About Twilight's Last Gleaming Japan R2 :
I need to double check but I think I've read a test in a magazine that confirms the full-length version is actually FF and the short one is WS... [img]images/smilies/frown.gif[/img]

"Year of the Dragon" was available in a R3 version which I bought about a year or so ago. It is a nice disc. Heaven knows when a R1 will come out. [img]images/smilies/wink.gif[/img]

"Nightwing" : I know vampire bat movie, but I have fond memories of watching this on HBO about 100 times when I was a kid..would love to see it again on widescreen.
"Carny" : Young Jodie Foster, the Mighty Bozo Gary Busey and Robbie Robertson..what more can you ask.
"Night of the Comet" : classic 80's flick..just plain fun.

quote: THE ANIMAL WORLD (Warner - crumby movie but has early
legendary Harryhausen tabletop dinosaur animation...the
ten-minute sequence could be used as a supplement for,
say, a VALLEY OF GWANGI disc)
The Harryhausen dinosaur sequence is a supplement on The Black Scorpion disc from Warners (!). Been out 'prolly a year or so.

I don't know if I might have mentioned it earlier in the thread, but one title I doubt will get released (but should) is MAD MAGAZINE PRESENTS UP THE ACADEMY. Anyone remember this?
It was Mad's first (and only) attempt at rivaling National Lampoon and putting out a feature film. Written by two sitcom vets (who did the Bob Newhart show, Buffalo Bill, one created ALF), directed by Robert Downey, starring Ron Leibman, Ralph Macchio, and Tom Poston among others. It was about kids at a military academy.
Before it came out, Leibman became so embarassed by it, he took his name off it (despite his giving a hysterical performance in it). After its theatrical release, Mad became so embarassed by it, they paid to have all Mad references taken out of the film (Alfred E. Neuman is in a couple scenes). It was held off from video for several years, but when it was finally released, Warner Home Video forgot to take the Mad references out of the film (despite changing the artwork which was all Mad graphics and cartoons) and Warner had to give Mad back the money.
It played on cable for years with all the Mad references cut, but in the past few years, cable channels like TNT have been showing it, not only with the Mad references back, but with the opening and closing credits letterboxed at 2.35:1.
I'd love to see this get a DVD release, especially with any sorts of extras explaining why everyone was so embarassed by it (it isn't THAT bad). But, with all the legal problems with it, I don't know if that is going to happen.
