What Superbits are you waiting for?

I check Sony's website almost daily to check for new releases. Im especially looking for Superbit releases mainly because I'm also a dts nut. I just picked up Leon and Lawrence of Arabia, but Im not buying any of their next batch. Riverdance and the others Im going to miss, sorry everyone who likes these.

Anyway, I keep hoping we will get some Sony gems on a Superbit release so here it go's.

Godzilla (remake)
Last Action Hero
Glory
Spiderman
Mary Shelly's Frankenstein
Ghosts of Mars
Starman
Christine
Immortal Beloved
The Messenger
Night of the Living Dead (Savini)
The Seventh Sign

The first four are already available or coming to Japan so I dont see why we wont get these four soon in Region 1. The others Im dreaming about, especially the John Carpenter flix. I was jumping up and down to get Vampires Superbit, now Im waiting on the other JC titles from Sony. Immortal Beloved, The Messenger and Night of the Living Dead I think would rock with a dts track.

Are there any others that Im missing?

The Messenger - to hear this film in DTS-ES sound would be sweet.

Probably not wrong with that choice. But do the Superbits use dts-es? Isn't there a difference?

no, but since both Besson's Fifth Element (features a DTS-ES track on it's German Special Edition DVD) and The Messenger, French DVD have DTS tracks one could only hope that Columbia TriStar home video could implement DTS-ES discrete DVD's in the near future. (please?)

I'm still waiting for LES MISERABLES. I can't believe they pressed the wrong movie on the disc.

The Korean Superbit will play just fine a region 1 dvd player.

Hmm .. I wonder about that one. I love the movie but based on what I saw on my current DVD I wonder whether it would benefit from superbit or highdef.

I'm guessing that the film would need to be worked on before we would see any improvements - at least to the visuals.
