Luckily, I just got hired for a new job, so after I pay off some debts, I am saving up for a codefree player! This will be be reason enough to work hard and earn an honest paycheck... with which to spend on DVDs!!K

If they can release a dvd of LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT using still photos, they can release anything. It would not have to be presented as complete. The available film could be incorporated into a documentary. And YES I would want to see it just like I want to see any footage available from Welles' unfinished DON QUIXOTE.

Yeah, it's been done with Marilyn Monroe's last unfinished film and Bruce Lee's Game of Death twice (A Warrior's Journey and Bruce Lee in G.o.D.).

The President's Analyst
Hilarious James Coburn movie with some fun twists.
Well even if it does come out, I'll be surprized if it makes it in it's original theatrical form. The only vhs version I know of was a "special home video version." It was special because there was some kind of legal tangle concerning the music so they had to dub in some really bad filler and I think they even had to edit a couple of scenes.
I managed to grab it with the original music in super VHS off AMC in letterbox before they went commercial. Still would like to see a proper DVD come out.

I'd like to add:
The Bates Motel
The Peanutbutter Solution
The Garbage Pail Kids Movie
Rad
Red Sonja (R1 SE)
Halloween 6 (Producer's Cut)
But I do think that eventually Anchor Bay or someone will get their hands on The Monster Squad, too much requesting going on.

Exo Squad
Ah Exo Squad, one of the most unique and different American cartoons ever made. It will NEVER see the light of day....though I was really supprised to see Rhino releasing a Beast Wars box set.

Strongly agreed on these two:
(Would add nicely to my Charlotte Lewis possibilities... Excessive Force, Navajo Blues, Decoy and The Glass Cage would be nice, too...since we're wishing...)
One of my favorite comedies of the 40's. Still quite funny in a droll way. Veronica Lake looks unbelievably fine.

AkMedic, twin peaks all of it would be great, with first pilot episode not the movie version...
I'd love to get After Hours by Martin Scorsese one of my favorite movies of all time.

Wrestling Ernest Hemingway ( 1993 )
Robert Duvall and Richard Harris as two Miami senior citizens, who, despite having two very different personalities, become friends. Nice early Sandra Bullock performance. Deserves a Special Edition.

what I think won't make it...
Here are ones I think will not make it to DVD (hope I'm proven wrong, though):
Two People (1972): Starring Lindsay Wagner (in her big screen debut) and Peter Fonda. As the film has a lot to do with Vietnam, I doubt it will get a release, as the studios will conclude "the kids" won't be interested in it.
B.S. I Love You (1970): Again, another film so entrenced in its time (the early '70s) that it wouldn't be seen as relevant to modern audiences and would, therefore, seem to have limited appeal, despite having some brief nudity featuring TV's Isis, Joanna Cameron. Never had a legit home vid release, either (though you can get it through VSoM).
Portnoy's Complaint
Kamasutra (1969): Billed as a German film. Stars a young Persis Khambatta. Received a theatrical run in the US around 1971 through AIP. No video releases anywhere that I'm aware of.
Once (1974): A film that sort of tells the Adam and Eve story with Lost in Space's Marta Kristen as the female lead. Sort of an independent film. No known previous releases, either.
Jailbait Babysitter (1978)
Cinderella (1977): A really, really, bad film, but so bad it's funny (but probably for the wrong reasons). Remember seeing this late night on Cinemax or some such channel in the early '90s. The "sexy" scenes were really tedious, but the movie was worth it for the comedy (especially the "fairy" godmother).
Deep Throat II, the original X-rated version of the Linda Lovelace sequel. The original X-rated version was stolen or something in some mob dealings (the mob financed the original and the sequel both) and has never turned up. Released in cinemas in an R-rated version to disastrous results.
Flesh Gordon, the original cut. The production company's master print was taken in a government pornography raid. When they got the print back, all the hardcore sequences were trimmed out. Whether they were destroyed or are still sitting in the halls of the mighty are is unknown. The producer estimated in an interview that about 500 feet of footage was lost.

DVD Talk Legend
What a Way to Go! (1964)
Inexplicably never released on home video (despite years as a TV syndication favorite), this clever black comedy stars Shirley Maclaine as a simple girl who just want to live a normal life but every man she marries strikes it rich and working himself to a strange death. The husbands are a great cast: Dean Martin, Paul Newman, Robert Mitchum, Gene Kelly. The film also contains many movie spoofs interspersed throughout as Maclaine tells her story in flashbacks. You can catch a great widescreen snippet of the film on the Behind the Planet of the Apes docucmentary DVD, as Apes producer J. Lee Thompson was the director. He died recently and it is a shame the studio did not get this DVD out while he was still around to do a commentary.
