Paramount to release Fire in the Sky, Finally!!!
 

Digitalbits...

We've have some cool information from Paramount today. These titles have yet to be announced, but we have confirmed with the studio that they ARE finally in the works for DVD release... D.A.R.Y.L., Explorers and Fire in the Sky. I know a lot of you out there are interested in Fire and Explorers in particular, based on the number of inquiries we get about them. Also, soon to be announced by Paramount are first season DVD box sets of Happy Days, Mork & Mindy and Laverne & Shirley. Look for those Summer 2004. Better still, we've been told to expect Star Trek: The Original Series - Season One to arrive on DVD in the 3rd Quarter of this year


Hell yeah! I cant wait to own it. I hope its an SE but I wont keep my hopes up. I still find this one of the BEST alien abduction films out there. Anyone else in on this one?

Cool! I've been waiting for this release since I got my first DVD player. :)

:up: DARYL :up:

my gawd, my wallet won't take kind of abuse

<b>Explorers</b> and <b>Fire In The Sky</b> - two must-buys for me! Thanks for the heads up!

WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!!! Fire In The Sky finally :D

HOLY SHIT!!!! EXPLORERS FINALLY!!...I need to go pass out.

Thanks for the news, can't wait to get Fire In The Sky!!!!!

Sweet.

Adding new release dates for Explorers and Fire In The Sky to my wish list.

WAHOO!

LOL I just bought the laserdisc of Fire on Ebay last week.

Awesome news!!!

Good news, been wanting Fire in the Sky for a long time.

YES!!! I'm getting DARYL, Fire and Explorers... good job paramount.

MATT

Great news! :thumbsup:

They could probably come up with some really cool special features for "Fire"!

Oh wait, it's Paramount... ;)

"Fire" is a movie that needs some additional viewings before you truly appreciate it. I remember being somewhat bored when I saw it in the theater until they found D.B. Sweeney, then it began to pick up rather quickly. The spaceship sequence really was frightening to watch and almost a mini-movie in and of itself.
Speaking of which, I heard that they actually had a different director and crew work on the spaceship sequence than the rest of the film, which I would have no problem believing. Here's hoping they address it on the DVD!


Oh wait, Paramount! That means overpriced with hardly any extras, silly me! ;)

I hope it has at least some extras. With the thousands of UFO docs out there, they could at least get 1 or 2 of them on there and maybe interviews with the real people who lived through it. Give me commentaries, documentaries, Anamorphic WS, and anything else you can throw on there.

This HAS to have a commentary.

Great news! Honestly didn't expect Fire in the Sky to ever be released on DVD, but I guess anything truly is possible. Those final twenty minutes scared the bejeebers out of me!

And the note about Star Trek: The Original Series just sounds sweeter every time I read it...

EXPLORERS................SWEEEEEETT!!!!!!!! I was just watching my VHS copy a few days ago. FINALLY!!!!!!

Fire in the Sky is on Sci Fi starting now in case anyone wants to see it again. Awesome alien film.

Thanks for bumping this thread man!

Excellent news regarding Fire in the Sky, Explorers, D.A.R.Y.L., and Star Trek!

Fire in the Sky? This is wonderful news. I really like that movie and will buy it for sure. I thought I would never get it, so there goes another off my want but don't have list.

:thumbsup:

Huh I thought a date was finally announced...

Is there a date now? I havent heard anything new since early March...

Sweet, looks like a good summer for DVD releases!

Paramount now have full details for Fire In The Sky, and it will be a bare-bones release:

Full article and large cover shots here

I am still going to be picking this up, but I am sad that there are on extras. I would say hold out for the SE, but it took so long for this to get released at all, this is probably the best we are going to get for awhile.

Well... bummer of news, but I'm still buying it :)

Fire in the sky----great news--i've been waiting for this one for a very long time. Great!!!!

darn... barebones... probably skip this & spend on something else (way too many on "must buy list")

The lack of extras are a disappointment. But I've been waiting for this release since I bought my player, so I'll pick it up anyway.

Also, I sorta dislike that site for using quotation marks around 'true story'. Grr...

'tis a pity paramount doesn't care enough about this smaller titles. at least a friggin' trailer would have been nice.

Nice to see they used the original poster art :thumbsup:

Yay!

Will you please then go back on ebay and buy the laserdisc's of "Harry And The Hendersons" and "Howard The Duck" so whoever can announce those titles next week, that would be great...

This totally sucks that there is no extras!!

It's Paramount, what do you expect? When the highest grossing movie of all time gets a barebones release, you can't hope for much with their catalogue titles.
