Gummo is wretched, and I normally like Harmony Korine.

the poster alone is oft-putting.

Diva
Tampopo

I'd list Gummo as one of the 10 best films of the 90's .

If you said julien donkey boy I might agree with you, but Gummo?

Rutger Hauer's The Hitcher and Urgh! A Music war.

Mine too.

Here's another movie that I would love to see get a Criterion release:

Criterion should release triple/3 in 1 packs so we can save some moolah.

Yes, please!

I'd love it if they did Olympia like they did for laserdisc.

Also this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kosovo_(film)

So am I!

I love to get this on Criterion. my other: Blue Collar (Richard Pryor, Harvey Keitel & Yaphet Kotto) would be love on Criterion too and King Kong (1976) too.

Linklater's Before Trilogy boxset
La Luna
Lovers of the Arctic Circle
Open Hearts
Koreeda Hirokazu boxset with After Life, Nobody Knows, I Wish, and Like Father, Like Son
Raise the Red Lantern
Maelström

I'd like to see Gummo and Kids, too.

cool poster - interesting that the shot behind Father Grandier is from the excised 'Rape of Christ' scene.

.. but Warner Bros. holds this in their grimy hands like a noose. The BFI had to jump through hoops just to release the film in the UK on DVD.

well at least you didn't include 'Ken Park' - ew, now that's a nasty movie.

A Man for All Seasons - still no BD, and since it's a Sony title I think Criterion would be a possibility.

or ... Shudder... Twilight Time

Me too. My most wanted Criterion Bd upgrade, followed by And God Created Woman, Friends Of Eddie Coyle and Pandora's Box.
Both CoS and AGCW are much older discs and would benefit greatly from new 2K masters and a 1080p uptick.

As far as I can tell, the last "Criterion Wish List" thread ended back in Sept. 2014. It included lots of movies that are out in either acceptable DVD form but could stand an update/remaster or the bonus feature treatment.

Rather than bump that thread, what movies are in dire need of rescuing (either have horrible transfers...including public domain travesties, notorious cuts, and/or are only available in other regions)?

TWO WOMEN
MATEWAN
ONE-EYED JACKS
ABEL GANCE'S NAPOLEON
CAMILLE CLAUDEL

In other words, movies that don't just need the deluxe treatment but need ANY decent treatment...and are Criterion-worthy.

Deep Throat.
