dvdanswers just posted anchor bay's plan on releasing all 8 halloween movies in one box set in region 2

http://www.dvdanswers.com/index.php?...4365&n=1&burl=

But I'm wondering what the chances of this comming out in region 1, because I know that atleast 2 companies own the rights in the US (Universal and Disney I want to say)? Thanks!

No chance. Universal owns parts 1-3; Anchor Bay owns 4-5; Miramax owns 6-8

I thought Anchor Bay owned 1.

Besides, most of the movies really suck.

I believe Universal licensed it to Anchor Bay.

Halloween
Halloween II
Halloween III: Season of the Witch
Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers
Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers
Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers
Halloween: H2O
Halloween: Resurrection


For my money, the only 2 Halloweens are 1 and 2.

I hope it's not like their old UK set (http://www.anchorbay.co.uk/perl/search.pl?CO=ABDHALL), which was basically just the same UK versions of 1, 4, 5, and 7 (6 was not on DVD at the time, and 8 was still in theaters), plus relatively barebones versions of 2 and 3, in one package. Here are the stats of that older set:

Appears to be the same as our older version, sans the tv cut disc.

The commentary thing is the only new aspect, and while interesting, I'd rather hear from someone actually involved with the film.

Seems like the same AB releases we got.

Same as the Dimension edition we got.
