已經有結果了,今天ign.com也打出新聞,要大家購買「回到未來」DVD前,先明白因為畫面擷取格式錯誤的問題,報導說thedigitalbits.com網站去函環球表達意見,環球公司回應將在明年二月份推出重新設定擷取畫面版本的二、三集,屆時接受消費者的更換(不需連盒子一起寄,裸片即可)。

這個原因也是環球為何沒又寄送「樣本」DVD片,供各大英文DVD網站做介紹的關係(國外偷跑的DVD介紹都是電影公司提供的片子,夠屌吧?!)

以下是IGN全文報導:

Problems of the Future
Why you should not buy the Back to the Future Trilogy just yet.

December 19, 2002 - One of the biggest DVD releases of the year hit stores on Tuesday, but the three-disc set of the Back to the Future movies has a little problem that Universal doesn't want you to know about (until February 2003, at least). The anamorphic widescreen transfers on Back to the Future II and Back to the Future III were framed improperly, which means that elements in the picture that should be visible are cropped out.

Now, the studio is aware of this problem, and there will be a replacement program in effect starting in February, but that information isn't being made readily available for the people headed down to the store to fork out $40-$50 for the three-disc set. Thankfully, some store employees have smartened up and are telling customers about the problem, but Universal still has a multi-million dollar advertising campaign in effect for the release. They want as many copies to be sold through Christmas as possible, and then in February those people who bought the messed up DVDs will be able to send the discs to the studio for replacement copies.

This isn't an isolated problem with just a small amount of the shipment affected. Every copy of BTTF 2 and BTTF 3 on store shelves is affected by the bad framing. Everyone who buys the set will have the "defective" DVDs.

Our pal Bill over at The Digital Bits got his hand on the email that Universal is sending to people who ask them about the problems:

"Thank you for your email. Universal Studios will exchange Back to the Future parts 2 and 3 for copies with the updated framing in late February 2003. You may send the DVDs back now or wait until February. Please send Back to the Future disks 2 and 3, without the case, and a letter with the following information: Name, Full Mailing Address, Daytime Phone Number, Reason for Return and Return Address. Send to:

Back to the Future DVD Returns
PO Box 224468
Dallas, Texas 75260

Thank you,
Universal Studios Customer Service"




Also on the Bits is a little comment on how Universal has decided to not send review copies of new discs out to most DVD sites. That is why you did not see a review of the set up on IGN before the release date - we had to go down to the store and buy it just like you on Tuesday. We'll have a review of the set up very shortly, but buyer beware...
