Default The Old "You're Stranded on a Desert Island Thread"

OK, we've all done this before surely but here is the question. Say you are stranded on a desert island (think Tom Hanks in Castaway) but on this one you had a TV, a CD player and an never-ending supply of electricity. You can pick 5 CDs and 5 movies, that's it. What would they be? Double LPs count as 1, however The Godfather trilogy counts as three movies. You get the idea hopefully.

"Freak Out" by the Mothers of Invention is like no other album ever made. I love it. I still have the copy I bought when I was in high school.
