    Father of the Bride (15th Anniversary Edition) - What's on it?

    I just noticed that The Digital Bits has posted coverart for Father of the Bride: 15th Anniversary Edition and has it scheduled to be released on 5/7. This is one of my favorite movies and I've always wanted to see a re-release, but I had no idea this was coming out. Anyone have any specs?

    Lost DVD news!

    TV Guide's "Ask Ausiello" feature included the following Q&A: While I'm sure the SRP is not final, the rest of that news is fantastic. I love the show and purchasing it was a no-brainer, but these features make me anticipate it even more. :emoji_thumbsup:

    Any update on 'Wings' yet?

    Now that Seinfeld's about to hit DVD, I have only one television show that I still am stuck waiting for. Does anyone know if there's been any word anywhere about seeing the hit NBC sitcom finally on DVD? Please?

    Any reviews of Saved by the Bell Seasons 3 & 4?

    I was looking around and couldn't find any reviews on this set. Anyone have a chance to check this out yet? I bought the first set since the price was really good, but was hoping there might be some special features on the newest set.

    What about the New Adventures of Johnny Quest?

    Seeing that Warners has announced the release of the original Johnny Quest series on DVD, I was wondering if anyone knows of plans to release the newer version of the show. While the few episodes of the original help me understand why people liked it so much, I thought the newer ones were...

    Season 3 of Cheers and Frasier coming in MAY!

    Great news! TVShowsOnDVD reports that Paramount is releasing the third seasons of Frasier and Cheers this May, only four months after the second seasons' release. I'm thrilled to see that more and more studios are moving away from the semi-annual release pattern. :emoji_thumbsup:

    Advice on Daewoo 42" Plasma?

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience with the Daewoo 42" Plasma TV (DP42SM). Best Buy will be selling it extremely cheaply on Black Friday, and the price makes it hard to believe the set can be very good. However, a review I read at Epinions.com gave it high marks (but...

    Lion's Gate purchases Artisan... Will this affect their DVDs?

    I noticed on Coming Soon that Lion's Gate has purchased Artisan for $160 million. Anyone care to speculate if this will have some effect on Artisan's DVDs? I'm hoping perhaps it could mean that Artisan DVDs no longer require 15 rereleases to get a title right. But then again, maybe Lion's Gate...

    Alias - Season 2 Specs

    I thought it might be worth starting a seperate thread for the second season of Alias. Some of this news is relatively old, but it wasn't mentioned in the other thread so I've posted it here. The press release, as seen on TVShowsOnDVD and a number of Alias sites: Overstock currently...

    Are there further LOTR special editions planned?

    I bought the theatrical version of Fellowship of the Ring when it came out, and I'm now debating whether to buy the Theatrical version or the expanded version of Two Towers. But I'd first like to know if anyone's aware of a planned re-release of the DVDS following Return of the King next year. I...

    Artisan planning a Total Recall "Extreme Edition"

    Seriously, Artisan Entertainment has got to be the most money-hungry studio ever. I can't believe they're about to try another triple-dip on a title. Of course, the sadder thing is that I'll probably end up buying it. :wink: - Source: USA Today

    What's the best DVD creation software?

    I've tried a number of DVD creation programs, but none have ever had all the features I'd like. Right now I'm using Ulead DVD Workshop, but I'd really like to include audio commentaries on a couple discs. I was going to try MedioStream's NeoDVD, but I saw a lot of reviews on CNET indicated the...

    Any reviews of X-Files Season 7?

    Has anyone on the net reviewed the seventh season DVDs of The X-Files yet? I'm looking forward to this, especially since it may be the last season I buy, and it looks like there might be some great commentaries on this set.

    Custom ThinPak covers for The X-Files season boxsets

    I'm trying to design some custom covers so I can move my X-Files seasons into ThinPaks. I just thought I'd post 2 examples of what I've got and see what kind of suggestions I can get. Season 1, Disc 1 Season 4, Disc 3 I used a color highlight on the spine to help differentiate between...

    Any possibility of ever seeing Survivor boxsets?

    With all the recent talk by fans and critics saying that the current season of Survivor is even better than the first, it got me trying to remember that first season, and wondering if we'd ever see it again. Does anyone know if this is in the works? Or if not, why? Although I have some question...

    What's the latest on a Predator:SE?

    I know the SE of Predator was released in another region a long time ago, and I've been consistenly avoiding the temptation to buy the current Region 1 version. But I really want to buy this movie. Anyone know of concrete plans to release this in Region 1 anytime in the near future? I sure hope...

    Why isn't City Slickers 2 on DVD?

    Anyone know why this movie has never been released to DVD? I realize most consider it to be a weak sequel, but it's still a very funny movie that I would like to add to my collection. It seems very strange that it's never hit DVD...

    Possible "Die Another Day" Specs...

    I'm not sure how reliable this is, but MI6 Headquarters has posted what they claim to be the specs for the upcoming Die Another Day DVD. While the site seems to be fairly reliable, the list of features is so impressive that I find it a little hard to believe:

    Rocky sequels being released seperately?

    I noticed today on Deep Discount DVD that it lists all the Rocky sequels as coming out on March 18, 2003 with SRPs of $14.95. This is the first I've heard of these movies being made available outside of the boxset (not including the OOP editions of Rocky II and IV), and I don't see it listed on...

    DigitalBits reporting Cheers may be finally coming to DVD!

    I'm surprised no one's mentioned this yet, but the Rumor Mill on The Digital Bits is reporting that Frasier and Cheers appear to be coming to DVD sometime this year. We've already heard reports the Frasier is in the near future, so this doesn't come as a complete shock. But getting Cheers on...

    So we're getting "Smallville"...Any chance of "Lois & Clark"??

    I'm not sure how many of you are fans of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman", but I'd certainly like to see this series released to DVD. I seem to remember DVDFile reporting a couple years ago that a couple eps were scheduled to be released, but nothing ever came of that. Anyone think...

    Any possiblity of an SE of "The Insider"?

    Has anyone heard anything about a possible SE of The Insider? The film got a surprisingly barebones release considering the critical and popular success that it garnered while in theaters. I think it was IGN that posted a wishful list of features for an SE about a year ago, and I've been hoping...

    The Back to the Future DVD Countdown thread

    Hey, all. I was re-reading one of the reviews of the BTTF DVDs today, and I realized it's less than 2 weeks to arguably the second-most awaited franchise to hit DVD. And since we all know why Star Wars isn't out yet, the release of BTTF really represents the end of the unexplicable abscences of...

    Frasier coming to DVD this spring!

    I just saw this on TVShowsOnDVD.com: While this is good to hear, I really would've preferred Cheers before Frasier. Oh well... Any TV on DVD is good news!

    Where's "Regarding Henry"?

    The subject says it all. Does anyone know why this Harrison Ford movie has never hit DVD? I really think it's one of Ford's best performances, and it's a darn good movie as well. And yet I just realized it's never been released, and I've heard nothing about an upcoming release. Please help!

    X-Files Bloopers on TV....Why not on DVD?

    I don't know if anyone else was watching "Fox's Funniest Bloopers" tonight, but there were a number of very funny outtakes from The X-Files. I've seen other blooper reels online as well, and I was wondering if anyone knows why we've never seen these as an extra or easter egg on the DVDs. I'd...
