Norbert and friends: I don't have any more current info on the status of the T1 disc; I can only say I'm still on hold in my work on the title and have been so for literally years now. I surmise that it's not only Jim Cameron who will...

Mike, the commentary that Lance is referring to was actually recorded in early 2009, before we got put on hold.  It's only part of a packed audio commentary track I was working on... and I reckon I would have heard about it if...

David and Jeff: as almost all movies have been transferred to HD since the advent of DVD in the late 1990s, there likely was an HD transfer of True Lies since I worked on the SD transfer with JC in 1994... but chances are it was done in...

Troy, Nick: glad to know SOMEONE actually played the Scavenger Hunt game, much less enjoyed it!  It would be a cheat to just tell you where those things are, but here are some clues:1) the 1185 E is in a pivotal scene about the...
