    Paramount DVD Requests for 2007

    Well, we're 3 quarters through the year (2007) and none of my wishes have come true.. ENCHANTED APRIL, SOME KIND OF HERO, and THE STERILE CUCKOO haven't been released. It's hard to keep faith. Maybe they're waiting on the out come of the HD/Blu-ray battle.

    Touchstone/Disney/Buena Vista DVD Requests for 2006

    John, That was what I thought I was doing. Dang-me, I'll have to admit I made a mistake, or find someone to blame. Besides that, it appears to be already out there. Thanks for calling it to my attention. I need to add SONG OF THE SOUTH to the 2007 list.

    Warner DVD Requests for 2007

    n my 4+ years as a member, my wish list of movies under the Warner Brothers banner has began showing more movement of late. SERGEANT YORK, CROSSING DELANCEY, THE ILLUSTRATED MAN are recently, or soon to be, released. My list has dwindled from 10 or more to 4. Remaining “longed for” movies are...

    Paramount DVD Requests for 2007

    In my 4+ years as a member, my wish list of movies from Paramount has hardly moved. They did come out with the musical version of SCROOGE (1970 with Albert Finney) But I’ve seen no movement on the other 3 movies: ENCHANTED APRIL (1992) SOME KIND OF HERO (1982) a classic for Richard Pryor...

    FOX DVD Requests for 2007

    Dreaming into 2007 * In the 4+ years as a member, my wish list of movies of the 20th Century Fox banner has dwindled from more that a dozen or more (as some were added along the way) to a mere 4. Like RafaelPires, I'm still waiting for : THE GUNFIGHTER (1950 with Gregory Peck). The other 3...

    Criterion or Sony.... Godzilla

    The oldie I'm looking from from Sony (I'm told they own it now) or Criterion (or who ever might own the rights to it) is: THE MAID (1991) Martin Sheen and Jacqueline Bissett A good re-digitized version, I'd buy in a New York minute. And I'm from the Seattle area.

    Does this site REALLY get DVDs released?

    Matthew, I can only give you ancedotal evidence. I came upon this website in Aug. of 2002. In the first couple of years, over 20 of my wish list titles have been released. It's been rather barren the last couple of years. From some of the other threads, you can find my lists of "still waiting...

    Paramount DVD requests for 2006

    Right now, I've got 3 wishes from Paramount. 1. I'm with Doug Irving on wanting ENCHANTED APRIL (1992) 2. I would like Richard Pryor's SOME KIND OF HERO (1982) and 3. I think Liza Minnelli's THE STERILE CUCKOO (1969) is worth having in my library.

    I know that a version of HARRY & TONTO (aka on the list as HARRY AND TONTO) has been release just this month. I've purchased it as promised. Has there been any other releases from the list?
