Brazil: The Criterion Collection would be high on my list.

Terminator 2: Judgement Day--first use of chapter selections with parts of the film playing inside.

Wasn't it also the first commercially available RSDL disc? (Release date was 9/24/1998) That would be an even bigger deal.
I was going to bring up Apollo 13 which was released on 2/24/98 but upon further searching I found out that the original release of T2:Judgment Day was actually (according to DVD Profiler at least) 10/21/1997 so it just might be the first RSDL DVD.
