greater chance of IC resurrecting.
Oh I'm sure it'll never happen, but for comparisons' sake it'd be interesting. Having said that, I'd be just as happy if they don't touch it at all. It's a beautiful piece of work as it is 
How about some good songs? You know the ones they hid away in the attic whilst they put a bunch of rubbish ones on the album:
A DVD of Melanie C licking honey out of my bottom... Oh and the Peel Sessions to show how much better 'Movement' would've been with simpler production.

Agreed! :p
For once, I would like an actual album sleeve, with lyrics, credits and made even a photo or two. Call me crazy.
I think it would be cool if the band revisited all of the tracks on it. Like re-recorded and perhaps updated accordingly. It would be cool to see their interpretation of work they did 25 years ago. Won't happen since their broken up...but it would be fun anyway.
With Movement, I'd like to see the band remaster it AND remix it as they see fit. Now that they've obviously learned how to produce their own music of course :D I would just be curious to see if they'd really change that much...I mean, Disc would could be the original album with disc 2 as NOs version, maybe even a few alt mixes of Ceremony slapped onto the end would be nice :\ohwell:
It would have to be really good to get me to buy another (after the original vinyl, and the London CD) version of Movement.
I'd want:
If there's still room, then 4) one each of the best live versions of the classic tracks.
Here's what I'd put on disc 2 to compliment a remastered Movement as disc 1:
I believe I might have started a thread on this a while back, might have been on another board though. This is the ONLY album of theirs I'd like to see a new mix on. If memory serves, the band wasn't thrilled w/the original mix to begin. Compared to the rest of Hannett's work, it's pretty subpar.
The production is really muddy and lifeless. Most of the songs sound much better when played live. As far as extras, I think everyone else has pretty much hit everything I'd like already.
the album in a version the band find listenable. my iTunes playlist sees every track replaced by the Peel Session version wherever possible.
For a bonus disc? A well recorded compilation of all the live tracks in the set at the time, and some demos.
As it's by far the BEST production of any New Order recd, I'd go for :
CD1 : Original album remastered + Western Works demos + Haystack
CD2 : Two gigs, if there's room. One could be Blackpool 1980, if it could be cleaned up enough. Then another good 'un from the middle of 1981. Maybe Reading? I expect Tim would know what the best available recordings/performances are.
I don't see any point putting multiple versions of Ceremony/EGG/Tempt/Hurt/IALP on there, most of which are available elsewhere. I suppose you could make a case for Cries & Whispers and Mesh to sneak onto CD1.
Can't honestly see why Haystack should be included, just because they played as Kevin Hewick's backing band in one session. It's not exactly a New Order song, is it? May as well include jams of various covers they've done over the years at soundchecks etc.
Bloody completists... 
To be quite honest unless someone (and I'm sure Cambo will tell me it can't be done) can improve the quality of the sound/production/recording/my ears and raise the overall experience from turgid to perhaps mildly leaden, is it really worth it?
Snorri xxx
A well recorded gig from the period, a cleaned up version of the Heaven soundcheck, and some demos or alternate mixes
2 discs. 1 - original album remastered. 2 - re-recorded version.
Interesting, but highly unlikely.

Cheers matey. Good to be back! Why did I go? I don't really know?
Long live New Order....
Movement is a great album. Truth has to be one of my favourites so I would also like the Peely versions added onto this package!

But the Peely version (good as they are), have been released multiple times already. I'd go for the live Stockholm and/or Blackpool gigs mentioned earlier.
Re-recording idea is interesting. I'd read somewhere that the band wasn't happy with this this album's sound/mix. I've also read the same thing about Brotherhood interestingly.
Movement is my favorite NO album!
This may be a stupid yank question, but is there a quality difference in the US CD version released in 1992 and the UK CD version released in 2000? 
Beats me.
What I definitely don't want are incomplete bits of recorded gigs. Then all future torrents of those gigs no DimeaDozen would have to miss out the released bits, just as happened with the Retro live disk.
I vote for 'the entire album re-recorded by Glasnost'. In fact I vote that for the second disk on all these threads. That version of Turn on C2 was lovely.
Pulled this cd out of the archive yesterday and gave it a spin. Does anyone else think that these songs are aging quite well? It doesn't seem to be as dated as some of their later 80s work to me (though it could definitely use a remaster to make it a little louder and punchier).
