This is the 25th Anniversary of the following movies "ET" "TOOTSIE" "Gandhi" & "VICTOR/VICTORIA". We have a great DVD editions of "ET" & "Gandhi" however its about time we get special editions of "Tootsie" and " Victor/Victoria". "Tootsie" is the #2 comedy of all time on the AFI List of the top 100 movie comedies. Victor/Victoria was years ahead of its time. In fact Victor/Victoria is a movie that seems to getter better as time goes by. If Victor/Victoria was made today it would win Best Picture of the Year.
However there is another movie that deserves a 25th anniversary edition dvd and that is the Robert Altman movie "Come Back to the five and Dime Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean". In fact it still hasn't been released on dvd! A dvd with all tose extra that we love would be a welcome edition to millions of Cher & Robert Altman Fans!
However its 2007 not 1982. Columbia/Sony needs to give us the Ultimate Collectors Edition of "Tootsie". I want the works. The main cast is still alive. The director is still alive. In 1991 Criterion Laserdisc did a release of "Tootsie" and it was very good. However Columbia has never given us a DVD worth buying!
"Victor/Victoria" has been released on DVD. The DVD had a commentary track but it was terrible. We need to have a better commentary track! Also what about a documentary on the making of the movie. Years later MGM and Blake Edwards ended suing each other saying the movie lost money when Blake Edwards saying "it didn't". Also the documentary can cover all the controversy the Broadway production had.
"ET" had a great DVD release! However it don't feature all the deleted footage! There was a seen Harrison Ford Shot where he was playing Elliot's school Principal. However even if we get a new edition forget getting a commentary from his Holiness Steven Spielberg he doesn't do them. I guess he is afraid! So maybe we will get a cast commentary!
