1492: Conquest of Paradise - Ridley Scott
Yo! How come this thing has not been released yet on dvd. Terrific film and great music by Vangelis. What's holding this thing up?

It has been released in other countrys but never on DVD in the USA. I think there could be a rights issue in the USA with the 9 production companies associated with it's distribution. Paramount owns the rights to release it, and it was available on Laserdisc and VHS at one time, but never on DVD. The movie was announced for DVD release in 2004 and was to have no extra features but Paramount pulled the plug on it for unknown reasons. So it's either a rights issue (which explains why they did not release it in 2004 as planned) or it could be absolutely nothing but a studio just taking it's sweet time getting around to it.
Mod, this thread should be moved to the DVD Talk section.
