I'd also love it if we ever saw Masanori Tominaga's Vengeance Can Wait, Shôsuke Murakami's Train Man and my most wanted Eastern film on Blu-ray would be Attack the Gas Station. Can you ever see any of these getting a BR release in the UK?
I wish I lived somewhere near London sometimes so I could go to more film events (I live in the highlands) like Terracotta's film club. I also missed out on seeing Police Story at the PCC a few months back which I'm gutted about as that is in my top 5 of all time.

In theory Vengeance Can Wait and Attack the Gas Station have possibilities, though I'd be very surprised about material for Attack the Gas Station as many pre-2000 Korean films have very poor material. I'm sure they'd only have a digibeta which means would need to go to original prints to make a blu-ray, and that is totally out of our price range.
Shark Skin Man another possibility too, but that's another complication with it being owned by a big company who can't be bothered with dealing on a catalogue title. Most companies nowadays don't like doing any deals on catalogue titles unless you buy a few titles together to make it worthwhile. Hence the 3 new Korean films (all from CJ Entertainment)
