I'd be interested in some.. They gave Roots Search an LD which everyone says its bad.

1) Star Wars II The Clone Wars DD / DTS.
2) Star Wars III Return Of The Sith DD / DTS.
3) I, Robot DTS.
4) X Men 2 DTS.
5) X Men 3 The Last Stand DTS.
6) Fantastic Four DTS.
7) Fantastic Four ''Silver Surfer'' DTS.
8) Iron Man 1 and 2 DTS.

The cover art would have been great, and the Japanese versions with OBI's Superb.

Never seen Roots Search.

Three personal highlights I would have loved to add to my collection:

Ike! Ina-chuu Takkyuubu aka Ping Pong Club, from 1995.
H2 (1995~96) -> apparently the only Adachi Anime that did not get released on LD!
Kyou Kara Ore wa!! OVA delinquents series 1993~1997.

Many TV series didn't make it, while some of the movies or specials of them are actually out on LD.
For example try finding Houkto no Ken TV series or Slam Dunk series... or shall i mention Dragon Ball Z?

Not to forget several dozens more titles from 1998~1999 that did not get the LD treatment anymore
(Examples Dokkiri Doctor, Colorful, Excel Saga, etc.)

Well, I am assuming that this discussion includes ONLY titles which actually COULD HAVE been released (i.e. nothing after the year 2000 cutoff). That being said, here are a few of my "wishlist" titles. I divide them into three categories for your consideration:

1. Titles which were announced but cancelled: Horror of the Blood Monsters Special Edition, The Car Special Edition, Boris Karloff Mr. Wong Collection, Stir of Echoes, Burnt Offerings, McLintock!, The Ghoul, The Visitor, Lone Ranger Vol. 4, The Devonsville Terror, Teenage Exorcist, Prehistoric Women, The Brotherhood of Satan, Taste the Blood of Dracula, Amazing Transparent Man/Strange Illusion, Best of Bogart boxset, Fun in Acapulco letterboxed, G.I. Blues letterboxed, Criterion Collection Godzilla films, Gamera letterboxed editions.

2. Titles which should have been released, but for some unknown reason were not: The Wicker Man, Fade to Black, A Night in Casablanca, Trilogy of Terror, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, Flaming Star, The Sentinel, The Blood on Satan's Claw, Food of the Gods (the original), The Legacy, Tuck Everlasting, The Hollywood Knights, Night of the Comet, The Next Voice You Hear, Telefon, Going in Style, They Call Me Bruce?, Helter Skelter.

3. Titles which I can understand why they were not released, but I would like to have seen anyway: Horror of Party Beach, Reefer Madness, The Sinister Urge, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, They Saved Hitler's Brain, Evilspeak, Navy vs. the Night Monsters.

I wish they would've made some discs of "Max Headroom - Season Two". Fortunately a DVD version of the complete series was released a while ago but I would love to see them on LaserDisc too!

The Wheeler & Woolsey comedies missed by Image Entertainment (They released 10 W&W films on LaserDisc). They were RKO's hotest stars through the depression years:

"Rio Rita" (1929)
"The Cuckoos" (1930)
"Dixiana" (1930)
"Cracked Nuts" (1931) announced but cancelled
"Caught Plastered" (1931)
"Girl Crazy" (1932)
"Hold 'Em Jail: (1932)
"So This Is Africa" (their only film made away from RKO. Highly butchered prior to theatrical release)
"Cockeyed Cavaliers" (1934)
"On Again-Off Again" (1937)

RELEASED ON LD (ALL BY IMAGE):

HOOK, LINE & SINKER
PEACH O'RENO
DIPLOMANIACS
HIPS, HIPS, HOORAY!
KENTUCKY KERNELS
THE NITWITS
THE RAINMAKERS
SILLY BIILIES
MUMMY'S BOYS
HIGH FLYERS

All of the Wheeler & Woolsey releases by Image are very high in quality, made by 3M or Kuraray. I'd LOVE to have all of their films on LD.

*"Dixiana," with the Technicolor reels restored, has been released on DVD by The Roan Group. I own a copy.

STAY AWESOME!

It never made any sense to me that all the silent films David Shepard prepared for Kino video made it to LD except the Lon Chaney collection. That should have been a no brainer!

Requiem for a Dream and Pi. The cover artwork for the both of them was already pretty awesome but i would have loved to see what kind of Japanese artwork came from those two titles.

"For the past four years, male modelling has had a shadow cast over it by one man and five syllables: Der-ek Zoo-land-er."
Zoolander

Red Planet, Mission to Mars. A.I. Artificial Intelligence. 2 out of 3 on Blu-ray at least.

Exterminator 2. I know its bad but can't still help wondering why any distributor never tried to cash out on first one's fame...

Hondo

4 words for you . . .

"A Golan-Globus Production"

. . . yep, Cannon Films (known for their Ninja and fad dance movies of the 80s) had very little shame in trying to make money from any title they could. I kind of imagine they made "Exterminator 2" because James Cameron's "The Terminator" was released not too long before, and were hoping that people would think that "Exterminator 2" was the sequel to Cameron's movie

Reading the thread title, my immediate answer is Eyes Wide Shut on LD, preferably a full frame edition version for maximum resolution and DTS. That would have completed my Kubrick LD collection for one thing. I'm happy to have seen it at least once in earlier posts.

Soderbergh's Solaris is another from earlier posts that makes me take notice.

Looking back I think Timeline would make a good LaserDisc. Oh, wait I have a couple of them downstairs...what's that? A DTS copy? Wow!

Yeah, pretty sure Solaris is on LD too. Let me go dig them out of my vault. I think I have all of them


The AC3:


The DTS:


And there's at least 3 Criterion's out there:






Watching AC3 version tonight...

I like the Solaris "I wish" laserdisc covers I have the R2 I find the an interesting love story with great Dolby Stereo Digital mix the atmosphere of the effects on the space station feels like I'm there.

How about the Japanese version as well.

FLCL 1-4: when these went only to DVD, that's when I knew LD was over. I LOVE this series.

Max Headroom: Why only season one came out (which itself is very scarce) is puzzling. A big box with the movie and both TV series with some other stuff thrown in would have been amazing.

Watching THE THING 2011 signature Collection tonight in Dolby Stereo Digital AC-3 THX.



Now watching THE THING 2011 again in Dolby Digital surround-EX THX.



Now watching THE THING 2011 dts THX Laserdisc. Yeah it would be cool to see Laserdisc resurrected.
