Lost Highway, definitely! I would add along with that, Wild at Heart and Fire Walk With Me.

As for others:

Robert Altman :: McCabe & Mrs. Miller, California Split, Thieves Like Us, Brewster McCloud, Buffalo Bill and the Indians [those all need upgrades]
Michelangelo Antonioni :: The Passenger
Hal Ashby :: the remainder of his films from the 70s
John Cassavetes :: Husbands, Minnie and Moskowitz
Joel & Ethan Coen :: Blood Simple
Stanley Kubrick :: I would love to see what they would do with his films

And semi-related to directors, I would love to see Criterion release the Lone Wolf and Cub series as a box set, since they have done Zatoichi and Lady Snowblood.

Cronenberg - Shivers, Rabid, Dead Ringers, Dead Zone, Existenz and damn near anything else really.

De Palma - Body Double, Sisters, damn near anything else really.

Wes Anderson - Grand Budapest

I'd discount Dead Ringers and Sisters, as they already have spine numbers assigned to them, but thanks for the input.

Additionally, Lone Wolf and Cub & McCabe and Mrs. Miller are all but confirmed.

Peter Weir - The Truman Show

David Lynch - The Elephant Man

Sidney Lumet - Network

All the bad movies ever made since when movies are released by Criterion it immediately makes them amazing and worth buying.

[Buscemi]

On Spike Jonze: since they are licensing Warner Bros. titles now, maybe Criterion can release the original cut of Her.

False. But they put out wonderful editions. I'll be the first to admit that some Criterion titles suck (The Game; Walker; etc.).

What's wrong with the game?

I found it boring as sin with horrifically unlikeable characters. Far and away my least favorite Fincher (still having to see Dragon Tattoo and Benjamin Button).

[Alfredlynch]

Anything in my wish list plus The Lost Highway.

[dsman71]

Ishiro Honda - The Mysterians, King Kong vs Godzilla with the Japanese version, Rodan, Atragon, Mothra, Half Human

David Lynch - Lost Highway

Alfred Hitchcock - Young and Innocent, Sabotage

[imsounoriginal]

A Serious Man.

[Member-167298]

GHOST WORLD

LOST HIGHWAY

These are my two most wanted Blu-rays in general, regardless if Criterion ends up doing them or not.

Welcome to the Dollhouse and Happiness would be great too, although I think Dollhouse is with Sony and Happiness is with Lionsgate :-(

Criterion released films by Zwigoff, Lynch and Solondz before, so there is some hope.

Screw it. Godzilla box set of all of the original flicks (I forget the terminology used, but until Terror of Mechagodzilla).

[spanky87]

Roman Polanski - The Tenant

Richard Linklater - The Before Trilogy

The Showa era of Godzilla movies is what you mean. That would be cool, if those working at Criterion would consider doing more from the B movie genre. They did release the X from Outer Space in a set. Toho is a pain in the arse to deal with according those that Ive chatted with.

Thank you. But they were willing to put out all of the ones released by Classic Media on DVD as part of the Collection back in the Laserdisc era (even Godzilla's Revenge), so the chance is there.
