New Year Wish List

[Pork Chop Express]

After the disappointment (for me anyway) of the no show anniversary editions of The Abyss(25th) and True Lies(20th) this year,what catalogue titles would people like to see released in 2015? I know this is just another 'what i want to see on blu ray thread',but i don't care.
Anyway,apart from those Cameron classics,i'd love to see 88 Films or Arrow getting their hands on some more Empire Pictures gems,like 'Zone Troopers' or 'Eliminators'.Some early Peter Jackson in the shape of 'Bad Taste' and 'Meet The Feebles' would be welcome too.Michael Lehman's massively underrated comedy 'Meet The Applegates' has never even had a DVD release,so if Scream Factory or Arrow could remedy that,it'd be appreciated.
And i know that this will NEVER happen,but i still live in hope that Michael Mann could put the early ugly film making experience behind him and find it in his heart to partake in a release of a Director's cut of 'The Keep'.Christ,we had a special edition of 'Super Mario Bros.' this year,so stranger things have happened.
Anybody else?

I would like to see a release of Munich as well as Bronco Billy, City Heat, White Hunter also Pink Cadillac...........


p.s

I am a bit of a Clint Eastwood Fan


Merry Christmas to all fellow forum members and a very happy prosperus new year

I would like for Dreamworks to pull their finger out and release more of their earlier stuff including their first film Antz, along with Chicken Run, Wallace & Gromit movie and The Prince of Egypt.

The Iron Giant is also long overdue a release. Brad Bird says he has been talking to Warner Bros but they want a bare bones release, he wants better.

Live action wise, Death Becomes Her, Casper, Addams Family Values, Kindergarten Cop, Bad Boys 2, Rush Hour 2, Witches of Eastwick, Gremlins 2, Eraser, Arachnophobia, Ed Wood, MouseHunt (alot of sequels!)

Disney ought to open up their back catalog too, so many films unreleased... Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Flubber, James and the Giant Peach, 101 Dalmatians (1996), Hocus Pocus, The Santa Clause, Herbie, and the criminally underrated and seemingly obscure Brave Little Toaster.

And we need the big surprise boxset, this year it was the 1960s Batman series. A Laurel & Hardy boxset comprising of all their shorts would be nice

[CouncilSpectre]

Mannequin. For the love of Christ can we pleeeeease finally have this one?!

All remaining John Hughes movies - particularly Pretty in Pink.

And of course, Abyss and True Lies....

I would love to see a company like Soda release a Todd Solondz box set. Happiness gets a lot of stick for it's dark subject matter, but I like my comedy black and the ending to this film is the funniest I've ever seen.

I know they are, hence why i put 'Titles that need a UK release' in the subtitle. I'm not a fan of importing, but when i'm eventually ready to watch them and they still aren't out, looks like i'll have no choice but to import!
