TWILIGHT TIME LOW QUANTITY UPDATE:

These 4 new titles are moving very briskly - best not to wait.

THUNDERBOLT AND LIGHTFOOT (less than 700 remain.)
WILD AT HEART
USED CARS
BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA

The following titles all fall into the 500 - 700 remaining category:

MY COUSIN RACHEL (DVD)
BELL, BOOK, AND CANDLE
AS GOOD AS IT GETS
THOSE MAGNIFICENT MEN IN THEIR FLYING MACHINES
BYE BYE BIRDIE
THE BLUE LAGOON
EXPERIMENT IN TERROR
OUR MAN FLINT
LEAVE HER TO HEAVEN
HARD TIMES
THE DRIVER
SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE

The only Blu-Ray on that list I'm missing is Alfredo Garcia. Just placed an order for it now.

I'll likely order Wild at Heart, Two Rode Together, and Man in the Dark to get a free autographed Garcia on Wednesday.

Edit: But that won't take me to $100, will it? For once, I wish TT's prices were slightly higher!

bruceames · 04-20-2014, 02:46 PM

I'm only missing The Blue Lagoon from that list, but I can live without it.

Looks like the sale did have an effect, in dropping some of them into the 500-700 remaining category.

Yeah, I've tapped their 35 dollar titles in past promos even doubling Dundee as a gift.

I think those 3 blus will cost ya $96.10 total. I just ordered 3 titles myself and that's what it came to.

Just received my copy of Sexy Beast in the mail yesterday! Nice that the main menu offers the ability to watch in two different aspect ratios. I'm thoroughly pleased with the disc!

Yes, nice looking transfer and a great film!

Ellis Hugh · 04-20-2014, 09:40 PM

Just pulled the trigger on Thunderbolt & Lightfoot. This will be my second TT title, The Driver being the first.

I just now learned That TT has resumed sending screeners and am very glad to hear it. I can now resume to buy from TT although I think they acted very childishly. I think JMK handled the matter very professionally and should be commended for his fine work.

I have to say that the reason that I know that Twilight Time exists is due to these forums.

Dr. Humbert · 04-21-2014, 01:08 AM

And I have to say that this kind of behaviour from TT executives is essentially why I don't feel the urge to encourage them, like I do with other labels with friendly staff like MoC's.

bruceames · 04-21-2014, 01:13 AM

I only found out about TT from this site and now I have over 50 of their movies. Having a sticky thread with lots of activity on what is by far the most popular Blu-ray site in the world...well there's no better visibility than that so they should be grateful.

Blu Titan · 04-21-2014, 01:41 AM

Hey gents

,

As Twilight Time confirmed confirmed about a month ago, the site started receiving screeners again. We are trying to put all that drama behind us and move forward from it. I can only see it as counterproductive to rehash all of that. Obviously, we really appreciate the support from the members

.

Thus, I removed about three posts that have quotes from months ago when all of this happened. The way I see it, we get to read all of the awesome TT reviews from JMK(best TT reviewer in the business IMHO) and the label gets additional exposure. A win/win.

Does MGM still hold the rights to WITHOUT A CLUE starring Michael Caine? It'd be nice if TT could do a release for this. I don't think this title has ever had the proper release on home video. All have been non-anamorphic transfers. And I really want to see this movie bad.

BillWatkins · 04-21-2014, 09:38 AM

Ask them to send a screener of Mindwarp. Seems like they have enough spare copies laying around.

The Great Owl · 04-21-2014, 01:29 PM

I just placed an order for Sexy Beast.

Sexy Beast is one of those movies that has always intrigued me, but I have never taken the time to check it out. My viewing of Jonathan Glazer's brilliant new film, Under the Skin, this past weekend gave me the final push to make a blind purchase.

rrpmpstck · 04-21-2014, 02:52 PM

I watched Thunderbolt & Lightfoot and Used Cars this weekend and I thought that they both looked fantastic. Used Cars had the better PQ but I was pleasantly surprised by how good they both looked.

Mr Kite · 04-21-2014, 05:24 PM

Does anyone know at what time (GMT) TT will be putting Rollerball up for preorder on the 23/4/14?
