I wonder if anybody knows of a site where you can wish for movies to be released into DVD's  ? I'm replacing all my VHS-movies into DVD's, and I have many favourites that are'nt on DVD yet  . I know there is a site called tvshowsondvd.com, but I don't think you can wish for movies there.

Looked a bit better and found
this,
this,
this,
this and
this.

Unfortunately, I don't think any of these will carry much weight with the studios...

Looking at those pages, I just noticed the African Queen has not been released to DVD.  Does anyone know why or if there are plans to make a release?

Afaik there is a French release of this one, 2-Disc including lots of bonus, good picture, english audio and subs. I don't own it (yet) but it seems to be the way to go

African Queen R2 UK is also available, and very cheaply... Rewind suggest it's the best one they've seen but they haven't seen the French one

You can get the Scandinavian release of African Queen very cheap here:
http://www.axelmusic.dk/productDetails/5709624011304 (there's an english flag in the upper right corner for english language)

It's region free but you need to be PAL compatible. I don't know if there are forced subs but I own it so I can check when I get home if anyone are interested. The first pressings were digipaks, I don't know if they changed to keep cases though.

Thanks  . I think you're right though, about the studios. I'll have to do like I did with The Club (1994). That's one of my favourites and you can't buy it anywere. I recorded it from TV once. I'd really want it on DVD, so a few years back I contacted the director of the movie by e-mail about this wish, and he replied! He said he was going to look in to it. But then I never heard from him again  . Maybe it's time to e-mail a few people about DVD-requests ... You never know. Some of them might even listen!
