I would love to see "Spellbinder" on DVD (the 26-part Disney Channel mini-series - not the crappy sequel which didn't air on Disney).

"Pandora's Clock" wasn't mentioned. I would like to see that.

I have the "Alice in Wonderland" musical on VHS, not sure if I would buy though, but I would also like to see it on DVD.

Dave,

Is there a reason why tvshowsondvd.com does not have "Billionaire Boys Club" (Judd Nelson and Ron Silver) on the list ? It hasn't been released on DVD yet, but I still have hope that it will be released someday.

 

[Jeff Willis]

I'm also a big Miniseries fan. The ones I'm wanting are in my "signature"

 

[Robert Saccone]

Jack The Ripper (1988) with Michael Caine. It's out on disc in R2 but I would love it for R1.

Jack The Ripper (1988) with Michael Caine.

 

[Matt Butler]

I was astonished to discover that Paramount has released Liberty! The American Revolution on DVD... 10 months ago!?! They really slipped that one in under the radar. By far, the best history-themed miniseries I've ever seen. As I mentioned in my previous post, it's most comparable to Ken Burns' The Civil War only on a more socio-economic/political scale vs. military engagements.

Here's what I'd like to see.

The Bastard
Based on John Jakes novel

Condominium
New condo development threatened by natural disaster

Evening In Byzantium
Glenn Ford plays washed up filmmaker with new
screenplay. The plot of terrorists using hijacked
jets happen to be what a real terrorist group is
planning

 

[Paul McElligott]

Evening In Byzantium

Wow, I'd almost completely forgotten about that one. Anything with Erin Gray can't be bad! Also had Edward James Olmos circa 1978!

 

[Yee-Ming]

"Billionaire Boys Club"

This was the only one that came to mind, not that I would absolutely necessarily buy it, and I'm surprised that (a) it's not on the list and (b) someone else also thought of this!

 

[Mark Silver]

Billionaire Boys Club is a MUST BUY.....Judd Nelson and Ron Silver in their prime.....It doesn't get any better than that.

 

[Jason Hughes]

Count me in for Noble House.

Anybody know who has the rights, so I can pester them?

 

[PaulEBoy]

Put me down for a big second on:

Eleanor and Franklin
Eleanor and Franklin: The White House Years

And now we'll have the new HBO movie with Kenneth Branagh and Cynthia Nixon to compare it to...
