My suggestions:

 

Goodbye Dragon Inn

The Road Home

Yellow Earth

Farewell My Concubine

To Live

The Story of Qiu Ju

Hero

House of Flying Daggers

Vive L'Amour

Café Lumière

Millennium Mambo

 

Basically almost anything by Zhang Yimou, Hou Hsiao-Hsien, or Tsai Ming-Liang.

have seen it in theatre. But i watched which is cencored editon. very pitty. 2D animation and crime story like Snatch or crazy stone(by Ning Hao) and fate express(release in 2018 in theatre). we give it up, boxoffice is terrible and audience is not so much.

Yes, I know. But those are really the only Chen Kaige films I like, whereas I would buy anything by those other three directors.

However, I still will keep an eye out for his new projects =)

Sometimes I don't understand how some titles have a premium edition, when some titles like those listed above, do not even have a steelbook worthy of their rank ...

It’s all down to getting the home theatre distribution rights. An example being the Wes Anderson movies other than the most recent two weeks they have all had criterions the newest 2 titles are released by Fox and both had steelbooks. 

[fierysadness]

Would love releases for:

mother!

Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)

Gone Girl

Cloud Atlas

Hereditary

Scream

Atonement

Drag Me to Hell

Maybe too late but... to dream is free for all big and little collectors. Some might be possible, others totally impossible, some profitable, and others not. Seeing these things from outside, just as a fan, always seems much easier than it really is.

 

Films with an interesting sales potential for a collector's edition:

• Memento. All Nolan's has great sales, and for this film there is only the old Kimchidvd edition.
• The usual suspects. I can't understand why no one tried to do a great edition with this fabulous film...
• Magnolia. By Paul Thomas Anderson, a popular modern classic.
• Zodiac / The Curious Case of Benjamin Button / Panic Room. David Fincher's classics. 
• The favourite. An awarded 2018 Yorgos Lanthimos film.
• Miss Sloane. All the special editions that have come out in Korea have been sold immediately. And it can be done better.
• Robin Hood. This Ridley Scott film has some collector editions but no one in the current "collector editions" usual way. As American Gangster. 
• The silence of the lambs / Hannibal / The Red Dragon / Hannibal Rising. Hannibal Lecter's character has a whole legion of fans and not a collector's edition.
• The Darjeeling Limited. One of the few Wes Anderson films without any collector edition, only an old french digibook. 
• Last action hero. A sold Zavvi steelbook and no one collector edition.
• Lost in translation. No one collectors edition for this famous Sofia Coppola film.
• The Straight Story / Blue Velvet / Lost Highway / Inland Empire. Really, all Lynch films uses to have a lot of fans and good sales. We'll see how works "Wild at heart".
• Nocturnal Animals. A known successful designer Tom Ford film.
• Unbreakable. The only one of this Shyamalan's trilogy without a collectors edition.
• Dead Poets Society. Who never watched this film?
• Godfellas / Racing Bull. It's Scorsese, my friends.
• Mamma mia. A real blockbuster.
• Basic Instinct. It is required to include the icebreaker
• Flash Gordon. A film with a lot of fans and only two steelbooks without any more.
• Pirates of the Caribbean. Obviously, a good bussiness opportunity, and may be an impossible desire. 
• The Godfather Trilogy. Always waiting the definitive edition........
• The Blues Brothers. A classic with a lot of fans always waiting too.
• The doors / Natural Born Killers, by Oliver Stone. 
• When Harry met Sally. I've never founded a collectors edition.

Renowned classic movies that would add status to the retailer and bring popularity:

• Paths of Glory (Kubrick) Really... all Kubrick. The most of them without a collectors edition.
• Death in Venice (Visconti)
• La dolce vita (Fellini)
• Blow Up (Antonioni)
• Some like hot (Wilder)
• The grapes of warth (Ford)
• Metropolis (Lang)
• Gandhi  (Attenborough)
• The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (Huston)
• The Party (Blake Edwards)

Asian films that do not yet have a collector's edition in blu-ray or 4K, or that is not available:

• In the Mood for love (Kar Wai)
• 2046 (Kar Wai)
• Chunking  Express (Kar Wai)
• The Grandmaster  (Kar Wai)
• House of flying daggers (Yimou)
• Hero (Yimou)
• The Assassin (Hsiao Hsien)
• Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Lee)
• Mua he chieu thang dung (A la verticale de l’été)  (Tran Anh Hung)

Other films by well-known and / or awarded directors who have never had a collector's edition, and that I would very subjectively love to buy one day:

• Breaking the waves (Von Trier) (Multi award-winning contemporary classic that has never known a collector's edition in any format)
• Fitzcarraldo (Werner Herzog) 
• Cat People (Paul Schrader)
• Cold War (Pawel Pawlikowski) I think it will be one special edicion in Korea but...
• The Producers (Mel Brooks)
• Last tango in Paris (Bertolucci)
• The tree of life (Terrence Malick)
• Funny games (Haneke, original version)
• The fisher King (Terry Gilliam)
• Solaris (Soderberg)

And others i like:

• Maggie. With Arnold Schwarzenegger. 
• Girl with a Pearl Earring. Few films will give so much play and opportunities at a visual level for the design of a beautiful edition.
• The Science of Sleep. A great Michel Gondry film.
• One from the heart. Francis Ford Coppola.
• Broken flowers. Jim Jarmusch.
• Tropic Thunder. Ben Stiller.
• Brubaker. Stuart Rosenberg.
• 2010 The year we make contact. Peter Hyams.
• Being John Malkovich. Spike Jonze.
• The Sheltering Sky. Bernardo Bertolucci.
• The swimmer. I love this rare and impressive film with Burt Lancaster.
• Hair / One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest / Man on the moon. Three famous classic films by Milos Forman.
• The Devil's advocate. 

And other great films people had put in this thread lime American History X, Denis Villeneuve - Enemy, Das Boot, Coherence, and many others...

 

And last, TV-shows. A big a large market segment that often does not know what a collector's edition is:

• Hannibal
• Chernobyl
• Sharp Objects
• The leftovers

Some will be more interesting, some will not, some will be more viable, some will not, but ideas and suggestions will not be missing.

OOHHH YYYEESSSS PLEASE @Tristan_Wang

[4kiraL]

I co-sign Silence of the Lambs and The Usual Suspects. Can't be stressed enough. 😉

 

I also think that Mulholland Dr. has a big fanbase since it's Lynch's most popular film.

 

And since MLIFE is doing The Lighthouse, I would suggest two contemporary horror films that are well-received and popular:

• Hereditary
• Midsommar

 

[4kiraL]

Guys, imagine they would make an Ari Aster Collection with Hereditary and Midsommar. Similar to the beautiful James Wan Conjuring Collection!!! 😍

I actually didn't like these two as much as I love Flanagan's work  I thought they were nice in style, but otherwise underwhelming in a way they promised so much, but delivered less than expected. They borrow too much for my taste (the first seems like a ripoff of Exorist 3 and so many others, while the other is like the one movie you wouldn't want to bring your date to  ) and lack the sensitivity I admire in Flanagan, and sheer artfulness of A24. I'd love to see more from them ❤️

[Casiusco]

A film that I have already spoken about: 20 years ago and one day ago from the successful premiere of "In the mood for love" (Wong Kar Wai) at the Cannes Film Festival.

 

Precisely, if it were not for the coronavirus crisis, it would have been re-released in theaters yesterday, remastered to 4K. And, even so, as soon as possible it will be re-released because there is enough expectation in cinephilia and this kind of movies fans.

 

Conclusion: there is already a master in 4K.

 

He is crying out for a collector's edition.

 

And visually it can give a lot of play to do it. Few films have I seen with such careful photography, and such a distinctive point of view.

@Tristan_Wang

I would recommend a bit more focus on QC. I opened some Diskino editions and was shocked how many damages I found. Scratches on lentis, scratches on digibook, scratches on booklets etc. I really love your releases, heck, I see myself as a fan but I don't want to be 'scared' to open these great editions anymore.
