Five Warner Titles For 2012 (1 Viewer)

[cineMANIAC]

What do people consider catalog titles? Is something from 2002 a catalog title? Personally, anything pre-1990 would be a catalog title. Many people don't consider 80's output worthy of attention - the fact is, plenty of fine films came out of the decade and many remain unreleased. Additionally, quite a few films from the 80's are on DVD but in mediocre editions. From Warner, I'd like to see the following catalog titles on Blu: Ice Station Zebra The Time Machine Bad Day at Black Rock Joe versus the Volcano The Long, Long Trailer

Mega dittos on any and all 70mm titles. I'd also throw in the long-ago-promised-though-never-delivered silent classics in their library which include: Greed, The Wind, The Crowd and The Big Parade.

I'm sure many agree with you but a catalog title is anything that isn't a current movie. For example, when the last Harry Potter comes out on video in November, it will be a new release but when the ultimate edition comes out by the end of 2012, it'll be a catalog title even though the movie will barely be a year old.

Any film not release to a theater in 2011 will be a catalog title in 2012. So Waner is releasing 40 -50 films on blu-ray next year that are not new theatrical releases


Even the wonderful "Me and Orson Wells" from 2009 which still hasn't come to DVD (though planned for a while) is now a catalog title

I like your list better than mine, except I would now put Giant on the list in place of Madding Crowd.

Gee,i must've lost the part where we split from listing just Warner titles now... Singin in the rain and Hammer I'm at a loss here... Warner owns Mgm catalogs and Hammer ? I don't follow these things so.. although a contradiction in terms,i am now looking for a crying smiley. I'll just put this here.

 

[ahollis]

Well so far it looks as the people want:


Ryan's Daughter

The Great Race

Raintree County

Gypsy

The Haunting


All excellent titles. I had forgotten about Around The World in 80 Days, and boy would that make a outstanding Blu-ray.

Dude, what is your deal? Are you drunk or stoned or what? Warner put out Singin' In The Rain and a bunch of Hammer films on DVD. And is there something wrong with liking both? If so, my bad.

 

[montrealfilmguy]

Scott,nothing wrong with the fact OR liking both,jeez dont take it personal we're all film fans here. as i stated in the post i dont check who owns what clearly and on every film. To me Singin in the rain is still one of MGM's most celebrated films and a Hammer film is ..well,Hammer,not Hammer/Warner or Warner/Hammer Next time answer nicely or don't answer at all please.

I guess I just didn't understand your post or the whole frown face thing. It made no sense. Kinda like no spaces after commas. I'm at a loss Or something.

"Cannonball Run", "Three Amigos", "Dave" "The American President" - each and everyone a true classic.


Right up there with their very best "Rebel Without a Cause" "Who's Afraid of Vrigina Woolf?" "Yankee Doodle Dandy" and "Giant",

( not to mention "Aunite Mame" "The Great Race" "Gypsy" and "East of Eden")


can't wait for "Revolution" "Big Bird's Adventure" and "Up the Academy"

Arggghhhh. I LOVE Giant And i'll buy 7 brides just for the barn raising brawl and the barn dance sequences.

I agree with that. GIANT is my number one choice by far. I would add MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS as my next choice. A big YES for SEVEN BRIDES, too, for the same reason, and add in the "Lonesome Polecat" number.

 

[Alan Tully]

Glad to see all the love for The Great Race.

 

[GerardoHP]

Kiss Me Kate (only if 3D) Dial M fort Murder (only if 3D) House of Wax (only if 3D) Gypsy Raintree County Since I assume my three 3D choices will be ignored, I'm adding three more: Singin' in the Rain Meet Me in St. Louis Ryan's Daughter

 

[Alan Tully]

My pick for a 50's Warner 3D movie would be, The Phantom Of The Rue Morgue, '54. It's a fun movie.
