I don’t publish as much in the way of video news as I really should anymore, as I don’t relish writing numerous tiny articles to re-publish the press releases for this or that. That’s not to say that there aren’t video releases I’m looking forward to, and I do like to do my part to make sure that you have the opportunity to look forward to them as well. My last round-up article seems to have worked well enough to that end, so I’ll be continuing in that format here with two revisions: This expanded edition will include both upcoming Blu-ray and DVD releases, and will be divided by distributor.

A home video release 45 years in the making – ‘Crack in the World’ coming to DVD in 2010

Color me surprised, but when a company I’ve never heard of announces that they’ve licensed titles from Paramount’s hefty catalog of previously unreleased productions it can be nothing but good news.
There is no firm street date as yet for this Olive Films DVD, just one of around 20 older Paramount properties the company intends to release by the end of the year. And while I find it doubtful that there will be much in the way of supplemental content given past experience, this is still exceptional news for fans who have been waiting for a proper video release of the title for the past two decades or more.
