1. Harold and Kumar go to White Castle.
2. The Towering Inferno.
3. The Thomas Crown Affair (1999).
4. Barbarella.
5. Heavenly Creatures.

From the lists above, I can say Nip/Tuck is widely available, and there used to be copies of Barbarella from Magnavision. While I'm not too sure about The Thomas Crown Affair (didn't look for it, I bought the R1), I'm fairly certain all of the others have never been released on Philippine R3.

The Thomas Crown Affair (1999) and the original (1968?) were both released on Phil R3. I have both versions.

Yeah, but that's the 1960s version -- which I already have. I already saw the 90's version with Brosnan and Russo at Astro MOA a couple of years back but wasn't able to get it.

Has anyone seen a copy for sale right now because I can't seem to find one.

Got mine from Farmers' Plaza. In my case, the "hard to find" R3 releases I usually get from Cubao area -- Ali Mall ( viva basement outlet ), SM Cubao and Farmers.
