Default Screwball Comedy on Blu-ray

I was really excited to see Criterion's announcement of His Girl Friday, and thought I'd make a thread of all screwball comedies released on Blu-ray since I couldn't find one. It's a shame there are only so few -- it's truly one of the greatest genres Hollywood ever produced. Here's hope that classics like The Awful Truth, The Philadelphia Story and Ball of Fire will soon join the format!

I used the definition from Byrge and Miller's The Screwball Comedy Films to compile this list, meaning all films on it are from the period 1934-1942. Feel free to add any that I've missed!

Don't want to deflate your topic, but Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is definitely not "screwball comedy" (and while I'm in the minority here, I don't consider It Happened One Night and The Philadelphia Story "screwball" either...too earnest with their characters and serious with their situations to be labeled as such.)
