Same here except for Firefly. I loved that show.

And lest anyone think we're threadcrapping, I am happy for everyone of you that has your wanted titles on that list, it's just that my life is easier with that many fewer titles I have to convince my wife I need. (Did that make any sense?)

The only one on that list I'll definitely be picking up is Legally Blonde 2.

I hope they release some more episodes from the newer Outer Limits series.

I reported Stargate SG-1 Season 4 to Gateworld earlier today. They've already got my tip up.

And the only other title I'm interested in is Escape from New York - SE

I will bet all these will be pan and scan. Tjhey released bREAKIN 2 pan and scan, didn't they? I hate to lose out on all the extrsa dancers on the left and right, and I will probably get dizzy seeing the camera move fast left and right when they dance, so I passed. Hopefully a better studio (are you listening Anchor Bay
) do these justice. I pray they will.

8/5 - , Flamingo Kid,



10/7 - Silkwood, ., Impulse,

11/4 - , Custer of the West, Duel in the Sun, Hell in the Pacific, Junior Bonner, Too Late for the Hero



Anchor Bay already released thesxe awhile back, they are OOP so you better dump them at ebays, as i've seen them go pretty high. However, I will hang on to mine, can't imagine MGM doing a better job, plus hate to have them release a full screen version the last minute, then I would be out of my widescreen edition from Anchor Bay. MGM is just too inconsistant.

Glad to see they're finally releasing some Bergman.
I think they are available in Japan as a boxed set.I saw them,but not sure about the titles,as Japanese usually change a movie name.They even renamed Equlibrium to Rebellion

they didn't release breakin' 2: electric bugaloo. they don't own the rights to it, but yes that is done in p&s. though i don't know if it is out yet. and way to have some optimism about them being in normal anamorphic glory.

In order of preference I liked "Arabian Nights", "Canterbury" and then "Decameron". "Arabian Nights" is IMO the lavish of the three with great Middle Eastern locales and the most sexually explicit.

MGM DID release Breakin 2, and it was pan and scan.

knew it was p&s (as i posted). mgm DIDN'T release it (release is next week). and as for it being mgm, it was discussed in this thread that 1 and 2 were possibly from different studios, which led me to believe that it wasn't mgm.

Pretty lackluster if you ask me. Escape From NY SE is the only one on the list that'll make it to my shelf.

Um.... If you go to DDD you will see the MGM logo on the top of Breakin'2.....

Another studio may have put it out, but the rights can always be transfered.

You were correct that is was not out yet though.

People are nervous because MGM is starting with quite a few P&S releases, and they are putting out quite a few movies people have been waiting for, and most if not all of us want WIDESCREEN.

I am still gathering support to have MGM reconsider Remo Williams being released in Foolscreen!

If that list is accurate, I'll definitely be getting Fargo, The Sure Thing, and probably Escape From New York, and possibly Valley Girl. Not sure about the others, but there are some that are mildly tempting.
