I can't wait for this either. I have the old MGM disc and was happy with it, but I'm looking forward to the upgrade.

Can anybody explain the production history of this to me? I'm most interested in the filming dates. How long did they shoot in England? How long was the hiatus? How long did they shoot in the US and what was the final prodcution cost? I can't seem to find definitive answers anywhere so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the great review!
