Purple Rain SE on its way!....Next year....in August....oh, and in the UK...
In case you didn't read the Wyatt Earp thread to find this tidbit hidden away. Personally, i'm suspending my belief until I pop 'em in my DVD player.
Here's the link to WB's press release. Make of it what you will...

Warner hit a real purple patch in August with a trilogy of Prince musicals including a two disc special edition of the mega-hit Purple Rain, based on his best-selling album plus it's sequels Under the Cherry Moon and Graffiti Bridge.

Guess it's official? But, since this is on the US MTV site, does that mean it's a r1 release too..?
According to MTV.com news: Prince's classic flick "Purple Rain" will be released on DVD this summer and will include a special making-of documentary. Both of the Purple One's subsequent films, "Under the Cherry Moon" and "Graffiti Bridge," will also be released at the same time.
Some more news here too.

Just my opinion, but with all the trouble they had with Prince over the years, I don't think Warner is going to waste their time with Purple Rain or any other of his albums.

But, PR wouldn't be the first disc that needs remastering...
Start with Parade then Sign 'O the Times then Dirty Mind then Lovesexy then Controversy then O(+> then so on and so on..
