I did a search and couldn't find any reference, so I'll ask the question. Are there any known plans for this terrific series to be released on HD? I'd snap it up in a sec.
My understanding is the opposite: the series was designed and shot 4:3, being a TV mini-series, and the later "Signature Edition" was a tilt-and-scan edit, which is why I decided not to buy it.Originally Posted by Dennis Nicholls
It's been a while, but IIUC the original set was not full-frame but pan&scan. IIRC this series was originally shot in 16:9.

Since this was recently available on Amazon for about $21-22, I've already ordered it. It was one of those "takes a week or two before it ship". Not sure if the deal is still available. It showed up in the bargain thread..Originally Posted by Eric F
If you're interested in a good series with lots of this kind of footage, might I recommend Discovery Channel's, When We Left Earth, The NASA Missions. No, it's not the same, but it's entertaining nonetheless.
