So, it's the 30th anniversary, the Vatican has even recognized it

and yet there are no plans for its release on blu-ray?

What a missed opportunity!

The Monkees

Just because nothing has been announced yet doesn't mean it's not happening. There hasn't been an announcement for Back to the Future but there are rumors it will be out this year. Remember back in 2003 when the Alien Quadrilogy wasn't officially announced until like a month before it was actually released.

It was one of Universal's Facebook vote titles and so far just about everything on that list is slowly working it's way out.

Lost in Translation (Keeps getting pushed back)
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Animal House
Backdraft
Psycho (October)
The Blues Brothers
Meet the Parents (pre-announced, no firm release date)
The Big Lebowski
The Breakfast Club (August)
Back to the Future (Oct/Nov in the U.S.)

Universal is waiting for the Pope to finish the commentary track from the Vatican.

Chet Desmond

I hope they have a moderator this time. That dude rambled like a mofo on the "Cannibal Holocaust" commentary.

Boba Fett

I'd expect that one in November before the third movie hits theaters along with "Meet the Fockers"

The Monkees

Universal would be stupid to NOT release Blues Brothers & BTTF this year because they are celebrating anniversaries this year.

And the slurring. Must have been hitting the sacrantal wine again.

It's Universal.....they'll screw it up whether it's released this year or not. I'm almost to the point of just completely ignoring their catalog releases.

Maybe the Vatican can start releasing films. The Divine Collection perhaps. I can't see them doing any worse than Universal.
