• Well, looks like all the fears are true. DVD-Depot confirms that the Chasing Amy DVD (as well as the From Dusk ‘Til Dawn DVD) have been cancelled by Alliance. It happened due to pressure from Disney, who wants to release the flicks concurrently here in the States through Buena Vista. More than likely this means no special edition for either, which is a shame, cuz both flicks have amazing SEs out on laserdisc right now. If Criterion takes on Amy, we’ll at least get a dupe of the laser a-la Clerks which would be good enough (though I’m STILL crossing my fingers for a 16:9 transfer!).

Chances are none of you who pre-ordered were charged, so it’ll all be forgotten. Don’t fret, though, if Disney stopped production on those discs, it means they plan to at least put the flicks out soon themselves. Stay tuned.
