Buck Rogers

Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story
Dante's Peak (ok, kind of stupid, but still cool)
All Alfred Hitchcock's
Scarface
Carlito's Way
Jurassic Park
Jaws
Somewhere in Time (Cheesiest movie of all time, but Chris Reeve)
Duel
1941
American Grafitti
American Pie films
Bring it On (Eliza Dushku bein' all tough and hot)
Love Actually
Back to the Future Trilogy
Jesus Christ Superstar
The Electric Horseman
Tremors 1-4
Schindler's List
The family Man
Cry Baby
The Land Before Time
Mullholland Drive
Elizabeth
They Live
Prince of Darkness
About a Boy
Coal Miner's Daughter
Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels
To Kill a Mockingbird
12 Angry Men
Timecop
A Beautiful Mind
Babe
Erin Brockovich
Scent of a Woman
The Andromeda Strain
Death Becomes Her
Do the Right Thing
Amazon Women on the Moon
Far and Away
For Love of the Game
The Shadow
Silent Running
The Flintstones
Play Misty For Me
A Mule for Sister Sarah
Halloween II
Cape Fear

Being John Malkovich (preorder)
Shaun of the Dead (development)
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (preorder)
The Big Lebowski (preorder)
Lost in Translation (preorder)
The Pianist
21 Grams
Repo Man

Now that's just a taste, a mere TASTE of what Universal has in its vast catalog. Whatever else is going on, Universal not having anything left to put out (as some have strangely put forth) is just not remotely true.
Thought I'd update this list to see where we are. I don't think we can expect Universal to move any faster. They seem to be running out of cool things to announce until Spielberg gets onboard.
