THE CARPETBAGGERS

 

[Peter M Fitzgerald]

While I like Blu-ray, and have decent amount in my collection (and continue to buy), I'm more about seeing films I want that never got a DVD release (or didn't even get a domestic home video release), or got an inadequate DVD release (i.e., Universal's Pan&Scan release of Colossus: The Forbin Project). I don't intend to re-buy most of my existing DVD collection in the format, just for its own sake.

That being said, sign me up for Blu upgrades of:

Hondo in 3D (1953, and prep the unreleased Jivaro (1954) for 3D, too!)

War of the Worlds (1953, do something about those too-visible wires!)

Breakdown (1997, DVD release was non-anamorphic "flat" widescreen, ported from the LD)

The President's Analyst (1967, this should go to Criterion, as it's in their wheelhouse, plus they have, via the Janus Films collection, director Ted Flicker's The Troublemaker (1964), which is an ideal supplement, plus they could perhaps use some/all of the (unreleased?) documentary on the late Flicker's life, as well... see the clip below)

 

[RobertSiegel]

The Neil Simon movies (would make a great box set, oh how I want these!)

The Out of Towners
Barefoot in the Park
Last of the Red Hot Lovers
Plaza Suite

OTHERS

Darling Lili (Roadshow version)
War of the Worlds
When Worlds Collide
The Elephant Man
On a Clear Day you can See Forever
Paint Your Wagon
The Greatest Show on Earth
The High and the Mighty
Grease 2
Charlotte's Web (would be great if they remixed for stereo from music stems)
Mommie Dearest
Prophecy the Monster Movie
World of Suzie Wong
Grease 2
Half a Sixpence (in stereo)
Top Secret
Lucy Galliant & The Far Horizons (Vistavision)
A Boy Ten Feet Tall
The Carpetbaggers
Jonathan Livingston Seagull (restored to stereo, dvd sound was awful, foreign track was 100% better)
The Little Prince
Holocaust (TV miniseries)
First Monday in October
3 Ring Circus (Lewis and Martin Vistavision)
Unconquered

AND OF COURSE THE 3d PARAMOUNT FILMS

Cease Fire (3D from 1953)
Flight to Tangier (1953 3D)
Sangaree (3D)
Friday the 13th Part 3 in 3D
Popeye The Ace of Space (3D short , perfect to be added to another 3D full length feature)
Casper the Friendly Ghost (short, 3D)
Money from Home (3D) Lewis and Martin
Hondo (3D)
Jivaro (3D)

Going through the Paramount list on IMDB makes me realize how many fantastic films are unavailable on blu-ray. Why would they make a deal to choose movies NOT released on DVD, most of the best ones HAVE been released on DVD! If Kino doesn't want them I wish Twilight Time for another company would step in.

What happened to the deal with Warner Brothers on 600 titles from Paramount's catalog? I think maybe 10 titles got released in that deal.

[Bob Furmanek]

Don't waste your time suggesting the following titles:

MONEY FROM HOME - The company that currently has the Blu-ray license has zero interest in releasing a restored 3-D version. Trust me, I've tried. You don't know how hard I've tried!

POPEYE, THE ACE OF SPACE - No longer belongs to Paramount. I think WB has the rights. At least they did ten years ago.

BOO MOON - It's restored and available on 3-D Rarities from Flicker Alley.

 

[Paul Rossen]

Many great titles already mentioned and I'll list a few of my favorites.

The Heiress....if it's Universal come on Universal. One of the great films of all time.
Hud
Roman Holiday
In Harm's Way
Nobody''s Fool
Ragtime
Wonder Boys....Michael Douglas' version of Nobody's Fool. Both underrated films.
