Will there be a 3rd Marilyn Monroe box set?

Has anyone heard of any news of a 3rd Diamond Collection of Marilyn Monroe films? Possibly could include:

We're Not Married
Let's Make It Legal
O. Henry's Full House
Love Nest
AS Young As You Feel

Wouldn't a box set have to have movies people have heard of?

I don't think many people heard of Niagra or Monkey Business but they still came out with those. Marilyn fans know the movies that she's been in.

I would love another box set of MM titles. I liked the 2nd Fox set so much better than the 1st. I wonder what studio has the rights to her other unreleased titles?

I'm using me as the measure here. Not a big follower of MM, but I could hardly help running into both those titles over the years. But even they haven't been enough to get me to buy the second set (after enthusiastically buying the first one) yet given what else you're paying for.

However I've never even heard of any of the titles you proposed for a third set so I have a feeling it might only appeal to real strong MM fans. And if Fox has even contemplated it, they probably have also projected out the sales of that third set given the slope of the sales of the first and second ones.
