Yentl - canceled?

#1 Post by Ashirg » Wed Feb 11, 2009 11:21 am

Did MGM cancel Yentl release? It was reviewed at DVD Talk and by DVD Savant, but it's not in stock anywhere.

There's a few new copies for sale on Amazon Marketplace. I didn't even know this was being released until it popped up on DVDBeaver. This might be an Ed Wood situation where some copies were sold and then a rights issue presented itself

I was surprised when I saw the DVD on this list this past week. I think it may be more of a Fish Called Wanda SE DVD situation that for some reason MGM decided to delay it.

The release wasn't canceled. I saw a couple of copies floating around at Target and Best Buy. MGM did release the film, end of discussion.

...and copies of Ed Wood were available at Wal-Mart, even after it was pulled from the shelf on the first release. You did not in fact end discussion

The film may have been recalled like Ed Wood, A Fish Called Wanda and Mrs. Doubtfire. Studios do that, you know. And like domino said, there is no end of discussion.

The dvd is back in stock, at least in Amazon.com.
