Knightmare DVD Petition
-
I think most releases are on both VHS and DVD anyway. I tried to look at the past releases of Granada Enterprises to see their track record on this but they don't have that info on their website. Does anyone know how common are DVD only releases?
The new petition is unique compared to old Knightmare petitions as it is targeted to one company and specifically on a DVD release as we already know they are interested. I think someone from Granada said they would need to sell at least 2000 copies for it to be worthwhile.
Perhaps the reason why they haven't considered VHS is because they don't think there is enough demand to make it profitable. If there is enough demand, then they would be silly not to do a VHS release. Perhaps they might release a DVD first (which is less risky) to see what the demand is like.

sigh
ive just lost one huge long post due to it being "too long"
bah, basicly...
roxxy - i want no grudge match. me and kieren have a slight disagreement here i hope to settle calmly

a) we respect your opinion, however, that doesnt mean it sahouldnt be questioned. that really a problem for you if you're willing to put it up on a public forum.
b) "i think VHS deservses a chance"...your opinion which i believe you got annoyed at when people ignored as the "core" of your post. firstly your asking us to argue with an opinion which in practice isnt generally worth while. secondly we dont actually disagree. we do however overlook it as we have it as a lower priority.
c) janus stuck in my head as the most recent. while you have a right to be annoyed i'll say that firstly...It wasnt just emii >:(. janus came on strong, we all came strong back in what we considered a friendly way.
d) i dont mean that you intended for janus to see us like that, i know she can form her own opinions but since you saw the danger surely posting "woah, calm down, they're just glad to see you janus dear" would be more productive than "Cant we give her a NICE welcome"
i seriously cant believe you would think we were being anything but friendly.
e)while you appreciate DVD arguements but dont think VHS is dead, we dont think VHS is dead but appreciate the DVD arguements more (maybe more strongly)
f) i agree, maybe DVD will give good backlash for VHS. like i said above
possibly granada will decide of their own accord to release Knightmare on both formats -_^
illusion - I dont know for sure but i know DVDonly is increasing (esp amoung older films...not sure about series) ( i work in vid shop part time)
i think it's directness is our petitions strength. we want this. we want you to give it to us. will you? says it all realy

Just in case nobody's noticed, this petition is currently top of the popular petitions list, by some considerable way.
Let's just hope the petition continues to grow at this rate.
Edit: Â it's actually not far behind being in the top 25 of 'biggest petitions', either.
-
see and thats why it's working, a big group effort was put in to make the petition stand out. it's been forcibly distributed so far and has become the most popular petition because of it. as long as we keep up the pressure and bistribute to loads of friends/forums this state of affairs should happily continue.

Yells 'Hurrah! and then slowly backs into a corner with a book she can hide behind when things get 'interesting' again.

375 now, WOOHOO
I've just signed as well, If it is going to help bring Knightmare out on DVD then I am all for it.
Also its the most popular petition on there at the moment so its looking good, Come on peeps lets make it to 400 at least and show Granada we really mean it
-
Yes. Hopefully it will continue to increase fairly steadily. Sign it, sign it.
-
Yes and sign it on behalf of all your friends and acquantances and even those ones you don't know!
Nopesies. Methinks a smaller numbers of genuine signatures will be more persuasive. If they might want to sign it, however, definitely encourage them to do so.

I looked in a few DVD/VHS review sites, and found all the releases were under the name of Granada Media rather than Granada Enterprises. Just about everything I found that they'd released on DVD was also released on VHS, although I couldn't find enough evidence to see whether one format was generally released first or whether they were released simultaneously in most cases.
-
I think that my brother used to work for Granada, but I'm not that sure. I will try and ask him next time I speak to him if I remember. Also if he did I will ask him if he knows about if DVD releases are very common. He also might have been working before they even had DVD's.

The petition has 400 signatures. Our hardly nuclear family was slightly amused by the person who claims his occupation to be "Bum Tickler". With his ogre-ing work drying up what with the lack of kidsies and all, Grimwold- that's my hubbie, dearie- would be glad to know how he can get into this line of work. So, Mr. Bum Tickling person, if you're reading this, perhaps you'd care to give us a call on Brangwen's mobile number. We'd call you ourselves, but the Level 1 payphone seems to have been ransacked and, well, chewed, by some anonymous creature, although most likely a multi-headed quasi-canine of the electronically barking variety.
Seriously, let's try to sign it properly.

im thinking once the petition is downloaded and everything we should take out the stupid replys and simply inform granada of what we've done, maybe include those replies seperatly just incase they want a laugh. i mean, it's just pissed me off right now when i saw reply 396 or there abouts

was his name, city, age, occupation...etc. Â it just brings the tone of the petition down.

Hey all,
Yes, there were always likely to be some fabled Channel 4 comedians. It would be good to filter them out, and even good flippancy to send them to Granada as well! I'm about to send a nice e-mail to many folk about the petition, so hopefully that will bump numbers up by another 20/30.
Meh.. as the LEGEND Greg Rusedski said of the evilists who stole some of his personal belongings from his locker room while winning his semi-final yesterday said 'if they catch them, I'll put them in front of my best serves' - ooooooooooooh NASTY!!!!! Keep that feeling alive you disturbers of our petition - we'll ask him nicely to keep the serves going for longer!
KaM.

I think that they might've been trying to be funny. Maybe they did not want their identity known, but if that's the case then why didn't they hide it like others!
