Anyone know who has the rights to The Crying Game? Is it still Lionsgate? The DVD is out of print now and I wasn't sure whether it was still worth ordering that.

Maybe with the recent surge of Newmarket films being released by Lionsgate, a Whale Rider Blu-ray might be in the pipes. I'd be front-and-center for that one. :fc:

It's an unlikely candidate for a HD upgrade, but I'd really love a Blu-ray of Parallax View.

- Dances With Wolves - extended edition, US release
- High Plains Drifter
- Pulp Fiction (US release)
- The Crow (US release)
- That Thing You Do (with the extended version of the film, too)
- Almost Famous (US release)
- Singles

Looking back on my list, I've had two that came out this year since my original post - Back To The Future & Rocky Horror - and one more that's coming out next month (Dances With Wolves - extended edition, US release), and another in February (Moonstruck) but I'm still waiting on the rest.

Now that the holiday's are upon us, and I've been wanting to watch some themed movies, I also wanted to add...

- Scrooge (Albert Finney musical)
- Scrooged

If you have a region-free player, there's an Italian disc, reviewed here.

I'd like to get the remaining Coen Brothers movies on Blu-ray. Hopefully when True Grit is released there will possibly be some tie-ins.

A proper transfer of "Mr. Holland's Opus" would be pretty sweet.

Disney Titles You're Anticipating For Release
 
I have been really impressed with the Disney BD's that I've purchased/received lately. Sleeping Beauty and Beauty and the Beast are by far the best I've seen.

I am hoping for a BD release of The Little Mermaid (with tons of extras/bonus features and ridiculous packaging options close to what Snow White got... did anyone see the Limited Edition Collector's Set?) and Aladdin. Anyone else have any Disney titles they would like to see released on BD?

Jurassic Park was mentioned early in the year for a November release but we never heard anything about it. Hopefully we won't have to wait for an anniversary year. Will be a day 1 purchase for me.

I've completely cooled to Star Wars. As someone who saw the original in 1977, I've always had an appreciation for the series and loved taking my son to see the SE's and prequels when they were released. However all the changes to his "original vision" have left me disinterested in getting and future versions. Every step Lucas takes seems to be a step backward. That can happen when a guy has an idea becomes a big hit and he starts believing his own press about what a genius he must be.

I'm looking for the following titles : Sunset Boulevard , Singin In The Rain , Whatever Happened To Baby Jane to appearing on Blu Ray! I'd love to see I'm No Angel and the other Mae West titles on Blu Ray too but i'm not holding my breath on that one!

PopcornBandit 01-07-11 07:54 AM

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 
I'm probably one of few people here who would love to own Ready To Rumble on blu-ray. It is one of my favorite comedies ever.

I don't suppose there's any word on a BD release?

There was a rumor that this was in the works, but it looks like Paramount has little interest in releasing any catalog titles.

I like to see Sony release Das Boot with both theatrical and director's cut.

SINGIN' IN THE RAIN and WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE are apparently coming from WB this year. SUNSET BLVD, much as I'd love to see it, will probably not happen unless Paramount decides to do a Billy Wilder Blu set (along with SARBINA and STALAG 17), or Criterion licenses it/them.
