Bill Paxton was on that VH1 show "Late show w/Zach" a few weeks ago when he was promoting "Frailty". He mentioned that he recently did an interview spot for an upcoming Weird Science DVD. I take that to mean that we are getting a new version of this soon!!
Ron, here's my take on the whole Legend mess. I saw Legend originally in the theater and fell in love with it. I've always liked everything about it. I must have burned through 6 copies of the Tangerine Dream soundtrack on tape until they finally released it on CD. It wasn't until years...
Don't worry everyone. I guess I got lucky and got my order in before it was out of stock. It took only 3 days to get it. Here is what I can confirm.
YES - it is 16x9
YES - it looks great compared to the regular US release.
YES - it plays fine in my unmodified Region 1 JVC XV-S65GD DVD...
