USA Today (Tuesday, 5/6/03): "'Indy' trilogy ready to conquer DVD"
      You can read the article here, as well as on page 1D of the paper edition.
      It's news that I've known about for a little while now, but it's great that the DVD set's release has finally been confirmed in a mainstream newspaper!

I just wish they'd release them individually. I only want the first one. But of course if they did that they'd sell billions of the first, millions of the third and half-a-dozen of the second. This way they get to sell billions of all three.
Sigh.
Still, it'll be so sweet to see Raiders in digital. Yeah baby.

      My sentiment exactly!
      Since buying my first DVD player in October 2000 (I now have two DVD players, not including both my Playstation 2 and the DVD/CD ROM drive in my PC), I have not watched a pre-recorded VCR tape for over two years... until about a month ago.
      I popped my Widescreen Indiana Jones VHS tapes into the VCR (one at a time, of course ), and oh man what a dropoff in visual and audio quality compared to DVD! And I suspect that the quality of the tapes hadn't gotten any worse than it was before... it's just that I'd gotten so used to the digital quality of DVD's to the point of perhaps taking it for granted.
      It's unfathomable that one of the greatest film series in cinematic history hadn't made it to DVD for so long - there are so many worse films out there that have long ago made the jump to DVD!
      Better late than never, I suppose.

I, too, can no longer view VHS tapes of movies. The quality is just so durn poor. As for the wait, I don't mind. If it has been restored frame by frame I'm sure it will be well worth the wait. Add in the whole disk of extra, which if they follow the Lucas/Spielberg mold will be excellent.
I'm willing to wait for greatness any day of the week.

Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something.
Frodo: What are we holding on to, Sam?
Sam: There’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.
