Here you go: https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=3937

maybe we could merge these two threads?

[Deciazulado]

There's also another older 3rd thread, five movies you want to see in HD

Since the OP of this one specified "Old School" movies in the body of the text, maybe a change of title is in order, while the thread Sidewinder linked starts with: Movies you want to see on Blu ray They can be announced or not ....doesnt matter.

Anyway you have the links for the old threads there.

I would easily add all the 007 movies, even the George Lazenby one.

There were too many of these Bond flicks out on DVD Special Edition with either a Dolby Mono or Dolby Stereo track. It's nice to see on the new DVD collection that every single Broccoli 007 movie now is available in widescreen with a DTS 5.1 track on it. Hear, hear! That's more like it. Previously Die Another Day was the only Bond movie with a DTS track on it.

Those 2 are Large Format films like The Searchers
Hopefully the film elements and the Studios are up to task!
