Show of hands, how many kids here have never seen "Krull", in theaters or video? (Certainly not in theaters...)

Like "Neverending Story", this movie singlehandedly SYMBOLIZES why early/mid-80's big-budget fantasy movies were cool. One viewing will explain an entire generation.

I saw it theatrically, I was 6 though

I always saw Chronicles of Riddick as "What if Krull had $120 million..."

La Bamba.

Solely to see Chief Lou Diamond Philips.

On behalf of myself and the other 110 people who voted for Munchhausen -- THANK YOU, SONY!

What i do not understand why baron is getting released before ghostbusters which has the most votes and i would like to see all the nightmare on elm movies released as well as legend of billie jean and howard the duck and karate kid

dahoover · 01-08-2008, 02:41 AM

We need The Natural and The Karate Kid in Blu-Ray, especially The Karate Kid.

Kendall · 01-08-2008, 03:24 AM

Technically it was released in 79, but the reason I voted for the "Muppets Take Manhattan" is that I really want to see a remastered Muppet Movie... I could even do without the rest, just the first one would suffice.

Geech · 01-08-2008, 03:34 AM

Ghostbusters, Real Genius, See No Evil, Hear No Evil

zerohour · 01-08-2008, 03:36 AM

I want to see the original Revenge of the Nerds on blu-ray. Not the crappy sequels though, just the first one.

Cordre69 · 01-08-2008, 03:39 AM

Maybe it's because I was born in '82 but basically none of those movies are at all appealing to me. I voted on maybe 3.

zerohour · 01-11-2008, 02:44 AM

I would also like to add "Who Frammed Roger Rabbit."

Not a Sony title.

However it is scheduled for release this year on BD in Australia and France, so there's hope...

PeechCobblerPie · 01-11-2008, 02:49 AM

I only voted for labyrinth.... all of the other titles are NOT blu-worthy and will receive none of my money if they go blu

My bad. I need to pay more attention to the thread.

Ghandi---8 Oscars

Glory---3 Oscars

A Soldier's Story---3 Oscar nominations

The Natural---4 Oscar nominations

A Chorus Line---3 Oscar nominations

The Last Emperor---9 Oscars

Tootsie--1 Oscar, 9 Oscar nominations

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen---4 Oscar nominations

Absence of Malice---3 Oscar nominations

A Passage to India---2 Oscars, 9 Oscar nominations

You're entitled to spend your money how you like...

But I would respectfully disagree that Labyrinth is the only "blu-worthy" title on the list.

kapow! · 01-11-2008, 11:07 AM

Milo and Otis is seriously the craziest animal movie ever. Some of the situations the studio put these animals through is down right shocking. Pug Vs Bear anyone?

Stand By Me is also a classic.

I'd die to see Bloodsport and Kickboxer on Blu too. 80's Van Damme 4life!
