A pretty incredible resource Brandon, especially for someone like me who collects pre-1960s films.

One thing I noticed is that Our Daily Bread is listed in the 1930s section. This release never materialized and I cannot find it listed anywhere anymore (e.g. Amazon, DVD Planet). If someone does have it I'd love it if they shared where they purchased it.

 

[Brandon Conway]

The Our Daily Bread release has actually been delayed. I've updated the list to reflect this. It's still forthcoming:

"It's still in restoration and I'm hoping it can go into compression and authoring by the end of the month."

The Legend of Billie Jean (1985) (Mill Creek) - coming to Blu-ray 7/22/14

I'm rather surprised to hear that The Legend of Billie Jean is being released on Blu-ray. It wasn't available on DVD at all for a long time, and even then it was released as an MOD title.

 

[Brandon Conway]

It's an odd choice of the Sony licensed titles for Mill Creek to go Blu on, but there it is on amazon.com for pre-order all the same.

It's probably a "normal" caliber release for a sublicensed title. Mill Creek, Anchor Bay, Shout!, TT and others are only going to get middle tier titles at best, while the major studios sit on the upper tier movies to release at their own leisure. Unfortunately there are quite a few cases where a Blu comes out only a year or two after the DVD and sometimes without any DVD being released at all. I think part of it is that expectations for PQ are not that high from Mill Creek and a few others, so there's no hesitation to just go ahead and put it on Blu-ray. Whereas Sony and Warner have a rep to live to, and with standards so high, it acts like a double-edged sword to hold back titles since sales won't justify the expense needed.

 

[Brandon Conway]

Mill Creek does have "bigger" Sony titles as part of their license, though, such as Scorsese's The Age of Innocence.Sent from my VS920 4G using Tapatalk

True, and the title referred to above would be in the "lower" tier category (for Blu-ray anyway).
