Paramount-era Toho/UPA tapes

This time I'm going to have to try not to be off-topic.

Regarding the Paramount releases of the Toho/UPA titles (if they existed), wouldn't Paramount have to get permission from Disney/Buena Vista Home Video to use the WDHV-era masters? And would these Paramount releases (if they existed) be duplicated at Rank Video Services America, or would they be duplicated at Technicolor Videocassette? 69.85.235.224 12:03, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

  • It's possible Toho received the WDHV-era masters back when Carolco's international rights expired, and simply didn't bother to make new videotape masters when assigning the ancillary rights to UPA, which would mean UPA would have been stuck with the Disney masters. Also, the Paramount tapes would've been duplicated at RVSA using Master Sharp technology. --IlCattivo25 (talk) 19:24, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
