What releases are you most looking forward to?

Thread Starter 
Just ordered my samsung 1200 and am excited to get my blu ray collection going. Already picked up a few on the frys sale and have casino royale and Black Hawk Down coming in the mail.

I was over at the hometheaterforum looking at the threads that show release dates for soon to be released blu rays and ones that will be released but do not have a date as of yet. Looks like there are some pretty good titles coming out in the future. Was close to going hd-dvd for batman and matrix, but saw that they will be on both formats.

The ones I am marking down for purchase are:

Fifth Element (if the quality is good)
300
House of 1000 Corpses
Batman Begins
Band of Brothers
Batman Begins
Friday
Kill Bill 1 and 2
Matrix set

Now only if I can find out if/when the release date for Sin City and The Goonies

Add LOTR to my original list as well as Gladiator. I didnt see those listed as future titles to be released.

Anyone know about Goonies or Sin City being released. The Hd-dvd forum has mentioned Goonies being released, but havent found it in a blu ray software forum search

I'm looking forward to too many releases to list. The one that doesn't have a date but has only shown up in teaser trailers though is Sin City.

*blows the dust off this thread* I figured somebody else had to be waiting for this, I really want this in HD. It never really got a proper Anamorphic release in region 1, so hopefully this will be on the list for a catalog release soon.

Predator is my biggest one right now.... its such a classic and has a little Sci-Fi mixed in with a little horror mixed in with some good 'ol military action/drama. Its like Aliens but it takes place in a jungle on earth. Plus, the current SD transfer is pretty horrible, IMO.

A few others:

Chronicles of Narnia
The Kubrick stuff(most of it, not all of it)
LOTR
