What old movies from the last 50 years...
« on: January 08, 2003, 03:11:17 PM »
would you most like to see come out on CDs?

Given the fact that the companies involved in this industry will probably bring out every movie made in the last five years first, no matter how much they stank, I wonder how long it'll be before some of the oldies are brought out?  Things like "Stalag 17" for instance.

I think I've seen "The Flying Leathernecks" on DvD (saw it in the store that is).

Movies I want to see come out on DvD:

Star Wars I, II, III (Erm... IV, V, VI)
Indiana Jones Trilogy
Real Men (80's)
3 O'Clock High (80')

Those are the ones I keep looking for.  Most of the rest I just stumble upon.

Definitely on the Star Wars and Indian Jones (which is my favorite between the two by far).  Haven't seen Real Men.

3 O'Clock High - absolutely one of the funniest movies I have ever seen.  Buddy Rebell (I think that was his name).  The part with the football helmet with the skull in it getting knocked off and into Jerry's lap was hilarious.

Are you talking bout the movie where the kid has to fight the high school bully after school? That was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Definate four and a half stars.

Its "Buddy Revell" and he doesn't like to be touched.

Did you know this was a Spielberg film originally?  He asked to have his name removed from the credits.  I believe that is why it was never released on VHS or DvD.
