No. The rights to "Return" reside with Artisan, not MGM. Artisan has a pretty crappy quality non-anamorphic (but OAR) DVD of "Return." At least it's only about $6.

Too bad, since "Return" is one of the best in the series.

If you can find "Return" for $6, buy as many as you can since it is going for $50 and up on eBay. I have two copies I bought in the Walmart dump bin for $5.50.

Wow, if it's really going for that much on ebay (I haven't checked yet), it's worth driving a little out of my way to look for some in the bin.

What's the reason why it's going for that much? Is it now OOP? Or is it just perceived to be?

UPDATE: Ok, just checked ebay, and YES, it is going pretty hight. Usually not more than $25.00 + shipping, but there are sellers listing it upwards of around $50.

And I guess it is OOP. Amazon does not list any in stock, aside from USED ones starting at $32.00 and more. DDD.com doesn't even carry any. It's discontinued at DVD Planet. So, yeah...this is very OOP.

Pick them up at from the Wal Mart cheapie bins!

Actually, the $50+ was for sealed copies, since that is what you would find in the Walmart dump bin. And I know of a used DVD dealer paying $33 for it.

Wow. I didn't know it had gone OOP. Last I had seen they were readily available in the bargain bins. Still, if I didn't already have one I wouldn't pay those kind of inflated prices. A re-release is inevitable, hopefully in an improved version.

Didn't know Return wasn't included in the set. That's a bummer.

Picked up The Pink Panther, The Pink Panther Strikes Again, and Revenge Of The Pink Panther all for $5 each at Family Dollar recently. Also had managed to get The Return Of The Pink Panther at WM for $5.50 some time ago.

Is it possible that Return will get another issue with the upcoming Pink Panther remake?
