Tiamat, yes. Can we name TV shows?

War Planets
Roswell Conspiracies
Starcom
Spiral Zone (came out briefly, then disappeared out of print)
Visionaries
Inhumanoids
The rest of Gargoyles (S2, part2)

W.I.T.C.H. (Hardly as old as the rest, but I'm demanding a couple of full-season sets anyway. And maybe a third season and a couple of movies while we're at it. . .)

"The Hanging Tree" with Gary Cooper. One of the best westerns ever made.

Awesome choice. I'm still waiting for that one too.

The TV movie Intensity.
It's based on the novel by Dean Koontz, and features John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox from Scrubs) as a crazy serial killer guy. Very intense, McGinley is perfect, and it's quite long so nothing is rushed.

For film, I'd like to see "Tough Turf" from early 80's with Kim Richards, who was also the kid in Witch Mountain.

For TV Movies, I'd like "When Every Day Was the Fourth of July" from 1976ish.

And for TV shows, nothing more wanted than The Six Million Dollar Man.

"The Archer: Fugitive from the Empire," which was a made-for-TV fantasy movie that was basically a pilot that didn't get picked up. I'm sure it's quite horrible, but it's part of my childhood.

And speaking of "quite horrible but part of my childhood..." Why not the Star Wars Holiday Special? I have a bootleg, but would hope that an official release would be less unwatchable.

Reboot actually was released on DVD, back before Mainframe(the studio)Was bought out by Rainmaker
now, not sure if this is good news news or not, but, they are actually "relaunching" Reboot. started with a fan-generated comic, available at www.reboot.com and now they are making 3 feature length films, all in house.

and Cybersnark, when looking for War Planets, try searching for Shadow Raiders, it was also made by mainframe, which is a canadian company, and there was some kind of weird law up there that "children's programming" couldn't have the word "War" in the title. So in Canada, War Planets was called Shadow Raiders. This is also why, in Canada, Beast Wars : Transformers, was called Beasties : Transformers.

Wacky Canadian Laws...

and also just a quick fun fact:
Mainframe, now Rainmaker, have done all the VFX for Stargate SG-1,& Atlantis, and their associated movies.

Well played, Clerks...

That was the one and only time Lucas completely turned control of Star Wars over to someone else, and he's made it very clear he regrets it, and hates the product. Heck, the "pull quote" on my bootleg copy is this quote from Lucas: "If I had the time and a hammer, I'd destroy every copy."

Plus, and this is just speculation, but all the pop music in it would likely be a rights issue, as there were certainly no DVD (or likely home video) rights secured.

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."

Oh, I'm well aware of that (being born'n'raised in Canada), I just figure everyone knows the American titles better.
