EDIT: Though I'm thoroughly surprised Gun Fury is so low... Hasn't that only been out a few months, and weren't the reviews of both the scan and the film middling at best?

Surprized me as well and it made me pull the trigger! Not quite believing it is that low, however!! Better safe than sorry!

Those low quantity numbers are for the Twilight Time Movies site, not Screen Archives.

There is a very strong and passionate fan base for classic 3D films.

It hasn't even been out two months though... It came out mid-September. Assuming they split stock evenly between SAE and TT, that's 1450+ passionate 3D film fans buying it at full price in <50 days. And as much as I like Raoul Walsh, I find it hard to believe he's got a passionate fan base that's complimenting the passionate classic 3D fanbase...

Well, Rock Hudson has his fanboys, too. This was also the first OAR release of Gun Fury, which probably has more to do with its brisk sales.

Keymaster · 11-15-2017, 07:32 PM

I'm not taking any chances. I ordered Gun Fury and Inferno 3D from SAE just now.

I threw in Play Dirty because I love WW2 flicks and classic Michael Caine.

As far as Caine's war related films, I prefer A Bridge Too Far and Too Late the Hero to Play Dirty, but all three are solid WW2 films.

This does appear to be true. We wish we had a load more 3D titles!

First time ordering from Twilight Time, I got The Train a few days ago.
The Runaway Train I loved when I was younger but I despise Julia's brother so I didn't get that. Is he ok in this?

Looking through SAE website, never ordered from them before, Big Heat and Violent Saturday are in my Q so far. Searching this thread for recommendations.

Are both TT and SAE fast service/good packaging/easy to order from?

I never have any problems with TT's packaging and I've never had to wait more than 3-4 days for my purchases. I have no experience with SAE.

If you’re ordering more than 1 or 2 titles, SAE is impeccable for packaging. During sales they sometimes take a while to get the order out the door, but once they do it usually arrives promptly.

BwayJ · 11-16-2017, 03:15 AM

TwilightTimeMovies.com has sold out of THE HAWAIIANS, SOLOMON AND SHEBA, and TWILIGHT SAMURAI.

rognvaldr · 11-16-2017, 03:30 AM

I ordered Big Heat and and Violent Saturday from S.A.E.

JoeDeM · 11-16-2017, 09:13 PM

right after I placed my order I see the low quantity for Gun Fury, so I had to do a second order, would hate to miss it.

Fat Phil · 11-16-2017, 09:43 PM

It's been a while since i've checked the TT low quantity/sold out list and i'm surprised (in a good way) to see so many titles i've bought now in the sold out column. The Mechanic, 10 to Midnight, Salvador, Under Fire, Sexy Beast to name a few. Reminds me how lucky i've been to own and enjoy the hell out of these movies on blu-ray over the last few years. I know TT sometimes gets a bad rap for their business model but those titles I mentioned still have no release in the UK (well, Sexy Beast does but 1080i so naa!). Without these guys, where would some of my favourites like The Fabulous Baker Boys and American Buffalo be - DVD limbo. I don't think it ever occurred to me just how grateful I should be. I'm getting all misty just thinkin' about it

Not to be the killjoy for you, but the Roadshow version of Hawaii is in SD, while the theatrical version is in HD.

Just thought you should know.
