ugh!!!!

This is fantastic news. I look forward to this and Fox is releasing Stars and Stripes forever which will be a good classic, as well.

amazon.ca has pre-orders up for the following for 1/24/12:

NOTORIOUS
REBECCA
ANNIE HALL
MANHATTAN
THE APARTMENT

i really hope these get US releases at the same time. i want all 5 of them.

FUUUUUUUUUU

Hitchcock on blu-ray means more money jumping out of my pockets.

Manhattan needs to be released properly with gray letterboxing

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

"All 5" is the correct answer.

These are all MGM-controlled titles, and I have no doubt that they'll be released on this side of the border too. I wouldn't be surprised if they're trying to line up some kind of temporary retailer-exclusive thing, though.

I'd love to get Notorious (one of Hitchcock's all-time best) and Rebecca. I don't really feel the need to upgrade any Woody Allen DVDs, except maybe Manhattan.

Annie Hall is a very less the ordinary non anamorphic DVD. That is worth an upgrade.

Wow. I will definitely end up buying all 5 of those. Great news.

Absolutely in for all 5, especially Rebecca!

add SPELLBOUND to the list above and make it "all 6"

Fox will be releasing Fever Pitch on January 10, just in time for the NFL playoffs. $19.99 list price.

I forgot Annie Hall was non-anamorphic. Looks like an upgrade.

Thanks for the reminder!

Ah...just like Goodfellas.

Still have the two-disc DVDs of both of those, and this news isn't motivating me to upgrade.

The Piano is excellent news. Been waiting for that one for a long time. Can finally dump the non-anamorphic DVD.

The two-disc DVD of The English Patient had a boatload of extras. Hope those get carried over to the BD.

Olive Films is gonna treat us to some Jerry Lewis BD goodness for Feb. 14 2012

THE GEISHA BOY
ROCK-A-BYE BABY
BOEING BOEING

March 20:

-9 1/2 Weeks (uncut/international version)
-Disclosure
-Striptease (uncut/international version)

Goodfellas Blu-ray is missing one of the docos on the R1 DVD too.

sweet

Did that ever come out on region 1 DVD?

No, it did not.

So before I shell the $10 per season for 24 on DVD (S. 1-6) does anyone think/know if 1-6 24 will ever be released in HD?

I would guess no...unless a movie gets made and it's a huge smash...and those are two big "ifs" right now. I'm still waiting for all The Sopranos seasons to be in HD. There doesn't seem to be much incentive for studios to go back to prior seasons of ANY series for HD, it seems...only a few shows have done it.

Nice! In for all 3

1/31 - TO KILL A MOCKING BIRD (1962) (already a thread started but wanted to throw it in here)
2/14 - ALL QUIET OF THE WESTERN FRONT (1930)
