Another new year is here, but yet WB is still silent, sigh.

 

[Josh Simpson]

Hang in there, Tony. At least at the WB chat a while back they said it was close, and that they knew how much the fans wanted it. That's much better than a "not likely."

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Yeah, but that chat was nearly a year ago, and no peep since.

 

[CameronMcC]

hoping to hear an announcement soon as well. Also looking forward to another chat soon.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Didnt want to take any chances since todays the chat, someone please ask about this.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Now that its been officially announced , it will be interesting to see if it will have any bonus material.

 

[TravisR]

It hasn't really been officially announced but hopefully the chat news will stop the monthly "Has anyone heard about this yet?" post.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Travis, the chat was last night !

 

[TravisR]

Yeah, I know but that's not an official announcement. Granted, I'm nitpicking.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Anyone want to take a crack at guessing the release date ? Ill go first, im guessing sometime in August, and we should get an official announcement in a month or so.

 

[Sam Favate]

Sure hope so. I was thinking about this the other day, and looking forward to it. In fact, this and Blade Runner might be the two I am most anticipating this year.

 

[Sean Richardson]

True, but it signals the beginning of the new "Did they say when they're going to release it yet?" era. [Possibly preceded by a brief "When are they going to officially announce it?" epoch.]

 

[TravisR]

Just a guess but I think that it'll be out in September or October to sync up with Halloween time.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Well, we are now into May and still no release date.I just hope it gets released this year.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Still no release date, you would think the exact date would be known by now.

I've been expecting an October release since Warner first mentioned the release during their chat. It makes the most sense - it can be part of a Halloween tie-in/promotion. If it is released in October, I'm sure we'll see an announcement next month or early August.

Yesterday, someone noted on another forum that DVDAficianado (I think it was) has a release date of October 15. That's a Monday, so that's obviously not the correct date but it's certainly the time frame I've been expecting. Again, expect an announcement in the next few weeks.

I hope that when WB finally releases this it will be a 2-Disc Special Edition because I would like them to put the new "Spielberg On Spielberg" TCM documentary on it. Unless it gets released with Twilight Zone, I don't see how they could put it out on disc since they've already released their 2 Spielberg films & I find it doubtful they will re-release "Empire Of The Sun" or put the doc out by itself.

 

[TravisR]

Never say never but I think there's a lot better chance of them releasing Speilberg On Speilberg on its own or with a re-release over releasing it with The Twilight Zone. They didn't even mention his work on TZ in that documentary.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

You know, Warner announced a ton of dvd releases yesterday stretching all the way to october 30th .Twilight zone was not among them,is there still hope for this year ?

 

[Jeff-Wooten]

My gut feeling is that the announcement will come at San Diego Comic-Con next week. Isn't the Digital Bits hosting a panel where they'll be making announcements of upcoming DVDs (along with footage of Blade Runner: Final Cut)? Seems a perfect venue/audience to announce the release date. If it doesn't happen here, then maybe it does get pushed back to 2008 (for who knows what reason).
