Worst Case Scenario Poll: Which of These Random, Horrific Titles Will Arrive on DVD?

Let's face it. Blade Runner took, I don't know, forever to get its dues as a special edition, and movies like The Monster Squad took years to arrive on DVD, yet DVD collectors have been subjected to reissues of movies claiming to be "unrated" that were already more than ample with their delivery in R-rated movies, and lest we forget how it took six titrations of RoboCop to get the right version on DVD. And that's not even factoring in some other double standards with TV shows, like how the complete run of Full House will soon be available on DVD, yet dozens of shows leagues better (re: EVERY incomplete show released on DVD) have been altogether dropped by studios for poor sales and other unknown causes.

So now I ask this: while we're still waiting for that True Lies SE, Night of the Creeps, The African Queen, Lost Highway, the theatrical cut of Grindhouse, the Criterion release of The Game, full season sets of The Wonder Years and Batman, and every other DVD release that people want that are seemingly not coming anytime soon, which of the following "worst case scenario" DVD releases is most likely to happen? If you want, post your own horrible ideas!

Damn it. I wrote in "other" because I was going to say Golan-Globus films (I'm actually still hoping to see Detective School Dropouts someday) and I totally missed the Cannon option.

A few vintage Cannon flicks (not on R1 DVD) I'd sure like to see in the set:

Young Warriors
Enter the Ninja
Ninja III: The Domination
P.O.W. The Escape
Exterminator 2
