What re-issues do you wanna see in 2002 and why? (1 Viewer)

[LukeB]

All the President's Men would be great too.

 

[Dave Barth]

Dream reissues would include Criterion reissuing some strangely bare-bones discs like M with the supplemental content they deserve. I'd also third the desire to see Criterion handle the Fox Lorber catalog; current discs like Ran are embarassing. (It's sad to me; as I learn more and more about classic international cinema, I learn how many of these films have received shoddy DVD releases at the hands of this firm...)
Reissues I'd like to see include some of the Scorcese films already mentioned, Pulp Fiction, and Blade Runner.
In a fantasy world Billy Wilder would record a commentary for The Apartment and then his other films. (Oh, yeah, some of MGM's budget line ain't so grand, either.)

 

[Matthew Anderson]

Heat-SE in DTS with commentaries.

 

[David Coleman]

CRIMSON TIDE (16X9, as a special edition)

WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT and MR HOLLAND'S OPUS(both with decent 16X9 transfers

OUTBREAK as an SE

FIELD OF DREAMS as an Ultimate Edition in 16x9 and 5.1 surround.

[Mark Anthony]

Almost forgot, how could I have forgotten about MGM...
Thief - this time in anamorphic, and if the 5.1 remix could be re-done from better source materials, as the difference in clarity between the 1995 cd soundtrack remaster and the score on both the Dolby laserdisc edition and the 5.1 remix for the dvd beggers belief, they pale in comparison to the cd.
Bond! All the pre-1974 bond film's could do with cleaner picture transfers from better elements, by the looks of which some preservation and restoration on certain titles is also necessary.
Also You Only Live Twice, OHMSS, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and Octopussy could do with 5.1 soundtracks - as seperate DME elements, which make remixing possible, are available for all these - apparently the DME's are lost for Dr No, From Russia with Love and Goldfinger :frowning: but Chace could still remix the composite mono master elements
As to why Octopussy, the only bond film originally with a 70mm blow up 6 track mix, was released in plain 2.0 in the first place I don't know....

 

[Jeff Ulmer]

Jean de Florette/Manon des Sources - to fix the god awful compression artifacts and deliver a proper anamorphic transfer.

 

[streeter]

Almost every movie that Chevy Chase has made. The Vacation films, Funny Farm, etc.

Chase is fullscreen's biggest rape victim.

 

[Dmitry]

I forgot to mention Grumpy Old Men and Grumpier Old Men.

 

[Neil Joseph]

I would also like to see The Colour Purple redone so that it is no longer a flipper.

 

[Matthew H]

The Vacations & Police Academy - Both need to be in their OARs

 

[Steve Clark]

Two of the best films of the 1990s.
