As long as we're talking celluloid and/or dual-strip releases that require elaborate reconstruction to be mastered onto digital, ANYTHING non-digital before 2005 should be considered "Classic". Well, labeled Classic for sorting purposes anyway, if not necessarily considered Classic. (And as for Metalstorm, I'm not 100% excited about almost an entire hour of POV desert roads, but I'll defend the right to release it.)Richard--W said:I hope Bob will forgive us for discussing the 1980s revival in his classic 3-D thread.
The 2-D version of Spacehunter still shows up on Crackle.com for whatever cult audience it can get as an 80's title (next to Ghostbusters and The Last Dragon), so they're not about to dump it to an Archive any time soon...But if Sony's dragging their feet this long on Vincent Price or the Stooges, we know 80's 3D doesn't have a chance outside the cult true-believer labels.Somehow, I just don't see either Columbia or Universal moving on this. The staff in the home video divisions release the films they are interested in. They have never shown one iota of interest in their old 3-D holdings.
