John Ritter's Hero at Large coming 8/30/05

Warner Bros. is releasing the Ritter I've been waiting for. Since it's WB's dvd, it should be good.

Great vehicle for Ritter's physical comedy skills and his great sense of timing. Really looking forward to finally dumping the old VHS...

The transfer should be pretty nice -- the version that's aired on HDNet Movies over the past year or two has looked fantastic.

Great news! One of my movie channels just aired it, but I missed it! Argh! Can't wait to see it again.

It's cheesy, but I still like it. I'll pick it up

I have fond memories of seeing this when I was a little kid. Hero at Large and Turk 182 were the 2 movies that I never thought would make it to DVD. Great news!

Over at DVD Empire, it looks like the trailer is the only Special Feature it getting. But it will be Anamorphic Widescreen
