What are some good movies by Lions Gate? - Blu-ray Forum

sj001 · 08-23-2007, 03:53 AM

I am not too familiar with the studio so forgive my ignorance... but what are some their major releases?

Are they an older movie studio with a new name... or a new one that bought an old one out?

American Psycho is one of my all-time favorite films. Crash may not have deserved an Oscar, but it was a great movie. The Descent is one of the best horror movies in years. There's the great sci-fi movies Total Recall and Terminator 2 for the AHNALD! fans. And of course, First Blood.

They don't have much out there, but I like Crank, Employee of the Month, First Blood, & Stargate from them. Would depend on your movie preferences, of course.

Lord of War, great movie if you havent seen it pick it up its well worth it.

The Saw films, 1000 Corpses and Devils Rejects, The Descent

Some of my faves

"Buffalo 66" - being from Rochester, you'll really appreciate this one. Wasn't really made for high def, but it's one of my favourite DVDs - very cool and funny movie. "Requiem for a Dream" -- not for all tastes, but I was quite blown away by it...

Under-appreciated, the exclusive Blu-ray studio support we get from Lionsgate, in my opinion...

Saw 1.2.3
Crash
Crank
The Descent
American Psycho
Rize,Grizzly Man, Happy Endings, Hard Candy, Rules of Attraction...although none of these are on Blu Ray

and Lionsgate is kind of an inbetween one, they arent small but they arent huge either. Been around for 10 years or so, I "think" they are based out of Canada but not sure. Check out their site for more info and movies.http://www.Lionsgate.com

Cool, the first Darko fan I've seen on the boards. Welcome.

Thanks...now for Fox to reveal the BD version of Donnie Darko!

Moneydemon3 · 08-23-2007, 04:25 AM

I'm a huge fan of Young Guns. I wish they would put the second one out on blu as well.

Donnie Darko is a cult classic that would not only sell well on a Blu-ray remaster in North America, it would clean house in the UK...
