Could the Laser Disc version of Dragon's Lair be coming to the C64 or is this really JUST FOR FUN?

Now I remember Dragon's Lair very well, from the Amstrad version with the jumping of platforms or trying to stay on the spinning disk without being blown off, or the interactive animated version which appeared as a laserdisc in which you needed to press a specific direction at the right time to survive. Both were simply brilliant games, but what has surprised me today is Antonio Savona has shown the possibility of Dragons Lair Laserdisc working on the C64 albeit in Black and White.

So it stands to reason why many of these games are now appearing on the Amiga such as the more recent Time Gal.
