Default Movies only available in HD on Cable and not Blu-ray...yet.

Granted, most of these movies I've noticed in HD on cable before Blu-ray are old. I don't know the reasons why, most likely because it's just cheaper for studios to simply transfer the film to the cable outlets rather than waste putting it on the shelf with little demand.
Still, I thought I'd get some kind of a list started.
Again, movies seen on cable in HD that have yet to come out on Blu.
Movies highlighted in blue were revealed to have been released on Blu, sometimes in a different region (Please be sure to check the International ALL COUNTRIES releases of each Blu before submitting a title).
It's in the drop-down search box with the globe icon.
Movies highlighted in orange are in limbo, awaiting release.
Recent Request: If you can, please provide the cable network that's airing it, i.e. HBO, Showtime, Starz, etc. Thank you.

THIS LIST WILL BE UPDATED PERIODICALLY (BASED ON COMMUNITY RESPONSE)
Previous examples like Legend (already released), Pulp Fiction (soon to be released on blu), Raising Arizona, etc. were all in HD on cable well before Blu and I just didn't understand why it worked out that way.
Any other HD movies that you all have been watching on Cable before anybody else sees it on Blu?
PLEASE BE SURE TO CHECK THE INTERNATIONAL LISTINGS OF EACH MOVIE BEFORE SUBMITTING A TITLE.
Thank You.
