What Titles Would You Like to see on Blu-Ray??? (1 Viewer)

[Richard--W]

The Devil and Daniel Webster (1941).

 

[Albert71292]

"The King of Jazz" (1930), since it hasn't even gotten a DVD release!

 

[Alan Tully]

Tony Richardson's The Charge Of The Light Brigade 1968. It's been a favorite film since I first saw it when it opened. There was a so-so DVD cut version released in the UK by the BFI & in the US by MGM. It would be great if the BFI did a proper HD job on it.

 

[John Hodson]

Sadly the BFI no longer have the home video rights; they've tons of material for some fantastic supplements, but the rights are now with Studio Canal. And, yes, I would kill for a decent BD of the full length version of the film.

 

[Peter Neski]

Still waiting for Badlands,El Sur ,Lynch and Bertollucci 1900 from Olive films is better than nothing ,but little chance they will include making of Doc,which i think is on Italian BR before the Revolution looks fantastic in HD ,but no US Version What about The Spiders Stratagem ,The Trial,Touch of Evil ???? UA Fellini films? I am Glad we might get A New Leaf

I'm going to answer this question but not with the title of a film. What I would like to see more of on Blu-ray are fresh transfers, of movies in general, not transfers of old hi-def masters, with as little digital manipulation as possible. I've got more than a few Blu's in my collection that are hardly indistinguishable from their DVD counterparts. (And if I had to pick one title that I'd like to see hit Blu very soon, it's The Abyss).

The Scent of Green Papaya is on Blu from Kino.

 

[Bob Cashill]

Why a "US release" of THE DEER HUNTER? The one available from the UK (Region A playable) is in good shape and not terribly expensive, with a detailed Cimino commentary.

Too lazy to order it.

Whoops, I own that. Missed that one I was whittling down my list.

If you'd stir yourself for just a minute, Richard, you can order it from Amazon UK in seconds, provided you already have an account there. THINGS TO COME is on Blu, paired with SHE, but it's nothing to write home about. And shortt of a major restoration it may never be.

1776 (Theatrical Version/Director's Cut/Extended Laserdisc Version) Oh God! Trilogy (1977-1984) Indiana Jones Trilogy (1981-1989)

"The King of Jazz" (1930), since it hasn't even gotten a DVD release!

Universal is doing a restoration on it right now.

One Eyed Jacks is already out on Bluray, I believe.

 

One Eyed Jacks is already out on Bluray, I believe.

I think he means a legitimate Paramount (or somebody like Criterion or Twilight Time) release from the original elements. All the other stuff, DVD or Blu-ray, has been pretty weak.

The UK release of Things to Come is actually pretty good and would make the basis of a fine BD.

At the moment my top ten wish list would be - ...The Charge of the Light Brigade (1968)...

French BD off the port bow, but I'll bet it's nothing we haven't seen before; I assume you're familiar with all this and Trevor Willsmer's comments at Amazon?
