I thought it had already been released, I'll have a look, see if it's an enhanced version.

Once again, from the I'll Believe It When It's In My Hands Department...

Every few months, we get to resurrect AFRICAN QUEEN release news. In the US and even on BluRay, "March 2010" is the latest release date for AFRICAN QUEEN. They've even got artwork.

But I've seen that all before. I don't remember if that was 1996 or 1997 when they started tossing out lures to see how many nibbles they'd get. I'm surprised they even bother baiting us.
