All Blue Ray disks require a new master from the original films at 2K? This is new knowlege. If you have any links on that, please pass them on.
Thanks again. Being patient. And I will review the sales data. The Wizard of Oz, Sleeping Beauty should be good examples.

Keep in mind also that some are held back for a particular reason. For instance, Ghostbusters is being released to coincide with the anniversary of the movie. Or to take advantage of a related theatrical release, like the Xmen movies coming when Wolverine is in theaters and Star Trek coming when the new movie releases. Some studios will do this with bigger catalog titles. Also, some directors hold up their work for personal reasons. Lucas and Spielberg tend to hold onto their big guns until there is a larger user base to ensure big sales. That's why it took so long for Indiana Jones and Star Wars to appear on DVD. (the obvious exceptions being Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Clone Wars which released because it was timed with the initial DVD release) I remember distinctly that I had switched to all DVDs when Phantom Menace came out for sale only on VHS.
