Casper was never released in DD 5.1 in the U.S. For a time frame, the first film Universal released in DD on LD was Dragonheart: The Signature Collection Box Set... ...It may also be known as the Screwjob Edition since this was the only way to pick the film up in DD, until the DVD arrived...

Jimmy, Your best shot for DTS CD's is either Amazon or DVDPlanet... For as long as they're available. It very likely that, aside from DVD-Audio hybrids, DTS CD has gone the way of the DTS LD. Daniel L

Remeber... Never trust IMDB... Fear and Lothing In Las Vegas was never released on LD in DD 5.1 in the stats & I never remember Image releasing a DTS LD of the film either. Daniel L

Two things... Charlie,

Call Disney's 1-80 number... Continuiously returning the disc to chains such as Best Buy, Walmart, etc. will not solve the problem. Studios just do blanket returns for defectives for the chains and don't ask "Why?" BTW, I tried the disc on few different players; a Toshiba, a Pioneer Elite...

David, Have you ever been in the rental business? How about when the whole paradigm is changing, destroying the rental business? Digitainment is living on borrowed time (and money) just like any other independent rental store. In an ironic twist of fate Digitainment used to be owned...

Ok. you guys are faily new to the forum here is the reality about Star Wars and Indiana Jones... Paramount and Fox have no control of when these will be released, they only distribute the films. Lucasfilm own all copyrights to these films. They control when, and if, these will be released...

Image is pretty much getting out of the distribution business as of Decemeber 31st. Outside of 20 smaler labels such as Elite, Synapse, Acron Media and of course, Playboy; they will no longer be selling non-exclusive titles. Daniel L

Paul, I suggest you look up some older threads about the Godfather. It turns out that it was not the player fault. Paramount finally issued replacement discs for the supplements a few months back. (Mr. Blythe posted it in the studio feedback section I believe.) (That was quite annoying...
