Any news on "2001: A Space Odyssey" rerelease?
It's listed in the rumoured/confirmed rerelease list with no details. I did a search on the forum and not much came up. I'd sift through the rerelease thread but it's 22 pages long.
Where did the confirmation come from in the first place?

I'm still amazed that the year 2001 passed us by without a decent SE of this title. Warner should have had a major theatrical re-release, coupled with a huge SE release on video.
It's a real headscratcher that this didn't become a reality.

And, no, I didn't miss it. I made a road trip.

Hopefully Warner's got a sweet set coming, in the last 2 years or so Warner has gotten really good with their releases, I'm surprised they haven't released this yet.

I wish I had known this earlier as it would've saved me a lot of time.

I think that someone from WB said this was coming out in early 2006 in one of the web interviews on the HTF. I think they said at the same time that there was no plans for a better release of Cool Hand Luke.
yup here is the thread that discussed the chat and the Bits summary.

I'm looking forward to a nice special edition for 2001, as well as the other seminal Kubrick films (hell, why not all of them?). Still, 2001 might lend itself best to being a special edition, what with all the technological and philosophical issues to be discussed. Although there obviously won't be a commentary from Kubrick, I would be highly interested if WB did something similar to what they did with the Matrix films: one commentary from philosophers/scholars, and one track from film critics/historians. This film seems ripe with potential for such a commentary pairing. Add in a second disc of quality documentaries and other assorted features, and it'll be an outstanding set.
