Shamless did it with the Deodato pictures, putting them in a single collection with some new artwork. I'd rather not double dip unless its a upgrade to Blu and a massive improvement I'm not going to triple dip to the same format! Thousands of lesser known movies out there just waiting to see the light of day! Just seen Eyes of Fire. Although not great I did enjoy it and would certainly buy an upgraded version. | Trouble is, most non-cult fans stream their films, sales of hard copies are plummeting. Perhaps films like this might appear on some streaming site but for how long? Not enough hits to warrant it being there and it'll vanish. Perhaps i'm a luddite (in fact i most definitely am. ) but I suspect streaming may eventually drive the final nail into the coffin of retro releases.
Sadly given the expense of releasing stuff, a dwindling market for sales so a lot of companies are playing it safe and going for major releases.
Scorpion have taken some chances and the stuff they have taken chances on seems to sell poorly. I would mention code red but lets be honest, bill olsen seems to prefer poor sales so he can have a moan.
Still.....
My desire to remain poor shows no signs of stopping, went on marketplace this morning....
Exorcist box set is currently £20 fr4om supermart USA, just hope they ship it as the swine cancelled TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT twice on me, The Jimmy Wang Yu collection is a little under £13 at time of typing. Attachment 151359 Attachment 151360 |
