It was a rumored title along with Twilight Zone: The Movie (which has since been announced)

I knew it was rumored to come out but I'm asking where he got the info for it being pulled.

Not only is that uncalled for... it assumes facts not in evidence. Speilberg doesn't have control over everything he's produced or directed. And I believe Poltergeist is one of those that he has no say about in terms of release and distribution.

If it is not coming out on HD DVD/BD this fall, it's because of Warner, not Steve.

My contact at WB emailed me with the information a few hours a go. Who knows, they (WB) may decide to still release it.

But he may indeed still be a douche

Nothing against BeatBoy, but why is this not also posted in the BR Software forum too? (Yes, I did a search.) It's Warner so it will be released on both formats. If your going to sh*t in everyone's cereal with this potential bad news, why not sh*t in BR software's cereal too?

I really hope this is not true.

I have a question. If it hasn't been announced how can it be pulled?

Exactly right. It never was officially announced, just "in development" via chats and such.

This is, what, like the second or third time in the last few YEARS that Warner has talked about releasing a new edition of POLTERGEIST -- only to opt not to release it.

Obviously I'll believe it's coming out -- when we actually get an official announcement.
