8mm (Nic Cage)

Kiss of Death (1995 Nic Cage)

The Beach (2000)

Nobody knows, although they answer these inquiries on their FB page all the time. If I were a betting man, I'd say good chance of Flight of the Phoenix.

If they have the rights to 8MM they should have released that one the same day as Hardcore.

Chato's Land doesn't seem to have a thread so I'll post in here that the interior art is a lovely horse-riding in the desert scene, and the booklet cover is better than the front cover.

Also got Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, interior art is them by the car.

It must be. Shipped today (30 miles away), tracking says I'll have it in hand tomorrow !!!!

Confirmed via Facebook.

If HARDCORE sells well for TT, I'd think we might see 8MM from them someday.

I think their Sony releases come when the films have been restored. Reportedly, HARDCORE has been restored in 4K. Perhaps 8MM hasn't yet been restored?

8mm was the only film I avoid like the plague. I know there are some sick bastards out there, living under rocks. Didn't need a movie to remind me.
Disgusting.

Does anyone know how many days it takes to get a shipping notice from TT site?
i was under the impression that it was quicker than SAE.

edit: hehe, talk about coincidence. 5 minutes after this post i got a shipping notice!

Ditto, 8mm gave me nightmares after I'd seen it, much like Seven. I don't think I could bring myself to watch either one again

With Kino announcing One Million Years, B.C., I guess that forthcoming Harryhausen title must be The 3 Worlds of Gulliver.

I felt the need to take a shower after watching "8MM". That film is not one I'd ever sit through again.

Got it ! Ordered late Friday afternoon > shipped Monday > in hand Tuesday.

Blown away.

Kind of surprised Kino is releasing One Million Years, B.C. with Studio Canal also releasing it in June but the cats out of the bag with what TT has Harryhausen-wise for us. And I for one am very happy! I always thought The 3 Worlds of Gulliver would be the last Harryhausen to make it to bd, if at all. Now the pressure is on Warners/WAC to bring us the last one.

Even if you don't "have" Facebook, you can still read their postings there. You just can't post questions or comments yourself. I occasionally browse their postings there, and I don't otherwise use Facebook at all.

Just go to https://www.facebook.com/twilighttimemovies and read away.

As for the first part of your question, there's obviously been someone from TT posting comments or answers to questions here, but it seems to be somewhat random and infrequent. Their Facebook page is where they place most of their effort in responding to customers/fans.

I placed a large order Friday, just hours after the sale started and I was informed today that my order has shipped.

Same here. Assuming that they are processing the shipments in the order received -- and I know that that might be an unwarranted assumption -- and Friday orders are going out today, it might be another day or two before Sunday orders are shipped. Or not. I suppose it would depend on how deluged they are with orders because of the sale.

After the 3 year contract on TT titles, does anything prevent another company from attempting to secure a contract of their own release? I'm specifically wondering about their sold out titles that they have made clear will not be issued as re-releases. Titles like The Egyptian, Enemy Mine, and Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines are over the 3-year mark and more are coming up soon, like the Sinbad titles.

I love TT but when a title is sold out and they've made clear that no re-release is coming, it would be nice to know another company has the option to do a release themselves.

What can anyone tell you? Hope that another company wants to license them, or that Fox will eventually do it themselves. Most likely they'll pop up in other regions, so get yourself an all-region player -- and keep your fingers crossed.

The Sinbad movies are available region free from Australia either as single bd releases or in a set that also includes The 7th Voyage of Sinbad and Jason and the Argonauts. The discs of the two OOP TT Sinbads are identical to the Australian discs even down to the isolated scores.
