The Arrow Thread

Haha I'll be honest, I'm not a die hard that follows the politics of these labels, or missing the mortgage payments to pre order stuff etc

Happy as long as the likes of Arrow, 88 Films, Eureka, BFI etc keep bringing out your none Hollywood films.

Very well said.

I'm not sure of your point? Michael's brother works for the label and would have gotten him in the door. I like Michael, actually (although his criticism of the label and others suddenly went quiet when he was offered a gig via his brother), although class-wise he certainly comes from the stock that I would say Alex Agran approves of. Agran is a born-into-millions arrogant sod who once told me 'you make your own luck in this world'. If that is not classist I don't know what is. It is the same rhetoric used by Donald Trump - who was also not born into a family that exactly asked him to make his own way in this world.

If you look at most of the contribs to Arrow these days not one of them had to work from the bottom up to establish themselves (like I did). They have had a job or regular gig at a label predominantly focused on horror and foreign exploitation given to them based on affiliations with the BFI or so forth. If you can show me one Arrow person with a background of years writing about/ documenting the very cinema the label generally releases then, sure, I will eat my words.

Over to you...

No, I think that's all thanks - the thread has been de-railed enough.

On a subject related to Arrow's actual products my Hills Have Eyes has shipped from Arrow so it may even be here for the weekend... not holding my breath though.

I bought mines from Music Magpie. I'll be amazed if it turns up at all, never mind before the weekend! :-D

Hope I get it soon though. That, and The Burning Steelbook.

Can't wait.

Chomping at the bit.

I think The Burning's released on the 10th October and may ship before that date so it might not be too bad!
