DTS titles announced but most probably never released

[Andrea Rossi]

I dug in the archive.org on archived DTS website(s) to find out which titles had a theatrical release, and I found some that were announced, but most probably they were never released.

If someone has or had any of these discs, or was aware of their existence, it will be great to know!

Flight 93 (2006) was a TV movie, not to be confused with United 93 (2006) from Universal which had a DTS theatrical release (SN 5654)

[Andrea Rossi]

Thanks, going to delete it right now!

[David Schoonover]

I was a projectionist in the early 2000s at an AMC and I feel like I recall the discs for Dr. T and the Women laying around the booth while I was there. It stuck out to me as I had a pretty miserable time seeing the film at the same multiplex before working there.

[Jerry G. Axelsson]

I am pretty sure I have seen DTS with these prints when we played these titles in original release:


Bedazzled (2000) Fox

Dark Blue (2002) MGM

[Ryan Gallagher]

Did you already poke Brad? Film Tech seems to have quite the archive of DTS audio. Have gotten needed STs from him before.

[Andrea Rossi]

I guess Brad has everything and more, but I wanted to post in the forum to hear also from other users - in this forum I've found A LOT of info never found everywhere, thanks to the huge amount of collective experience here!

Andrea - It's not wise to declare something based upon someone's recollection. Always stick to the facts or proof. Remember also a number of prints had a dts timecode track on them, but dts discs were never authored for them (usually when it was found the movie was bombing on early screenings with test audiences).

[Andrea Rossi]

Brad, thanks a lot for the corrected list!!!
If you have also the serial numbers, it will be great...

[Brad Miller]

It took a good chunk of time just to verify the above list. Why in the world would a serial number of the timecode matter? That seems to be taking this a bit far.

[Andrea Rossi]

I'm really sorry Brad, I apologize.

[David Ferguson]

The list I have has some differences with your current working list... I have Dark Blue as having a DTS release in French only, serial 3746. Whether or not any prints actually came with a timecode, though, not sure.

[Andrea Rossi]

Thanks David!

So, was the French DTS disc(s) of Dark Blue actually released?
