Maybe one of the actors, could try to buy the rights to release the dvd unsuccessfully ! Hey, it worked like a charm for night of the comet, lol !.I truly believe night of the comet , would still be not on dvd.Please Sony, I know its too late for this year, but please dont let 2008 go by and still no billy jean dvd !!!

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Are they ever going to release this movie?

 

[Don3996]

I keep checking every month for this title myself...considering the stars and the popularity of it compared to many other titles already out I can only assume maybe there is some music clearance issue or something perhaps.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

If its a music problem, why doesnt Sony just come out and say so ? Seems simple enough, or maybe they just have a sick pleasure of seeing this be, the longest active running thread in HTF HISTORY !!!!!!!!

I can't believe this movie isn't on dvd. I saw it was on one of the HD channels recently. I thought for sure that meant it had been released. I was all set to buy it. No such luck. :frowning:

 

[Mark Zimmer]

It's scheduled for TCM shortly (maybe already gone past). I know I set my TiVo to record it earlier this week.

 

[TonyD]

hmm turner classic movies had this on?

 

[Haden]

It's running on Showtime this month. Airing a few times this week, according to my Cox Digital Cable guide.

 

[Radioman970]

I remember not liking this too mcuh when it hit cable in the 80s. I have no doubt I'd do a turnaround all these years later. A double set with Billy Jack would be something I'd consider buying. I've never even seen Billy Jack.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Since Sony is reading these threads lately,I guess it wouldnt hurt to ask for this to come to dvd in 2009 ????

 

[Robert13]

I, for one, would definitely buy it. I've been waiting years for an official dvd release of this movie. Can't believe it's still not out there.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Ive recently lost a big money bet because of this not coming to dvd.For those curious, I bet with someone that this would come to dvd before Howard the duck!!!!!!!!!Ive still got 1 big bet left, and I think its humanly impossible to lose. That bet is, Im definitely sure Legend of billy jean will come to dvd before Batman 1966 series!!!!!!

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

Still no release date for this year ??? This is getting beyond pathetic !!!!!!!

Could this be coming to dvd in 2010? I would love a nice remastered copy. Cool about the commentary. I wonder what she says about the movie. I have a feeling it will finally get its official release on dvd.

 

[TheBat]

I don't know.. but its possible that it could come out next year.

[John Kilduff]

Is it possible that this might be an Anchor Bay release? I say that because as many have witnessed, Anchor Bay has been releasing some Sony product recently, and this seems like it might fit in with the company's line of thinking. I would gladly buy it.

Sincerely,

John Kilduff...

I wonder if they would include featurettes on the looks and styles of the movie.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

We are now in the year 2010 and still no dvd .

 

[Robert13]

The more time that passes, the least hopeful I get of an official dvd release. If Sony goes the MOD route, we may see a release. They really have cut down on releases of any kind lately. A lot of re-issues and the like but new stuff seems to be diminishing on their release calendar.

 

[TonyD]

This keeps popping up on MGM-HD.
guess I'll record it to see what everyone is talking about.
