There was a lengthy period a few years back when I considered Universal to be bottom-of-the-barrel in terms of getting classics out on Blu-ray, but suddenly you're producing great box sets and individual titles on your own label, plus licensing out like crazy to multiple smaller labels. Please don't think me ungrateful for jotting down some of your back catalog (including older Paramount films that you now control) that really deserves similar Blu-ray treatment:
*These are titles already available on Blu, but so far only from other countries.
THE HEIRESS
FIVE GRAVES TO CAIRO
ICEMAN
BEAU GESTE
DESTRY RIDES AGAIN
W.C. FIELDS - His best (especially THE BANK DICK, NEVER GIVE A SUCKER AN EVEN BREAK, IT'S A GIFT, etc.)
INVISIBLE MAN BOX SET (with A&C MEET; INVISIBLE WOMAN; etc.)*
CREATURE BOX SET (w/3D REVENGE OF THE CREATURE)
ABBOTT AND COSTELLO -Their best films (HOLD THAT GHOST, TIME OF THEIR LIVES, Many more)
THE SUSPECT (Charles Laughton)
CRISS CROSS
WINCHESTER '73
BEND OF THE RIVER*
FAR COUNTRY
TARANTULA*
THIS ISLAND EARTH*
FLOWER DRUM SONG
CAPTAIN NEWMAN, M.D.
ARABESQUE*
MARY, QUEEN OF SCOTS
ANNE OF THE THOUSAND DAYS*
DAY OF THE JACKAL*
SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE
THE GREAT WALDO PEPPER*
THE BIG FIX (BLU)
PIRATES OF PENZANCE
MASK*
BILOXI BLUES
DEATH TAKES A HOLIDAY
THE CAT AND THE CANARY (1939)
GHOST BREAKERS
CHRISTMAS IN JULY
DR. CYCLOPS
THE LADY EVE
THE GLASS KEY*
THE BLUE DAHLIA*
ROAD TO MOROCCO
THIS GUN FOR HIRE
WAKE ISLAND
GOING MY WAY
MIRACLE OF MORGAN'S CREEK
THE LOST WEEKEND*
THE PALEFACE
Pretty overwhelming list, but I'm sure we'd all be grateful to see at least some of these upgraded to HD. Many thanks, and keep up the great work you've been doing during the past two years or so!
