Hitchcock titles you'd like to see on Blu-ray - Blu-ray Forum

Davyblu · 02-18-2008, 12:20 AM

With the excitement of Warner's announcement that one of its classic releases on Blu for next year will be "North by Northwest" (which looked awesome already on S-DVD), what other Hitchcock movies would you like to see released? And yes, Paramount does own a huge chunk of them!

My top choices:

Vertigo
The Birds
Marnie
Rear Window

My only concern about the latter, Rear Window, is that the most recent restoration was pretty grainy due to the elements they had to use; I'm not sure if Blu-ray would bring out much more detail than we've already seen.

All of them? I avoided buying the Universal box set (I already had half of them) because I knew that some day I'd want to buy them again in high def.

RUR · 02-18-2008, 12:39 AM

All of them, and I don't even have a Hitchcock avatar.

Paradiso · 02-18-2008, 12:40 AM

Like the previous two responses here: all of them. Bring'em on....hey at least we have North By Northwest coming this year (or was it 2009?).

Jim L · 02-18-2008, 12:40 AM

Torn Curtain
North by Northwest
Psycho

to name a few more . . .

Blu Titan · 02-18-2008, 12:54 AM

I will end up buying every single Hitchcock BD that comes out.

So does Universal.

(Well, okay, not all of them, just Psycho, The Birds, Rear Window, Vertigo, Rope, Torn Curtain, Frenzy, Family Plot, a few of the others and the TV series, but apart from those...)

ChiefSneed · 02-26-2008, 04:52 AM

Here's my want list in order:

1. Psycho
2. Vertigo
3. North By Northwest
4. Rear Window
5. Dial M For Murder (with optional 3-D version too)
6. Rope
7. The Byrds

Hell I'd take any Hitchcock on Blu-Ray

Scripture · 02-26-2008, 08:45 AM

I'm in the camp with....all of them! If I only had to pick from maybe one or two of them? I'd go with 'Vertigo' and 'North By Northwest'.

Kirsty_Mc · 02-26-2008, 10:40 AM

All of them for me too. A necessary part of any serious movie collection.

Cordre69 · 02-27-2008, 12:40 AM

My vote is for The Birds *nods*

tommyboy81 · 02-27-2008, 01:02 AM

1. Rear Window
2. Psycho
3. North by Northwest
4. The Birds
5. The Birds 2
(no wait a sec. He didn't do that one.

)

Stephie_is_a_dork · 02-27-2008, 01:20 AM

Psycho!

And I would take Rear Window over Disturbia anyday!
