I entered this forum for the first time in a while with the intent of making a similar thread, but Rockbottom beat me to it. My question is:
When are we gettin' a Special Edition of this sucker?
I'm talking about a complete digital clean-up, color correction, restoration of the shots removed for the home video release (like that great 'crane shot' of Phantasm stalking Sol behind the cars in the parking building), commentary, interviews, cast retrospective, and -- most importantly -- a tribute to the great Shirley Walker. She composed the music you're all raving about, not to mention did the same for all the DCAU shows. Sadly, she died suddenly last year.
By the way, I'll answer my own question:
Probably never.
-- END!
