Sony. And it's coming next year. They are putting a ton of work into it, so it should be incredible.

GoBlu08 · 12-28-2007, 01:56 PM

Is there any release date for lawrence of arabia yet?

Arecsa · 12-28-2007, 02:02 PM

No release date yet. I think I heard late 2008 somewhere on here though.

dtr20 · 12-28-2007, 06:06 PM

nice

I hope Fox does a great job on this title. Robert Harris called it one of their crown jewels, and it really is.

Even if you don't like musicals, just the scenery and photography in it are reason enough to buy it.

It's on my must-buy list.

true2_blu · 12-28-2007, 07:03 PM

I know they are not gladiator type movies, but they are war classics that need to be blu

"Patton"
"The Longest Day"
"The Enemy Below"

SolidBlu · 12-28-2007, 11:45 PM

Battle of Britain
A Bridge Too Far
Patton
Tora! Tora! Tora!
The Longest Day
Cleoptara
The 300 Spartans
The Robe
Poseidon
The Towering Inferno
Demetrius and the Gladiators

(Darn, I forgot: SEVEN Ritual Sony movies that always have to be auto-released first on any new format...
And we're not even up to that point yet.)

Were you sexy in Cleopatra? Elizabeth Taylor sure as hell wasn't. But then, I'm not a guy.

Cleopatra has to be one of the most craptastic film fiascoes ever made.

Admittedly, there's not a lot of classic Fox movies I want to see. But if they could do Blu-Ray versions of THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, the original PLANET OF THE APES, ALIEN and ALIENS and I'd be a happy guy.

And for something more recent that's not on everyone's list, THE COMMITMENTS. That movie has great music in it and doesn't look too bad, especially the concert scenes.

JonD7 · 12-31-2007, 01:07 AM

no idea why but I would really love to see the Rear Window on Blu, I think it would look really great in high def.
