Anyone aware if this has been offered in digital? When I searched a few years ago, I only found Pro-Logic. This is one of my favorite movies. I am surprised how many people haven't seen it. This movie is so cool and has great characters. How can you top Ming the Merciless? Plus, that Queen soundtrack is awesome. Rolling keyboards throughout. This thing would sound awesome in digital. Any idea and anyone love this movie like I do?

    "Flash" DVD's are available and not only the movie with the Queen sountrack. The animated series from the seventies and , best of all, the original black and white shorts are all out there just waiting for you to grab 'em up ! Try Amazon, Google, etc. Post your impressions when you get the discs, I'm curious how they did with this old flick too.

    I found American made Widescreen versions and a British anniversary edition that has more features. The British version format is 1.85 Anamorphic Wide Screen. I don't know how the differs from the 16:9 listed for the U.S. If anyone can shed some light on this and has first hand knowledge of the quality of the digital presentation, I would like to know.

    Awesome link. Thanks. I'm fired up for the U.K. version regardless.
