Rootbzzr: The flicks I've spent forever looking/waiting for on DVD are 200 Cigarettes and Love and Other Catastrophes.

Love and Other Catastrophes is pretty easily available on Australian DVD - unsurprising given that it's an Australian film.

It's really, really available....

I remember 200 Cigarettes well - not actually a million miles from LOC in tone...

Aussies have you covered there as well:

Google is your friend in these quests. Enjoy the films!

As for the article, Max Headroom is coming out on DVD this year, Metropolis - longest and most restored cut is also coming shortly; same with Song of the South.

The Stuff, as they point out, is available on Region 1, which is really not a problem for most of the population - and I would wager 99% of the film geek population.

Blind Fury is easy to get on DVD despite being an older one; the others are all easily able to be obtained if you really want them.

As some else mentioned, Elvis just came out on DVD (as it were).

List is a little bit on the fail side.

I'd like to see a lot of those, but I did see the chronological Godfather once and. . . no. No it should not be on DVD. It is a good thing it has been erased. Just no. I actually first saw the Godfather like that, and found it awful. Only later did I see the real films and realize why people liked those movies so much.

Metropolis is coming out soon on DVD.

The Godfather? No. No. NO. That's a hideous linear attempt to tell the story on TV which destroys the parallel stories of GF2.

The Early films of Sam Raimi, or James Cameron.

On Deadly Ground? Really? Why waste the DVD on a movie like this? That's like saying Yor, Hunter From the Future should be on DVD......

And you can get On Deadly Ground on DVD. The article is dead right. His final speech is just damn weird. You've watched 80 minutes of Seagal kicking everyone's ass and then spends 10 minutes talking about environmental damage.

Also missing:

Legend of the Forest

Robot Carnival

LaChanz: My dad took me and a friend to see Song of the South when it came out. Even as a little kid, I could see something wasn't right. I'd love to see it again if only for the nostalgia of it.


Have at it:

Part 1 (you can search YouTube for the other 9 parts):
Link (new window)

I've been praying to the DVD gods for Scavenger Hunt since 1998. Loves me that movie.

Came for Terror on the Beach (1973) TV-Movie starring Dennis Weaver and Susan Dey. Link (new window)

I would have added "The African Queen," but that is FINALLY coming out next Tuesday. Great movie.

Kyosuke: Also missing:

Legend of the Forest

Robot Carnival

Also, the Unico films. There's some childhood nostalgia I'd like back.

Vanilla Ice bought the film rights so that this movie couldn't be released to DVD. Boo!!

goochmeister42: What, no Garbage Pail Kids?

Garbage Pail Kids is on DVD.

What, no Bikini Carwash Company 2?

Rootbzzr: The flicks I've spent forever looking/waiting for on DVD are 200 Cigarettes and Love and Other Catastrophes.


I have 200 Cigarettes on DVD, so it must be out there somewhere.

The movie I keep hoping for a DVD release of is The Brinks Job. I'm a sucker for cheezy caper flicks.

Why isn't the Batman TV show on DVD? The Wikipedia article about this is very weird.

Also waiting for Men In Trees.

Kyosuke: Also missing:

Legend of the Forest

Robot Carnival

I totally agree. I would love to replace my VHS copy of Robot Carnival with a shiny, new DVD. If only for "A Tale of Two Robots."

goochmeister42: What, no Garbage Pail Kids?

The Garbage Pail Kids Movie is available on DVD.

I'd like to see an official release of Arizona Dream.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.

Song of the South is on the torrent sites, well that's what someone told me anyway.

Pandemonium!
Silly horror movie spoof with Tommy Smothers as a Mounty. I love that film.

been waiting for Switching Channels... I know everyone thinks it's bad, but I still like it.

/yes, it's a remake of a remake, so what?

SharonDeLove: Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.

Song of the South is on the torrent sites, well that's what someone told me anyway.

It's out and has been for a while. On region 4, at least.

ShadyIce: Vanilla Ice bought the film rights so that this movie couldn't be released to DVD. Boo!!

Are you serious?! I have that movie on VHS, I bought it when a video store was going out of business a decade ago. Had to pay 20 bucks because they said it was out of print. I still keep a VCR around just so I can show people its glory. I would kill for a DVD release, especially with commentary from Vanilla Ice himself.

Dog Welder: I would have added "The African Queen," but that is FINALLY coming out next Tuesday. Great movie.



I never dreamed that any mere DVD release could be so stimulating!

/*LOVE* that movie.

I want Grendel! Grendel! Grendel! on DVD! It was a simple cartoon based on the book Grendel. Great story line. It is told from the perspective of, you guessed it, Grendel, from the Beowulf story.

Great book too. Read it about 3 times already.

If someone has a link to buy, watch or youtuber let me know.

List useless without Airborne and possibly Bodyslam.

Burn one for yourself. Think of it as a backup for when your VCR finally fails and you can't replace it.

Like The Karate Kid, only with Danica McKellar in the Elisabeth Shue role and Joe Piscopo as the evil sensei. Both terrible and fantastic.

This is the only Karate Kid reboot that I'll accept.

/RIP Jonathan Brandis

I have to heartily agree with the inclusion of TDOWCP2TMY on this list: I had the movie at one point on VHS, and I still have the soundtrack.

Some of the interviews and scenes are classic, and the music wasn't half-bad, either.

Grey Street: Sidekicks:

My favorite part was when the young hero finally jumped off the girl's friendship ladder only after kicking some guy's ass.

I hope Derek Jarman's Blue gets released on Blu-Ray and 3-D.

Grandemadaca: Pandemonium!
Silly horror movie spoof with Tommy Smothers as a Mounty. I love that film.

Pandemonium! is a great movie. But an even better one (that was released on DVD, but is out of print) is Hysterical, starring the Hudson Brothers, with Richard Kiel (aka Jaws) as Captain Howdy!

"We got trouble!"
"Right here in Hellview City!"
"With a capital T and that rhymes with G and that stands for GHOUL!"
"We got Captain Howdy!"
"Right here in Hellview City!"
"With a capital C and that rhymes with Z and that stands for ZOM... bie."

Still one of my all-time favorite movies.
