Talk:The Beatles: The First U.S. Visit

Release date?

Why 2003 is indicated as the film release date? My research shows that it is first released in either in 1990 (according to amazon.co.uk and to one eBay seller) or in 1991 (according to amazon.com). IMDB indicates 1994 for some reason. Both UK and US editions of Amazon indicate Feb 3 2004 as the DVD release date. --BeautifulFlying (talk) 22:14, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

The DVD came out in 2003. The DVD has significant extras that, to my knowledge, did not appear on, e.g., VHS releases. However, in light of the dates you provide and the fact that I first saw the VHS in 1996, I find it ridiculous that this says "2003". I say we should go by the copyright date given in the on-screen visuals in the closing credits of the main documentary. — President Lethe (talk) 04:39, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

All available sources point that VHS version was released on Nov 13 1991, as well as that DVD was released on Feb 3 2004. Don't know what 2003 is about, but my guess is that's when the copyright was legally registered before the official release. Many Laserdisk editions currently auctioned are marked as released in 1990, but, similarly, that might be the copyright date, not the release date. Alas, no official info on the LD release date :(. --BeautifulFlying (talk) 23:19, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
