Thanks.

If this ever got released I would buy it in a second. This movie has always been a family favorite for us. Also it would be kinda interesting to get the TV Show on DVD to see some of Joss Whedon's earliest work.

Good news, Parenthood is being rereleased!
one of the more underrated comdies of the eighties is being rereleased on Sept 6th. bummer is it's still a barebones release but still better than paying 30-40 on Ebay.
it is listed as a full frame release, but don't fret. this film was shot in that format and was matted for theater release. so what you see at home will actually be more than was shown at the cineplex.

JERK.

i will state this one more time...this movie was shot in full screen ratio , just like the Kubrick movies,(not that i'm comparing the quality of said movie). if you want a widescreen version that was never intended, so be it.

Great flick! And I'd love to add it to my collection. I'll have ta pass on a full frame/Open Matte version tho. (I hate those black bars on the right and left of my screen!)
Amazon shows "new and used copies from 18.99", and no word on a reissue. Hmmm... Gonna have ta look into it and check back with this thread a bit. Thanks tho!
