^ Hmm, this might not mean anything but I just noticed that SAE isn't mentioned on that poster.

Nice catch. That is interesting. I wonder if we're starting to see an inevitable parting of the ways? Anyways I'm curious to see how fast people are getting their orders from TT (and how well they're packaged).

schlock · 08-02-2015, 01:52 AM

^^ I hope not. I really like SAE, they always pack things super safely, it's easy to check your order status, their website is super simple (yes, old-fashioned) and easy to navigate quickly, I'm used to how the TT titles show up and how to get them quick, and I even like Ed - really!!! The site crashing on big horror-release days is a downer, but who knows if TT's site would handle that any better?

Just want to give a shout-out to the OP for so wonderfully maintaining the first posting - so nice to be able to catch up on releases (and coming soon) so easily and with all the links perfectly organized and easy to read.

Thank you!

Pondering over Henry Orient and The Best of Everything. "Maybe" is not a word that works of this label.

Maybe TT is using Square Space.

Last Twilight BR I picked up was Zardoz. Guna get Vampires for sure though.

What about At Close Range, Fat City, Count Yorga and Scream & Scream Again. Never seen any of them but kinda tempted. Any Good?

Most likely going to get the Sean Penn movie though...

Thats right.. If you like melodramas/ romance/movies about women who have chosen the wrong man and have some tragedies to the story then Id recommend The Best of Everything. Love, romance, adultery and great acting

Glossy soap opera, pure 1950's kitsch about the trials and tribulations of five NYC career women. Also if you like movie music it has a beautiful, melodic Alfred Newman score with Johnny Mathis singing the title....this and Joan Crawford's cranky/hammy performance are worth the price of admission alone. Just a heads up however: the blu-ray picture has a bluish tinge to it you might have to fiddle with your color settings if this bugs you as it did me, also unless you have a 5:1 surround sound system you will need to turn up the volume to catch all the dialogue

I saw Henry Orient a couple years ago on tv, was fairly underwhelmed at the time, and have pretty much forgotten it. Probably would be wise to rent it first. (I won't be getting it.)

Haven't seen Best of Everything yet. (Might get it.)

Wow what a fantastic cover for Count Yorga, the only time in history where artwork got me off the fence about deciding to buying a movie

Guess you weren't around 14 years ago when MGM released the DVD with the exact same cover art?

StingingVelvet · 08-03-2015, 08:21 AM

Gotta research both Yorga and Scream. I do collect horror in a lot of cases, but have not seen those.

At least they dropped the awful tag-line. I do wish TT would utilize original poster art now and again.

This Wednesday's signed promo is April Love signed by Shirley Jones, the minimum purchase is $149.75. I'm not all that interested in the film but I love Shirley Jones so I might bite on this.

timothy ramzyk · 08-03-2015, 09:55 PM

You'd think for the $30 price-point on Yorga and Scream they could do a little more than just recycle the MGM DVD art.

ParaOK · 08-03-2015, 11:27 PM

Can anyone comment on Angel? It's the only Neil Jordan film I haven't seen and I'm contemplating a blind-buy . . .

Might be interested if it was 4 tittles instead of 5.
Also no subs on April Love.I'm hard of hearing and need subs or CC in most movies I watch these days.

I don't know about Scream Again but I doubt if anyone could do much better on Yorga....the design and colour are eye catching and capture the mood of the film perfectly, pretty outstanding imo, recycle notwihtstanding. Why tamper?
