What I'm saying is if BFI can't release it at this time
'"due to ongoing issues with the materials required for the release" (a direct quote from them), then I'm strongly speculating Kino won't be able to either, if in fact they have it in this new Paramount deal, which I doubt. There's really nothing there to misunderstand.
Are they refunding pre-order money because of this delay
"or cancellation", terminology used in the press release. Yes.
BTW, I don't see where BFI says they're
specificly waiting for a
4K remaster. Where did you see that?
