Why no Scream re-release?
I don't understand why so many movies get double-dip releases yet Scream is still only unavailable in anamorphic widescreen in R1. They could re-encode it to improve the video, make it anamorphic AND hopefully make it uncut finally and it will sell quite well I bet.
It's especially retarded as the inferior Scream 2 and 3 are anamorphic and yet the original film is not.

But yes, it's gay that Scream 1 is letterbox and the other two are both anamorphic.

No idea why this has been overlooked for an anamorphic re-release-- maybe Craven is waiting till he can put out the unrated cut-- but would be more than happy to pick it up should it finally get one.
A hi-def release would be fine, but I hope SD-DVD isn't left out in the cold. Those who aren't going to have HD anytime soon would still appreciate a new release of this one and many others that are STILL awaiting remastering and/or 16:9 enhancing.

I also agree that this is a Blu release, not HD DVD. As a HD DVD supporter, it will be DVD only for me...
