If that's right then this DVD set doesn't sound like it's worth the money or rental except for perhaps the commentary.

Over 50 sites and publivations have announced the movie including Variety, popcrunch, mtv news, E! and movieblog.
 
The film will be set inside the world created in the tv show and will present “a compelling story that launches a whole new set of characters.”
From what I remember before we filmed the first episodes the original movie idea would have been simular to "The Running Man " movie which coincidently came out in 1987 (which means it was filmed at the time the american gladiators movie idea was pitched).

I think it would work if it was a movie about a contender's struggle to get on and then win on the show.  Then it would be similar to Slumdog Millionaire but with AG instead of Who Wants to be a Millionaire (perhaps that's what they're aiming for and we could see more movies centered around game shows).  However, there's only so far you could go with that concept and I find it hard to believe that AG was originally conceived as a movie.  If it's centered around the behind the scnees stories of the show, that belongs on TV not the big screen.  If it's just one giant episode of the show... I can't see it being a big draw.

AmGlad was originally supposed to be a movie in 1985 anyways. Remember the first season first half. Imagine that but more over-the-top, better costumes, more of a gladiator arena and crowd, large audience, and much more cheese.
I have no faith in an amglad movie done in 2010 by MTV.

Johnny Ferraro, creator of the "American Gladiators" TV game show, is bringing a live-action adaptation of the property to the big screen. The film will be specifically based on the TV show that first aired in 1988 and has been on the air ever since then. Former Legendary Pictures chief marketing officer Scott Mednick is producing this new American Gladiators. The goal is to create an action story that takes place inside the world Ferraro has created. "I look forward to creating a compelling story that launches a whole new set of characters," Mednick said. Believe it or not, this is really happening.
 
Ferraro claims that "American Gladiators" was originally conceived as a film, but the property "took a detour and became a TV phenomenon."
 
 
I am glad it was a tv show and not a cheesy movie. If it were a movie i would not have been able to work on it. The 4 year wait was good and common sense prevailed and it was a competition tv show (with first season cheese in the beginning).

Thumbs up to the interviews.
Most of us have all the episodes anyways so getting bonus material would be icing on the cake
 
but hey. if they can't secure interviews from lace, sunny, blaze, zap, gemini, nitro, malibu or laser then put interviews on season 2 and get season 1 on the store shelves.
Don't push it back. The dvd's will spark interest again.
