Poltergeist
Mongol
Wall-E
Planet of the Apes (maybe)
Dark Night

I'll probably have some impulsive buys, but generally speaking 2008 has been somewhat underwhelming.

    I got this as one of my free B-D selections when I bought the PS/3. I had my doubts since I don't much listen to "classic rock" much less watch concert videos. But this 32-year old (!!) movie on Blu-Ray seems like it was made yesterday and that is really really freaky and it makes a really good case for having a sound system that's equal to the video.

      Great band.
      
      Great music, played by musicians on fire.
      
      Great filmmaker in Martin Scorsese.
      
      The Band's music is "classic" within the true meaning of the word, not its bastardized commercial appelation on snore radio. Music is "classic" because it's good, it's honest and it still makes that key emotional connection with listeners.
      
      Good films do the same thing, and TLW is a good one!
