I just mentioned this in the Lake Placid thread, but Alligator and Them! really need to get the blu ray treatment (and some TLC needs to be applied to these films, like the care Lifeforce received from Shout).

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

The first two "Before _" movies

A Simple Plan

From The Earth To The Moon (HBO Miniseries)

Heaven Can Wait (1978) - My All-Time favorite film

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

"MouseHunt" with Nathan Lane, Lee Evans and Christopher Walken definitely needs a Blu-Ray release.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

We need an After Hours Criterion three years ago.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

I'd love to have some of the lesser known Hitchcock: Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Lifeboat, Suspicion, The Paradine Case, Stage Fright...

Back in December I said:

Did Philadelphia go out of print or is there a manufacturing flaw and it was pulled?

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Isn't that a Twilight Time release? If so, it may have sold out. Did you check their site?

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

I'm STILL waiting for The Ghost and the Darkness! Preferably with a documentary on the real John Patterson and the Lions of Tsavo.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

HBO's From The Earth to the Moon.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Guilty pleasure:

I truly want White Chicks (Unrated) on blu-ray!

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

I can't believe True Lies isn't out on Blu-ray yet. Hopefully we get it soon.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Punch-Drunk Love- This is my most anticipated and long-waited-for title for bluray. What in the hell happened to it? Paul Thomas Anderson announced in 2011 or 2012 that he was working on it and it would be out within a year and it's now... nearly 2015. I've heard vague rumors that Criterion is getting their hands on it and that would be great but at this point we're moving into 4K TV's and whatever Blu-ray's susccessor is going to be.

Sydney (AKA Hard Eight)- P.T. Anderson's first movie. I'm a completist and it's damn good.

True Lies- I really have to say I'm sorry James Cameron fell down the rabbit hole to Pandora and has no time for anything else, like restoring a couple of his long-neglected classics. I've heard that a special edition DVD was in the works back when 9/11 happened and got shelved because... I don't know. because there was a grand shelving of terrorism-themed movies?

Kicking and Screaming (the Noah Baumbach one, not the Soccer one)- Criterion did this on DVD and it's a great edition. Not a visually spectacular movie, it'd just be nice to have it in HD.

Would also love to see the Busby Berkeley movies and some pre-code stuff come to HD. The Blue Angel finally made it via Kino. Would love to see The Story Of Temple Drake. Been hearing about that movie for years and it was never even released on DVD. Apparently you can watch a godawful-looking copy of it on YouTube, but it stars my favorite lady from the 30's (Miriam Hopkins) and I'd love to see her glistening in all her hi-rez glory on my TV.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Still waiting for:

Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges)
Showdown in Little Tokyo (Dolph Lundgren and Brandon Lee)
The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane (Jodie Foster)

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Solaris 2002
The Abyss
True Lies
Shipwrecked 1990

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Even though it was announced, I'm still waiting for a release date for Orson Welles' The Trial. Kino announced it over two years ago, yet nothing ever came of it.

Speaking of Welles (and not to get off track), what ever happened to the rumored DVD release of Journey into Fear? I recall during one of the Warner chats, they were looking at releasing it around the time they released The Magnificent Ambersons, but I never heard anymore about it. Anyone here know anything?

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

why isn't The Hitcher (1986) on Blu-ray??

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Prospero's Books as is Drowning by Numbers - is finally making it's bluray appearance from Japan in April - praying for no flesh censoring.

Busby Berkeley on Blu Ray
 

Has Warner Bros announced any plans to release a Blu Ray version of the Busby Berkeley box set please anyone know if this is "in the works"?

Re: When will Warner Bros release Busby Berkeley Blu Ray Box Set?
 

I bet they did prep work for at least some of this material a few years ago. I know George Feltenstein said they worked on all the Astaire-Rogers films. Then the BD catalog market died (see other threads for that discussion).

This. I bet 42nd Street would outsell some of their BD releases. And they're releasing Yankee Doodle Dandy, which is a better film but also a black-and-white musical so there's precedent.

This too.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

I threw my wish list in the Shout! factory thread not realizing there was a sticky for this.

So here is a repeat:

My wish list:

The Black Hole (I know it is owned by Disney but they will likely never release it on BD)
Blood In Blood Out: Bound By Honor
Buck Rogers In The 25th Century (TV series)
Bully
Candyman
The Changeling (1980)
Glengarry GlenRoss
Grandma's Boy
Hardbodies
Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte
Just One Of The Guys
Miami Vice (TV series)
Mischief
Nemesis
Night Of The Living Dead (1968)
The Pirate Movie
Popeye (Robin Williams - 1980)
Return Of The Living Dead 3
The Rifleman (TV Series)
Sheitan
Spencer's Mountain
Splendor In The Grass
Team America: World Police
Turistas
Xanadu

and an Andy Sidaris film collection (the 80's)

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me
A Nightmare on Elm Street
The Sweet Hereafter
The Cell (kinda iffy on the movie, but I bet it would amazing)

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

The Cell got a fairly mediocre Blu-ray release in Canada from an old transfer.

Justice League Unlimited- Doubt that there's a chance in hell given how the previous seasons sold

Sleuth- This is hard to find even on DVD, it must be some sort of legal lockup, it's a fairly famous film.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Xanadu
Valley of the Gwangi - Hopefully Twilight Time will be getting to this.
The rest of the Universal Horror Movies
and the Hammer films like the ones already released in the UK. Lord a Dracula box set would be awesome.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

It is heavily rumored that Warner will get their Hammers out in 2015 or possibly 2016.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Super Mario Bros. and Double Dragon. I know I'm probably in the extreme minority in wanting these titles, but they're both movies me and my brother use to watch all the time when we were kids. UK blus exist, but I would like something released state side so I didn't have to import.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

I know they aren't as good as the original but I'd love to see the sequels to Jaws put out. I actually like Jaws 2 quite a bit and the other two while not great have their fun cheesy moments. It'd be nice if Scream Factory or someone licensed the rights to get them all put out.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

NYPD Blue
Hill Street Blues

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Philadelphia is Twilight Time' release.Still available for sale.
Also release in other regions.

Thunderbolt and Lightfoot was release by Twilight Time,but is sold out.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Warner did announce The Cell will get released this year in America.

Re: Your Blu-ray wish list / "When will _______ be on Blu-ray?"
 

Thanks for the heads up, wow, how did I miss that...
