Upcoming UK Blu-ray Releases

Ah I didn't realise that was the shameless disc included or ported or whatever. Figured CultFilmsl had picked the rights up.
Why on earth would anyone sub-license a title known to be iffy.

CultFilms owns Shameless, they used to be called Nouveaux Films or something like that

Hopefully the 1st of many interesting titles (And if they are Films, I've heard off, then it's a wonderful bonus)

The more Distributers of these type of releases, the merrier.

Are certain films not getting UK releases now on DVD/Blu Ray because See How They Run, Barbarian and The Menu don't have any release dates yet?

Wes Anderson's The French Dispatch still hasn't either and it's been on VOD for a year! It's a shame because I'd buy it immediately.
