So it looks like a lot of our readers are still buying up HD DVDs . We don’t blame them; everyone loves a cheap thrill, especially when it’s delivered in high-def.

In honor of recent developments, we decided to put together a quickie list of some of our favorite HD DVDs. Sure, we don’t expect the format to ever make a comeback, but if you’re still collecting, you might want to consider adding at least one of these to your A/V cabinet.

Low prices and the occasional Amazon deal can still be found, but overall, the best place we found to buy HD DVDs was good, old eBay. The prices listed were what we found at press time. Expect some to fluctuate, but the site does have tons of titles for under $5—some with free shipping.

The Kingdom was really good! I was actually really impressed by the movie in general.

I got my old time favourite: Terminator 2. In Full HD it is marvelous! And Spartacus is recommended as well ;-).

I would disagree with a few selections: Hot Fuzz? Zodiac?

How about mission impossible trilogy set, or The Kingdom, Italian Job, KIng Kong!!
