I know they aren't huge titles, but if Warner can release Gymkata and Night of the Lepus, they can surely make room on the schedule for these old favorites of mine.

No Time for seargents came up last year, and they said they were working on it. Warner also released a suncoast exclusive Little Rascals disc with four shorts on it. You got it when you bought King Kong.
I imagine they will show up on various disc as special features.

I'm sure the answer will still be that there are no plans, but at least one question that is worth asking every year is the status of that lost Bill Murray/Dan Aykroyd feature that played at some film festivals and has never been released on DVD. I forget the name, though.
As an unrelated note, I like how "DVD" is a spelling error on this DVD forum.

I hope someone will ask why "Hooper" has never been released in widescreen. That is one title that is screaming to be redone. It was a pretty big film in its day back when Reynolds was king of the box office.

They made it pretty clear that they aren't in charge of new releases and their extras, or the budget release double/triple feature disc.

2008? And not a moment too soon either. Just when HD will be the new mainstream. These clowns have had 10 years to get this thing together (and find the best possible elements from up in the attic) and now they are saying 2008? hmm...nothing like a 11 year plan. There is no excuse for this whatsoever.
