I certainly don't have anything against Arrow and have and will continue to buy the company's releases but they've set themselves up for a big fall in the US, IMO. They're entering too late in the game and that cringe-inducing Indigogo copy in which it was mentioned that they (and I'm paraphrasing) were going to "show the U.S. companies how it's done" was as arrogant as it was naive.
I completely agree and, with Arrow seemingly more interested in BFI/Eureka type films than the ones which developed the original fan base, I wonder if the US expansion will be a colossal misadventure.
