Definitely, there are lots of older films that keep showing up on Bargain basement DVD's that need urgent attention, seince most of the masters still exists (no the edited ones that on these dvd's) and plenty of them are owned by MGM and such .
Lassie and the paninted hills. I think ROAN DVD did a restored version on fullscreen from an old print but it still isnt as good as what could be done on an original master.
The swiss conspiracy, it would be nice to see the original film as intended by MGM (I think it was either MGM or some other company)
The agency (1980) simple it stars the six million dollar man, yet alone an unedited versioun with a good widescreen transfer would be welcome.
Gold- 1975, a great roger Moore film which has a cult following, not to mention maurice binder dsigned title credits and a great score and theme song.
