Any good Arabian Nights on BD? - Blu-ray Forum

Dr.Mirakle32 · 01-25-2009, 07:06 PM

I'm a huge fan of classic, 1001 Nights-based films, and am wondering if there are many good ones already available on BD? I already have Harryhausen's 7TH VOYAGE OF SINBAD (a week one purchase), but are there any more?

I'm still waiting for Disney's ALADDIN, and feel Criterion's THIEF OF BAGDAD would look spectacular on BD (although there are currently no plans for either

.)

Any other titles you could recommend?

Thanks!

There was a really good TV adaptation of ARABIAN NIGHTS in, I think around 2000 (check IMDB). It starred Jason Scott Lee and John Leguizamo was the genie. I thought it was a real quality, entertaining production. It was made by the same guys that made the TV extravaganzas MERLIN & GULLIVER'S TRAVELS (which I think are absolute classics). It's on DVD, but not Blu-Ray yet.
