    I've built a decent domestic collection, but we just watched a foreign flick and I forgot how much we enjoy them.

    One of our Favs was Seven Saumari, so I'm going to pick-up that DVD.

    Other Suggestions?

    Trigun

    I'm sure I messed up the spelling on some of those, but I enjoyed them quite a bit.

    (I know they are all series, but I just think of them as 6+ hour movies :)
