DVD Release?


Is this ever going to be released on DVD?

gottaseedvds.com has a great print.

Well, I have the old and long out-of-print MGM UK release of 'THE HIT MAN'. MGM released it in 1983 over there. Been OOP ever since.

On my video there was some dogfighting shown -- though I don't know if anything was cut from it.

Either way -- groovy movie.

Hard to find that Pre-cert.

I reckon I was lucky to round it up.

Tons of great DVD copies are on Ebay.

Just found out from Foxy Bronx that WARNER ARCHIVE will be releasing this very soon!

DVD-R, but better than no release!

It was NEVER officially released on VHS in the U.S. or Canada.

Glad this mofo will finally receive more attention.

Yes, DVD-R but an OFFICIAL release transferred professionally by the studio - a bit of a difference

I have it...

Yeah, so glad it's an official release too. I've got PAL VHS transfers, satelite feeds etc., but they were all widescreen opening credits, then the rest of the film is pan-scan.

Is the Warner DVD widescreen througout the disc, or does it jump back to 4:3?

I still haven't gotten my copy of this in the mail yet. Warner may have lost it.

Just watched my Warners Archive DVD last night. As bare bones as it gets, but decent picture quality and probably the best we can hope for!
