All of these have at least somewhat decent dvds already out. So I will go with the much discussed Kill Bill dvds.

Yeah, what is it with people's complete lack of ability to name a thread lately. I will go with none. I would like to see most of these get a new HD release. I would not double dip on any of those on DVD - Kill Bill maybe if the price was right and it was much changed, but I still doubt I would but it.

I'd rather have a Region 1 2-disc set of The Game.

American Beauty and Braveheart really deserve 2-disc SE's, they won BP. The Ridley Scott Christopher Columbus film 1492: Conquest Of Paradise also deserves a much needed release as a 2-disc SE, despite being announced and postponed as a barebones only release. Yep, the movie has never ever been released on R1 but was announced for a barebones release in 2004, so I guess it qualifys as much needed. I agree also about the Kill Bill films, plenty of stuff in that department to work with for a nice 2-disc set. The Jurrasic Park films deserve 2-disc SE's but a sequel might be made in the future so I wouldn't expect them to happen. Taxi Driver, I enjoy the dvd just fine but it needs a 2-disc set as well.

The one I'd like to see the most is American Beauty and only if it has the deleted scenes from the beginning and end.

American Beauty=1 disc edition is pretty good already with commentary and featurettes
Braveheart= Maybe, the only thing it really needs is an extensive making of doc
Exorcist, The= 2 editions have been released, no chance
Jurassic Park= Not unless Spielberg decided to do commentaries. 1 disc is good enough
Kill Bill, Voulme 1 and 2 (4-Disc Set Gift Set)= Long rumored
Mulholland Dr.
Nightmare Before Christmas, The
Taxi Driver= Yes, needs one badly
Terminator, The= Probably not gonna happen, 1 disc SE was pretty good. Only lacked Cameron commentary
Usual Suspects, The= Another new 1-disc SE is being released soon

The Terminator basically has a 2 disc with deleted scenes, etc. They just lumped them together and made a double sided DVD-14. I do think it's silly that this version went out of print very quickly so it's not easy to get now.

I'd buy an American Beauty 2-disc SE with features like that anytime. I'd love to see it happen!

I'd like to see American Beauty in a SE. I haven't' seen the film in a long time. It'd be cool to watch it fresh in a SE. I could stand to see Road to Perdition in a SE.

The movie that has a big spot saved om my shelf is Batman The Mask of the Phantasm. That title with "Special Edition" after it would have me running, money in hand, to the store.

With the option to watch the deleted scenes WITHOUT the commentary.

I would say Braveheart, Terminator, True Lies and Rollercoaster. I know the last one isn't truly really worthy of a special edition but I would like to see it anyway (at least anamorphic, if possible). Okay, one more...would love to see Capricorn One given the full ten yards (also anamorphic!).
