    They need to put this one on dvd/blu ray!

    I had the VCR tapes, but I haven't had a VCR in years. I have read many reviews and everyone agrees this is one of if not the best versions.of this Classic. Come on people, you can make money with getting this updated, which we all know is the driving force why companies do what they do.
