Ah, how'd I forget that one? Best Who DVD ever! :righton:

Very deserving of a mention are the two Dick Van Dyke show releases -- Seasons 1 & 2. Two incredibly classy DVD packages, befitting the show.

Brian Wilson "On Tour"
Pink Floyd (documentary) Dark Side Of The Moon
Monty Python's "The Meaning Of Life"- special edition

Great year for DVD.

Too many keepers to list but I shall mention the one biggest for me.

The Kids Are Alright...great to have this one finally on DVD.
And they did a great job on the transfer.

As JohnG pointed out, there are too many. But, here are a few stand-outs:

Led Zeppelin
Finding Nemo
LOTR - TTT (Extended Edition)
Alien Quadrilogy (I think boxed sets should be included)
Adventures of Indiana Jones
The Lion King

[PsychFan]

D'oh! Forgot that one. One of the best of the "Classic Albums" documentaries, IMO.

I wish I hadn't put The Concert for George on my Christmas list. Now I have to wait to see it ... I am really looking forward to it.

I really enjoy the Rolling Stones "Four Flicks" DVD set. Maybe I feel hope watching 59 year olds rock out! They're still great and it looks like they are still having fun performing.:thumbsup:

A great set, but it came out in the late fall of 2002, IIRC.
