This is fantastic news!! I really like 12 Monkeys as well, but I doubt I'll upgrade it.

Its supposed to come out next year. Its about Stiffler's little brother going to band camp or something.


I wonder if 12 Monkeys is just a new transfer? Its already anamorphic and I can't imagine improving much on the extras it already has.

Excited about The Jerk and Casino

12 Monkeys, Casino and Big Lebowski! Oh yeah!

And Back to the Future would be just the fixed version of the previous release correct?

Just read up on this. Thanks.

Should be interesting since there is a rumor that an SE version is coming out at the end of the year. So this kind of sounds like there is going to be one.

Some good stuff there [Casino, Deer Hunter, Sting, Big Lebowski, 12 Monkeys, To Kill a Mockingbird {but no Blues Brothers}], but I wonder how they can make Back to the Future even more special than it already is. I think it'll just be a single disc of the trilogy version like the Godfather.

I also find it odd that Apollo 13 is absent, since it is already confirmed for release next year.

I would expect CASINO to be released around the time when MGM releases its Scorsese box set.

I am looking forward to the special edition of To Kill A Mockingbird and the Anniversary edition of Coal Miner's Daughter.

In case my sarcasm detector isn't working...
Careful about blind buying this one, you'll either love it like my wife, or want to take a Louisville Slugger to it like I did.

And where the hell is MST3K: The Movie special edition?
