I wonder if people should jump on the other Gene Tierney films Fox released themselves (Laura, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir) before they go OOP.

Yes. Yes, they should.

You can add On the Riviera and The Razor's Edge to that list. Actually, folks should just pick up all of the Fox Studio Classics titles they can. I don't think I've been disappointed in a single one of those releases.

I’ve been slowly collecting for the Studio Classics line (both the Blu line and the original DVD line) and I’ve enjoyed the majority of the films I own thus far.

I might even send an email to 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment asking about The Driver and Leave Her to Heaven, just to see what kind of response I get.

The Driver was one of the first Region B titles I ever bought, long before I even had a region free player.

My guess is a Twilight Time sale will start today or tomorrow .

I will say to Twilight Time and Sae . I hope both companies understand the importance to their sales and volume of sales their of is updating your customers before the sales of low quantity updates and not just saying low quantity but giving close estimates to what remains and follow up at least once a week .
This will drive your sales and sell out of more titles faster .

Pricing is really important as well . Many of your last few sales most prices were not that great .
You are in the peek of christmas sales and your competing with the big boys . Amazon , Walmart etc. you want sales you need to deliver the price points to do so otherwise this most important sake to you will be a disaster .
All titles 2015 and earlier should be $5.99 or less
All titles and some of 2016 should be $5.99 - $9.99 or less
All titles 2016-2017 should be $9.99 - $14.99 or less
All titles 2017 and above should not be higher than $14.99 - $19.99 at most

Everyone knows the likelyhood is your going out of business Twilight Time .
I hope that does not happen . I am a fan . My message is meant to help . Listen or not it's your business . I am not a seller but I know their are many out there and if you really want to sell , sell , sell you have to make proce points were both your regular customers get a great deal so they will buy with you instead of elsewhere . In regards to sellers they have to get price points to were they can sell and make money based on fees they pay etc. If your prices are to high you will not sell hardly anything .

Make this sale count . By the way if you do not get this sale up today or tomorrow the sale will likely flop . Simply because many people are going to be traveling Wednesday , Thursday focusing on Thanksgiving , Football , Parades , Black friday with other companies . You better get this sale up or you will miss the boat .

Good luck Twilight Time & SAE go get em . Hope it's a great sale and hope you strongly listen to my advise . If you think about what I am saying it makes a lot of sense . I will not send my advise again . It's your business to succeed or fail and I do not get paid to give my advise anyways . Lol

By the way anyone interested in Sense and Sensibility at Twilight Time they only have 6 copies remaining then they are sold out of .

I'm sure they've been waiting with bated breath for your business acumen and expertise.

No. They're on hiatus.

How come? I haven't really read much of this thread to know what's going on.

That was the post that broke me, I finally just set him on ignore. If he ever says anything worthwhile, somebody please be sure to make a note of it.

Long story short, one of their founders died and since then, the company has been on pause for re-evaluation of the future.

That's sad that one of their founders died.

So never?

I'm too optimistic to say definitely never (which is the same reason it took me this long to ignore him). Actually, I'd be curious to know if he ever figures out the basics of punctuation too.

Hate to be the grammar police, but this one always bugs me as 99% of everyone gets it wrong.

"advise" is a verb. "advice" is a noun. You don't send someone your advise. You advise someone by giving them your advice.

A friendly correction.

His grammar is actually his strongest attribute, which is really saying something.

While we're at it, it's "likelihood" not "likelyhood", "too high" not "to high", and "peak" not "peek" of Christmas sales.

And then there's those God-damned spaces between the periods.

You're advising a poster who doesn't know the difference between "your" and "you're" or "were" and "where". "Advise" vs "advise" is gonna be WAY over his head.

Well, as someone with what is rather quaintly referred to as high functioning dyslexia, it's not uncommon to make mistakes with similar words, but you generally tend to be aware of the ones that trip you up and make more of an effort with them (and in my case often go back and re-edit). Of course, for those with more serious forms of dyslexia it's more problematic. Then there's the possibility of writing in a second language. So the spelling errors and curious grammar are things I can give a pass to. Less so the rest of the posts, especially when the Better Business Bureau mode kicks into hyperdrive... and more encores than a Jackie Mason gig.
