Canadian street dates....already out! - Blu-ray Forum

I just find it odd that there are so many Canadian dates listed in the "COMING SOON" section.....so many titles are already out....bizzare!

Nope, different distributor (Alliance) for a bunch of films that got tied up with Miramax (for one) or other independent distributors... lots of posts about this elsewhere...

Big studio pics are dealt with my the majors, indies/low budget sometimes get us discs early, sure, but often not as good as the final relase you'll get in the states.

it's not just Alliance dude...there are so many dates for Warner titles that have been released MONTHS ago....it's ridiculous...and especially when I have most of them and I can't throw my review up...it's pretty lame

Um, yeah that is odd.

Obviously a mistake by this site.

20th Century Fox & Warner Home Video did not cancel or make any of those titles OOP in Canada. (OOP would justify a new release posting)

there is a bunch of them listed for Mar.31st and they've been on shelves here in Canada, and are still on shelves (or on my shelves) for over 3 months now! LOL!
