Um, if it does get a DVD release from Paramount, I can almost guarantee that the alternate scenes won't be included (or they'd have included the infamous lost ending for "April Fool's Day" when they released that to disc). Paramount isn't the company to bug. Bug Anchor Bay instead. Anchor Bay lovingly releases the films that they acquire, grabbing up as many extras as they can find. Case in point.. their releases of Disney films ("Watcher in the Woods," "Tron," "Return to Oz," etc) came after Disney's disc releases and Disney's since re-released the films with the same extras that were on the Anchor Bay discs.
Write to Anchor Bay and bug them instead. Besides, Kristy McNichol's "The Pirate Movie" is about to be released by them.

Count me as another who would love to see this one on dvd. I would like to see a special edition with the additional footage added in, the Bellamy Brothers song that was omitted on the VHS, and interviews/reflections on the film with the cast today. The scene after Dillon deflowers MacNichol is truly touching. I bet I watched this 20 times on cable back in the early 80's. Bring on the DVD!

I hope it does get a DVD release soon. But knowing Paramount, they'll probably just put it out as a bare-bones, no special features disc meant for the Wal-Mart bargain bin. At least they might spend the time/effort to get the original music rights. I hope I'm wrong.
