According to Amazon.ca, the initial four LEXX telemovies (aka "Season 1") are getting a Canadian re-release this summer. It's available as a pre-order for less than $20 Canadian with a release date of June 8th.
Hopefully, it won't be a clone of the current Echo Bridge release, because I've heard that one has, at the very least, a slightly censored soundtrack on the first movie (I Worship His Shadow) and may or may not have a brief edit in the brain-removal scene from the same film. Also, someone on this forum said that the Echo Bridge release was anamorphic widescreen, which would also be a mistake, because the OAR for this is 4:3.
It would be nice if the upcoming Canadian release is, at the very least, as complete as the OOP (and expensive) Koch release, and at least having the same extras as the Koch ones would be nice (additional extras that were on the foreign releases--including the original presentation reel--would be gravy!). I'd be very disappointed if it's a re-press of the US Echo Bridge one, or contains different mistakes, like the censored Super Nova on the R4 release, or the dodgy mastering on some of the OOP R2s.
