Back to the Future destined for Blu-ray release?

This one has been around the block a time or two, but it's just too juicy to pass up. The famed Back to the Future has always seemed like a perfect fit for a Blu-ray release, and based on a few hints dropped during a recent screening and cast reunion near Orlando, it could be happening. Writer and producer Bob Gale was quoted as saying that what folks were seeing in the theater was the "digital master for the upcoming high-definition Blu-ray version of Back to the Future." He continued by saying that he "didn't know when it was coming out," but affirmed that he was "involved in the mastering [process]." Go on and cross your fingers, alright?
