Give Kubrick the DVDs that are worthy of him

Dear Time Warner, Sony, MGM, the Kubrick estate, and any party not mentioned that holds the rights to any Kubrick films,

We Kubrick fans think that Kubrick is one (if not the greatest) director. However, he has some of the worst DVDs on the market. While the current Box Set has a nice documentary and the "Dr. Strangelove: 40th Anniversary" has some interesting special features, there has been little to write this wrong. Some examples of how to do better:

1. Show the "Pie-Fight" alternative ending to "Dr. Strangelove." Sony, why in the hell did you not do this!!!

2. Give anamorphic transfers to "Lolita," "A Clockwork Orange," and "Barry Lyndon." Also release the widescreen as well as the full screen versions of "The Shining," "Full Metal Jacket," and "Eyes Wide Shut."

3. Release the scenes cut out of "2001" and "The Shining" as a bonus feature.

4. Release the unedited version of "Eyes Wide Shut."

5. Release his early documentaries and an official version of "Fear and Desire."

Some documentaries and commentaries on any and all of his films would be welcome as well.

Films by Kurosawa, Bergman, Fellini, and Hitchcock have gotten god-like treatment on DVD. Why, Time Warner, have you given 2-Disc Treatment to the flop "Gothika" and not to "2001?" Why, Sony, do you find it necessary to release the Deleted Scenes of "Charlie's Angles" and not "Dr. Stangelove?" Why MGM, do think it necessary to release a special edition of "Showgirls" and not of "Paths of Glory?" Why is it that the only Kubrick movie that has any special treatment is "Spartacus," a film he hated? This injustice must not stand. We, the Undersigned, demand you release these masterpieces with the treatment they properly deserve.
