I just now realized there has never been a DVD release of Raiders of the Lost Ark - this amazes me. I had a craving recently to watch the movie, and was disappointed to find that it does not exist on DVD. No doubt there will one day be a lavish, remastered release of it, but I want it NOW! Anyone know anything about a planned release in the future?

You do know who wrote it, don't you ?


I think only one movie he wrote or directed before Phantom Menace is on DVD..

American Grafitti.

Huh - I must shamefully admit I had never noticed that. Is there any published interview where Lucas articulates a reason for not supporting DVD? It seems to me to be clearly a better format, and he certainly does not seem to object to the digital medium.

It think it's because Lucas is so anal over his work he wants to oversee everything in the making of the DVD's of his movies and just doesn't have the time now. Or he is just a jackass.
