casablanca

i know its a long list, and i'm not expecting them all to be preserved on dvd. in fact i know most are already on dvd, just not criterion. i just think people are missing out on the great criterion commentaries supplied for these films.

The discs from your list that I have in my possession to be worked on are listed above. My first project is the Ghostbusters companion DVD, containing the Criterion material not included in Columbia's initial DVD release. After that, I'll get to some of the other Criterion laserdiscs, Disney Archive Editions, and other gems not currently found on DVD.

On a semi-related note: Does anyone know where I can get a relatively clean copy of Robotech the Movie? This is the 1986 re-edit/re-dub of the anime Megazone 23, Part 1. Please PM or e-mail me if you know where I can find it. This particular project is for a friend of mine, but I would be willing to share once it's done
