I would hope for Taylor too, although didn't see her mentioned.Powell&Pressburger said:Wonderful news Also hope for some great Liz Taylor classics. Hot summer day like today I want to watch Cat on a Hot Tin Roof but I will hold out for a BLU release possibly in 2015

First off-You need to finish my post which i thanked Mr Harris for this promising news. Second. I dont doubt what he was told by Warner, but we have been promised things a number of times before from Warner. And third. you do not have to tell me who Robert Harris is , I have high regard for him.Mr. Harris is not only an esteemed HTF member, but an industry insider with a global reputation...his revelation of this news should be universally welcomed by ALL of us...remember how long it took for us to get a proper blu-ray of "Lawrence"...Mr. Harris was one of the key people behind the scenes who made sure Sony did it CORRECTLY!!!
I'd love all of those films from WHV or WAC, of course, but a properly restored National Velvet would be wonderful and is at the top of my list. The DVD that WB has out now is one of the original MGM discs from the very early days of DVD...1997, I believe. It doesn't look so hot, but I was told about 10 years ago on one of the chats here that it's a big seller for WB.Konstantinos said:I would hope for Taylor too, although didn't see her mentioned.
Well, it seems we can't have Raintree County, so some others I would be most interested in are the Sandpiper, Reflections in a Golden Eye, National Velvet, Little Women, Ivanhoe, Butterfield 8, etc..
I've bought so much stuff on Blu-ray this year I can frankly stand a break; at least my wallet can. I'll take RAH's advice and start saving now.AshJW said:I couldn't understand the complaines about the "non-activity" (which is nonsense) in the first place.
As far as I can tell were the Warner Brothers the studio, that was the one that put out older titles from day one and without pause.
Warner doesn't have access to Columbia titles. I'd love Suddenly, Last Summer as well, though...maybe we'll see it from Sony, or Twilight Time or Criterion? I'd love to see Criterion get their hands on an Elizabeth Taylor film!Great to see all the love for Elizabeth in this thread. She was #4 on Forbes' top earning dead celebrity of 2013, two spots ahead of Marilyn. She still sells, WB! Hopefully we'll see some of her films in 2015.theonemacduff said:I'm hoping for Suddenly, Last Summer, though that seems a remote possibility from WB, given it was released on DVD as a Columbia Classic; still Amazon is listing it as an instant video in HD, so it looks like an HD master has been done. I can dream....
I've no doubt that THE BAND WAGON is at the top of the list of MGM musicals coming to BluRay. It's the highest profile Freed unit title that's still MIA and with the names Minnelli and Astaire attached to it, it's a shoo-in!GlennF said:I see Minnelli and Astaire. Hopefully some of the great MGM musicals that have yet to be released. Could it be The Band Wagon? Fingers crossed.
David Steigman is that you...again?EManT2200 said:HAMMER ! HAMMER ! HAMMER ! please, please, please, lol. Any of WB's 1950's horror and sci-fi. Also, I would love to see "The Thin Man" series hit blu-ray !
