Only Forbidden Planet for me.

blugojira · 11-26-2009, 01:38 AM

Dial M for Murder (prob my second favorite Hitchcock film) and Dr. Zhivago will be mine.

fletchlives · 11-26-2009, 01:57 AM

I haven't seen it, but I'll definitely get it!
Really looking forward to it.

SpiderBaby · 11-26-2009, 02:15 AM

Kelly's Heroes, Where Eagles Dare, Dial M for Murder and The Maltese Falcon for me.

I would rather want the David Mamet remake of The Postman Always Rings Twice with Jack Nicholson and Jessica Lange.

tbizzle · 11-26-2009, 02:15 AM

Sweet, great opportunity for young guys like me to play some much needed catchup, I've only seen The Maltese Falcon. Can't wait!

That would be very nice.

HumanMedia · 11-26-2009, 02:50 AM

Maybe the place for this is not in the USA forum?

In fact if you look in the France forum there is already a discussion, from over a month ago, about all of these and more...

This is about US releases. The French dates were provided so that people would know that the US versions would come out before the French dates.

Grand Bob · 11-26-2009, 03:03 AM

Great news, looks like it's going to be a good year.

Trogdor2010 · 11-26-2009, 03:36 AM

Sweet, Doctor Zhivago and kelly's heroes is nice, I hope there are more classic movies than that however (A couple of them are HD DVDs, mind you).

retablo · 11-26-2009, 03:36 AM

A few major classics here. Everyone should own Zhivago, Maltese Falcon and Sierra Madre, which no one has mentioned and is possibly Bogart's best, not to mention the best film about greed ever made.

The Guilty Party · 11-26-2009, 03:40 AM

THIS is the stuff that dreams are made of.

The Maltese Falcon is one of my favorite movies of all-time and will be a pre-order for me. The only other one I'm considering is "Dial M" but that's probably not in my top ten Hitchcock films, so I might pass on this.

Either way, more classics on Blu is great news!!! Thanks!

" Warner HD-DVD conversion list.

(Especially if they include "The Invisible Boy" from the 2-disk SD.)

As for Dial M, hopefully a better looking hi-def print than the one that surfaced on PS3 Store.
That one was in pretty poor shape, and may have just been broadcast only.
