Can We get this reissued on DVD?

Does anybody know how we can get in touch with GoodTimes Home video to get them to re-release this on DVD? I figured people from the company would get word on how much people are spending on used copies and try to re-release it. I will absolutely buy this movie just not for $60.00 and up. These prices are sad, im not paying this much for a single dvd, its ridiculous. And also if they do release it they should make it a special edition, possible a 2 disc set. It makes sense to me, because this was a big moment in television. It's funny how the soundtrack is in print but the movie and dvd are out of print. GoodTimes please re-release Peter Pan starring Mary Martin on dvd soon.

60 dollars for this DVD (or any dvd) is ridiculous. I wish this were still being printed. Sadly, about $69 is the cheapest I've managed to find (as far as popular sites go). If I were drowning in money, maybe I'd get it, alas, I'm a poor college student. Maybe some other time.

i found my copy at frys old rental sale a LONG time ago. some of you might be able to find it at a garage/yard/moving sale or any type of second hand store. i'm not saying it cuz you might be poor. (no offense) but because it's such a 'old' movie.

DVDs almost always go through reissues and rereleases, usually to commemorate with an anniversary. This version is almost 45 years old now; there could be a reissue of it between now and next year to commemorate its 45th. Now I don't know if GoodTimes Video still has the rights, but anyway...

You can find cheaper Asian imports for reasonable prices... they'll at least due until it's re-released.. f it's ever re-released.. just do a search on ecrater.com for Peter Pan with Mary Martin you should be able to find one

Just a comment on the "soundtrack".... That's not actually the soundtrack to this TV version; it's the cast album of the Broadway show which opened in 1954. It is, of course, the same musical with the same actors in the lead roles and (to my best estimation) the same arrangements. The album cover was redesigned to match the VHS & DVD artwork, and I'll also point out that RCA, who released the album, also had commercial airtime during the show's first TV broadcast in 1955 to promote this and other RCA original cast albums.
