I wonder what the Hidden Fortress will look like on Blu Ray.
Toho has already released some of the Kurosawa films to blu ray in japan.
Though i have not been able to find any screenshots online.
I would also like to see Yojimbo, Sanjuro.
I wish also wish Criterion would put out Sanshiro Sugata 1 and 2, known in the west as judo saga but they probably don't have the rights to it considering the lack of a laserdisc or dvd from them.
Ran was scrapped for rights reasons which was lame, but Kagemusha was the replacement.
Toho is also putting out a 1080p remaster of the original gojira/godzilla.
It will get a stateside release, but who knows if it will be the same master. The classic media one was an abomination in comparison to the restored japan release on dvd. Even the BFI release was better.
I wonder if the rights Holders for the old King Kong, are doing a blu ray transfer. I would like to see some willis o'brien stop motion on blu like that or the lost world. Also the entire catlalog of Harryhausen Including his swan song The Clash of the Titans.
I also want to see these 2 Bond films on Blu Ray, Goldeneye and Tomorrow Never Dies. If they can put shitfests like The World is not Enough and Die Another day on blu why not the other brosnan flicks?
Well i know someone botched the aspect ratio in the second dvd release for goldeneye so what is the chance they will ever offer that on blu ray consider it probably means a new scan.
After seeing the Adventures of Robin Hood being on blu ray i would also like to see the sea hawk, and captain blood. As well as The Mark of Zorro Tyrone Power version, the black pirate with douglas fairbanks, scaramouche with stewart granger.
The restored Fritz Lang Metropolis is supposed to come out next year from KINO video, if no more delays happen. I wish Kino would put out the douglas fairbanks catalog on blu ray, silent films with organ scores and intertitles on blu ray,lol what a concept. The black pirate technicolor version is for me the must have of all fairbanks swashbucklers.
