What's one of your favorite films that's not out on DVD?

[Gothic Sponge]

For me it's "Some Girls" with Patrick Dempsey and Jennifer Connelly.

1. "The Medusa Touch"

with Richard Burton. Great psychological thriller about a man who can destroy things just by looking at them. It's even out of print on VHS.

[Dookus]

2. The African Queen

GRRRR!

[Nevernose]

5. You sure that's not out?

At least not in a crappy version? I could've sworn I'd rented at the library a couple of years ago...

And I don't particularly like Katherine Hepburn -- so why is she in so many of my favorite movies ("The African Queen", and especially "The Lion in Winter")?

[Dookus]

16. Pretty sure

I've never seen it and it's not available on DVD at Amazon.

And damn you, LOVE Katherine Hepburn!

[Lorien]

3. "Rosencranz and Guildenstern are dead"

(sorry about any misspellings)

Available in the UK, but not the US.

[Nevernose]

6. Wow, been along time since I've seen that.

Do I get impatient and buy it on VHS, or do I wait for the DVD?

[Rosco T.]

20. Go to WalMart/Target/Amazon... pick up a Philips 642 DVD player...

* Turn on player and open tray.
* On remote: 7-8-9-OK-0
* Power off

Power on.. the player will now play DVD from ANY region and
do a PERFECT PAL > NTSC conversion...

then order "Rosencranz and Guildenstern are Dead" from Amazon.co.uk
and enjoy

(I love my region-free equipment.. just got a box today with 'Brittas Empire' (series 1-4), 'Lovejoy' (series 1 and 2), 'Johnnathan Creek' (series 1 - 4), "Black Books" (series 1 and 2)", "One Foot in the Grave" (series 1), "Survivors" (series 1) and "Blake's 7" (series 1) - NONE of which are available over here...

[Bat Boy]

4. "Funny Bones"

I haven't checked lately, but last I looked it wasn't available.

That, and I'm still not happy with the availability of Marx Brothers movies.

7. The Last Unicorn...

I have the book (two of them), the soundtrack but no movie! Wah! :cry:

[Nevernose]

9. Out on DVD. I own it.

I bought under the guise of "buying it for my daughter," though I must confess that I seem to like it more than she does.

There's a cool-sounding techno version of the theme song available by a band called "Groove Coverage," BTW. The LAst Unicron with a beat.

[dorktv]

17. Hmmm...The real Last Unicorn? I have been burned before...This has

Jeff Bridges, Mia Farrow, and Shmendrick the Magician.

[Nevernose]

18. That's the one

8. The ORIGINAL "Blade Runner"

(NOT the director's cut). Also "Hearts of Darkness" (documentary of the making of "Apocalypse Now). And the original "Starwars" trilogy. :mad:

[CanuckAmok]

10. Hears of Darkness is out on DVD

I've rented it. Maybe it's out of print now?

[Nevernose]

11. An expanded version comes out next month

WIth the original version and the Director's version both watchable on one of those special three-disc things. Personally, I liked the voice-overs, and the reason Brion James got cut wasn't because of the studio, it was because it was poorly acted.

[jpgray]

13. I heard Ford and Scott didn't like the narration

And wasn't a happier ending tacked on?

[CanuckAmok]

15. exactly.

In fact, some of the narration isn't even Ford--it's a sound-alike.

[jpgray]

12. The normal Star Wars movies

I'm no fanboy, but if I have kids I'd like to show them the good versions of those films.

[Nevernose]

14. GREEDO DIDN'T SHOOT FIRST!!!

There, I feel better just having said it.

I don't like to be clasified as a fanboy either (mostly I like the remake and epsiodes one and two), but I have an original bootleg from '79 that I still make my kid watch, just so she completely understands that Greedo does not shoot first. Neurotic, yes; fanboy, no.

[ForrestGump]

19. "The Gumball Rally"

Convoy, too, I think. was out of print until pretty recently, and I'm still waiting for widescreen releases of All Of Me and Vacation (oh, yeah, and the first Karate KidVacation the sequels are available in widescreen but the first installments are only out in fullscreen).

[Rosco T.]

21. You mean "National Lampoon's Vacation", it *is* out in widescreen...
