Big
The Towering Inferno
The Poseidon Adventure
Romancing the Stone

I wish I was a dvd producer.. I am not. I did help on the region 2 UK edition of Conan The Destroyer. www.angelfire.com/ca4/sarahdouglas. Ms. Douglas did a commentary track for Conan The Destroyer.

Nothing has yet come of this. No official announcement. Abandoned?

I finally caved and got the current one on sale at Target for $6.50 a few weeks ago.

its so cheap now, may as well pick up the current one. I got it in a 3 for 20$ CDN offer at HMV. its a fun film, im sure there will be a HD SE version eventually so ill enjoy the current version and when i finally go HD will upgrade then.

The current open matted version shown on HBO looks and sounds great.

If a few more of you run out and buy it, that'll almost guarantee a new release soon. Isn't that how it usually works?

The one and only Region-1 DVD of True Lies has been in stores for almost 8 years, whoever doesn't have it by now either, A) doesn't want it or B) is waiting for a new edition, and if they've waited this long they can probably wait a little longer.

Personally i'd prefer Cameron be heavily involved in an SE of not only this but future releases of any of his films. The commentaries he's recorded for his films have been great listens.

He's only done a handful of films in his career, i've loved almost all of them True Lies included.

Not always.

But if you subscribe to that theory, this title (and many other older titles) have been swept out of Circuit City's closet and are part of a 2 for $12 sale 5/21 - 5/27/06.
