A Blu-Fay Day...

As I sit here and wait for Tropical Storm/Hurricane Fay to pass me by, I decided to take a look at my "buy" list of upcoming Blu-ray releases. These are just the ones I want to get. I'm gonna go broke:

Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2 (I'm tired of waiting for The Whole Bloody Affair version) - 9/9
Speed Racer (WB skimped on the audio; I guess after its remarkable failure at the box office, the studio seems to want to bury it for good; nonetheless, I loved the film - it's a hoot and it should still look and sound pretty darn amazing on Blu-ray) - 9/16
Risky Business - 9/16
The Godfather Collection - 9/23
L.A. Confidential - 9/23
Iron Man - 9/30
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the original, of course) - 9/30
Ghostbusters - October (TBA)
Sleeping Beauty - 10/7
Young Frankenstein - 10/7
The Ultimate Matrix - 10/14
Poltergeist - 10/14
Assorted James Bond On Blu-ray - 10/21
The Polar Express (2D and 3D special edition) - 10/28
Shawshank Redemption - 11/4 (may be delayed to 2009)
JFK - 11/11
Band of Brothers - 11/11
Wall-E - 11/18
Casablanca - 12/2
Dr. Strangelove or: How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb - 12/9
Taxi Driver - 2/3/09

I had Amityville Horror and Carrie on my list, but MGM has dropped all the extras that were on the last DVDs while still pricing them at $40 a pop. No thanks. A big slap on the hand (and the forehead) for those folks. Rental time for those titles...
