what will never be available on DVD, but is on laser disc?
I just got a laser disc player, and I am wondering what is out there on LD, but is unavailable now and for the near future. I know Star Wars OT and Blade Runner (Non-DC). BUt what else should I look into getting?

and yeah, Howard the Duck - if I only had 100+ to waste it would be mine.
Some people like some of the Criterion commentaries etc.
I know I have the Killer and Hard Boiled CC LD and they cost about $20 vs buying the DVDs for $100+

Oh, no LD and player (in general) are no longer produced. However, there is still an active used market. I did not get LD until early this year. Bought a huge auction with an elite player and 80 disc. Then bought several more disc. Buying in lots, you end up with alot of good stuff relatively cheap. I buy some lots for movies I like but do not feel compelled to spend a great amount of money on.
