Dear New Line,
There are more fans of "Dark City" than you realize. Although we appreciate the initial DVD release, we ensure that an updated DVD release would be highly profitable for you.
As you know, if "Dark City" were released in theaters today, it would be much more successful. The movie has a cult following now that it has garnered an ever-increasing significant number of fans.
Alex Proyas (the director) has guaranteed that he will be willing to dedicate his involvement.**
As fans that fell in love with "Dark City", and collectors obsessed with the benefits of DVD, we PROMISE to buy the newer DVD. New Line, You have nothing to lose.

Suggestions for the DVD: 2-discs (maximum bit rate used for movie)

Everyone signing this petition WILL buy the updated DVD. New Line can charge extra (24.99? 29.99?) and WE ARE WILLING TO PAY THAT AMOUNT!

Petitions work. Right now I'm looking at my anamorphic widescreen version of “Willy Wonka”. Warner Bros. had NO plans on releasing it in widescreen. Enough people made a fuss and with 10,000 plus signatures, WB relented.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
