Metropolis Lost, Found

It appears ODESSA's ratline to Argentina was good for something:

Film historians had doubted they would ever find the missing parts of "Metropolis" -- until three reels of the science fiction movie made in Germany a long time ago, were discovered in a country far, far away.

Two film fans in Argentina uncovered the fragile footage in a small museum, earlier this year -- over eight decades after Fritz Lang's dystopian classic first began to shed scenes

Metropolis is already slated for its blu-ray debut next year. Would it be too much wishful thinking to hope this footage could find its way in?
