My number one wish is The Mosquito Coast from 1986. I still don't understand how a Harrison Ford/Helen Mirren/River Phoenix movie can be buried now. Even a TV remake did not generate interest in it...

The Poseidon Adventure (50th anniv in 2022!) The Towering Inferno The Sound of Music Cleopatra Poltergeist The first 4 are Fox titles, so Disney will just sit on 'em forever and the current blurays are all we will ever see... : (

The Last Wagon (1956) Cheyenne Autumn (1964)

I would love to see THE MOSQUITO COAST (1986), and was hoping a bluray release would happen due to the new Justin Theroux series. I don't understand how it is mostly a forgotten movie now; three superstars, and an oscar-nominated performance. It has so much going for it!

Friday the 13th - Part 3. Waited 38 years to see it in real 3D; finally saw it a couple weeks ago on my 11.5 foot by 5 foot projection screen... fantastic effects. LOTS of 'in your face' stuff. Murder weapons, wild animals, eyeballs, yoyos, hands, you name it! Yes, very cheezy, but that's...

I read about a possible TV series of The Mosquito Coast a few months ago. Let's hope it happens, and results in a bluray release of the Harrison Ford / Helen Mirren 1980s film! Can't believe it is not out already.

Name: Richard CRITERION CHANNEL Sound Question: Will films eventually be available with original sound mixes? Some stereo titles are streaming in mono sound (for example 'Mother', and 'The Elephant Man'), while other films with 5.1 mixes stream in 2.0 stereo.

SOUND MIXES: Has anyone else noticed that some stereo titles are streaming on Criterion in mono? For example 'Mulholland Dr'', ''The Elephant Man''. While some stereo movies with 5.1 mixes on bluray, only have 2.0 stereo on Criterion Channel. Is there a setting that I have missed ??

ISSUE WITH APPLE PRODUCTS: I have written to Criterion last week about this, and they are aware, and working on the problem (they replied to me 4 days ago). I noticed it right away when I watched my first movie on this service (also The Lineup!). I have a new 4K Apple TV, and also tried on old...

Awesome!! Hoping for lots of extras.

Finally something for Canadians too! THANK YOU!! All we have that I know of is Netflix, and the classic film selection is really the pits...

'Good Times' was a spinoff of 'Maude' which was a spinoff of 'All in the Family'. And 'Checking In' was a spinoff of 'The Jeffersons', which was also a spinoff of 'All in the Family'.

Dolby Atmos is the only thing missing from my home theater... It would be great!!
