Paramount has announced the up-coming DVD release of 3 great Sci-Fi films.
Fire In The Sky
Expolrers
D.A.R.Y.L
Its about time too, lets hope that these where worth the wait.
No release date has been confirmed, but hopefully we can see them towards the end of 2004.
Ah nuts... I just got the widescreen laserdisc of D.A.R.Y.L.
shareAbout time too!
I might be 26, but I love Explorers. The effects are great, and should transfer nicely to DVD. As Paramount are releasing it (and the other two) I don't suppose we'll see any extras other than a trailer (if we're lucky).
By the way, do you know if this will only be region 1, or will us Brits get to see it without resorting to Amazon as usual! No disrescpect to Amazon.
There is no future but what we make for ourselves
Explorers DVD is set to be a region 2 only so far in Nov 2004, haven't seen any information on it being released outside of the UK on DVD.
shareBlimey!
Region 2 only. That makes a change. Not necessarily a healthy one either, but still, I'm not complaining. Let's hope it's a 3-disc boxset stuffed with extras, Director's Cuts, commentaries (say... 5 or 6), trailers, docs, storyboards, scene breakdowns, set designs, effect breakdowns, creature designs...
Sorry, getting carried away there. I almost forgot that this will be a Paramount release.

Down Rotweiler! Your saliva will drip onto the keyboard and you'll blow up!
If it's getting a Region 2 release first, then I reckon it'll be a bare bones DVD, otherwise they'd be releasing it stateside first.
Joe Dante reckons the cut stuff is long gone, so we may be praying for a miracle that'll never happen *sob*.
Still, commentaries would be nice!
Just mopping the keyboard now! Woof woof!
Well, I suppose with this kind of film, you can't expect more than bare bones release. A few extras would be nice though. I haven't seen the film in a few years now, and that was the pan 'n' scan version on TV. Does anyone know the original ratio? I get the feeling it's 1.85:1 rather than 2.35:1.
