I recall a rumor that there was consideration being given to a rerelease of the Jack Ryan movies, but it wasn't in the near future and wasn't a priority. If true, this is too bad - I'm also waiting for a rerelease.
When Martin Blythe (from Paramount) canvassed the forum for what they wanted, an SE of HFRO was mentioned very often, and since then as well. I am confident we will see it and hopefully soon.
Karen, I would be patient and wait for a new edition of this movie. I purchased the current dvd several months ago and promptly returned it after viewing. The picture and sound seemed no better than my VHS copy.
