A Goofy Movie on Blu-ray?

[Sotiris]

Could this mean that a Blu-ray (or at least a Digital HD) release is in the works?

For the second Lincoln Film Festival, Lima is bringing along the one that started it all, "A Goofy Movie," in a newly remastered copy being shown for the first time to an audience. The restoration was triggered when Lima attended a revival of the film in Los Angeles several months ago. "I went to see it and I was appalled at the quality," he recalls. That shocking state of the film (faded, speckled, etc.) motivated Lima to ask the studio if a DCP (digital cinema package) could be created for the film. His wish, their command: "You are going to see it for the first time since its 1995 release in a pristine, beautifully restored version," promises Lima.

Thanks!! That is great news, fingers crossed we'll finally see a proper release for this.
Let's just hope Lima is also aware of the fact that the movie was only given one (!) release on DVD, back in 2000 (!!), which looked horrible and wasn't even widescreen.
