Poltergeist has a couple of legal issues around it for the studio to make a doc about, Hook was seen as a bit of a disaster by the studio and director so chances there are slim, same goes for Dick Tracy while TMNT depends on interest from the current rights holder.

*Die Hard does need a better documentary covering each film I agree.
*The Goonies also needs a doc as well.
*GB I and II I totally agree with although I find it sad that the fans (the Buenos) have had to make the comprehensive doc the studio should of made. Maybe Sony will licence it for an upcoming release?

James Cameron was asked recently about The Abyss and apparently it's on his to do list although I hope he doesn't destroy the picture quality with teal like he did on the remaster of T2.

I guess it's asking too much for Disney to make documentaries for the Escape to Witch Mountain movies?

You mean this?
But yeah they really should try and get the 1994 FF movie released properly. It's the best FF so far.

It was considered a flop. Also I can honestly say The Rocketeer is better than anything Marvel have put out with the MCU.
