is not the most reliable site in regards to its best of lists. Again they are more popularity lists than anything else.
