Okay, so I'm the only person who actually enjoys this film and would love to see it issued on Blu-ray. Won't some company (whoever owns it?) make me a happy lad! :) {Grasping at straws, I know.}

I have it on laserdisc bought in a cutout bin for $0.99. I watched it once, but honestly I have absolutely no recollection of it at all. One of these days (since I do still have a functioning laserdisc player hooked up to my system), I should drag out that disc and give it another spin.

Not as good as a disc, but it is available streaming in HD on services like Vudu and iTunes. The info page lists Universal as being the distributor.

Haven't watched it in years, it's stuffed in a box in the closet. But I would love a blu. Very funny movie. I might have to dig it out this weekend.

I thought it was a good film the one time that I watched it. I can't say that I ever found it funny though.

Lucasfilm owns it, and Universal should still have distribution rights unless those have lapsed.
Unlike American Graffiti, Universal put little to no money into Radioland Murders so its highly likely their rights have lapsed.

As I mentioned in my above post, Universal still controls at least distribution rights, as evidenced by their provider credits on streaming services like Vudu and iTunes. If Radioland Murders was being distributed by Lucasfilm or another entity, it would say so. However, it is clearly labeled as coming from Universal.

I saw it when it came out and enjoyed every moment of it. Have it on both LD and DVD. I wish more people had seen it.
