October Releases - Which Will You Buy?

Gindhouse (already in the post)
Mad Max
Robocop
Beauty and The Beast
Last Of The Mohicans
Three Kings
Predators
Rocky Horror Picture Show
Moulin Rouge (Already Have)
Romeo and Juliet
Apocalypse Now (3 Disc)
Back To the Future (UK tin)
Aliens (standard they are not getting too much cash from me)
Catch and Release / It Could Happen to You

It's going to take me awhile to compile my list because it's long and expensive.

However, looking over October selections in that link, I was stunned to see THE CALIFORNIA KID from 1974. I mean...really stunned. It was a made-for-TV movie that played a big role in shaping the modern hot rod and custom car movement. I saw it when it first aired. I was 15 or 16 and it's always stayed with me. I don't know if I ever saw it rerun here.

Beauty and the Beast (Diamond Edition)

The Exorcist: Extended Director's Cut

Grindhouse: Special Edition (if I can get it at a low price - not in a hurry due to the lossy audio)
The Human Centipede (maybe)

The Last of the Mohicans (depends on reviews)

Mad Max (depends on reviews)

Robocop Trilogy (depends on reviews)

Three Kings

Apocalypse Now: Full Disclosure Edition

Alien Anthology

T.B.

There are caps of RC2 and RC3 in the thread

Ohhh, it's going to be an expensive Rocktober...

* Ocean's 11 (1960)
* The Mission
* Grindhouse
* Splice
* Last of the Mohicans
* Life is Beautiful
* Arn: Knight Templar
* Predators
* Alien Anthology
* Black Death (import)
* True Legend (import)

Ohh I missed The Mission! Add that to my list

Maniac
The Exorcist
Grindhouse
Mad Max
Apocalypse Now
The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Psycho
Seven Samurai
Alien Anthology
Back to the Future Trilogy

I'll eventually catch up with all of them.

How To Train Your Dragon
Apocalypse Now

Alien Anthology is a strong posibility, just love the first two so much and it may be tough to resist (I'll literally give away the other two titles to friends, they will not reside on my shelf alongside movies I enjoy). Will depend on the price I guess.

Will buy immediately (barring any terrible transfers or other deal-breaking oddities):

Alien Anthology
Apocalypse Now Full Disclosure Edition
Back to the Future Trilogy
Beauty and the Beast
The Maltese Falcon
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre
Seven Samurai
Se7en

Maybe/wait for deals:

The Darjeeling Limited
The Magician
The Mission
Paths of Glory
Planet Earth Special Edition
The Secret of Kells
Three Kings

Beauty and the Beast
How to Train Your Dragon
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
Back to the Future Trilogy
and maybe Aliens Anthology

Life is Beautiful???

It's an Alliance release (yes, I know), arriving Oct 5th in Canada....avail on Amazon.ca at a great price. Even tho it's Alliance, it's a foregone conclusion that it'll be better than the non-anamorphic dvd. At least it's 1080p, and Alliance has been pretty good with providing lossless audio (yes, even with 'The English Patient', which sported DTS-HD MA -- altho it was only 1080i). Anyhoo, I LOVE 'Life is Beautiful', which so rightfully deserved its 'Best Foreign Language Film' Oscar win a few years back ....can't wait.

Here's the official announcem't on Blu-ray.com...
