If I remember I'll check this at the end of next year, you never know, I may get one or two.

It's fun looking at these old lists & seeing what's been released over the years (some releases looking better than others). This was a list of possible Warner Archive releases from three years ago, & I see with the forthcoming The Bad & The Beautiful there's five out of sixteen, not bad considering how good they look (which after all is the whole point of Blu-ray).

Pining for in 3D blu:

The Maze
Revenge of the Creature
Phantom of the Rue Morgue
I, The Jury
The Glass Web
Bwana Devil
Dangerous Mission
Gorilla at Large

Regular blu:

Girl in the Kremlin
Back from the Dead

Well, from my 2016 list above, we now (thanks to 3DFA) have 3D blus of The Maze and Revenge of the Creature.

To the 3D wants I'll add Robot Monster and to the 2Ds I'll add It Conquered the World.

That said, alas, for various reasons, I'm not holding my breath for any of these remaining titles....
