List of Twilight Time titles Available Elsewhere

[MifuneFan]

I decided to make a thread detailing all the Twilight Time exclusive titles that are also available in other parts of the world. This might be helpful for people who missed out on a certain sold out title, or just because they'd rather buy it from someone else.

I will detail the country, and the region coding whenever possible. I will also try to list any differences in extras, and links to any comparisons between the two releases when possible. Please feel free to inform me of missing titles, or any improvements to the layout.

Editor's Note: The Spanish labels Resen, and Llamentol are very likely bootleg companies, selling unauthorized copies of Twilight Time releases. Please buy at your own discretion

If I could also add, the UK release for The Fury blows away the TT disc, and it's cheaper!

Yeah, I'm going to add PQ differences after getting the list of titles done.

[welcometothepartypal]

Great idea! Thanks for your hard work.

[Alexander the Drake]

I looked up a couple of the TT anniversary sale titles to determine which of theirs I wanted to get. Here are the ones I was interested in which had other region BR releases:

Desirée (IT)
Philadelphia (UK, may have no extras)
Rains of Ranchipur (DE, as Der große Regen)
Roots of Heaven (FR, as Les racines du ciel)
Royal Flash (UK, seems to have all the same extras)

[tylergfoster]

Pretty sure As Good As it Gets lacks its one extra, the commentary, all over the world. Although I'd like to be wrong, then I can sell my DVD.

Thanks so much. Quite a few there I didn't know about. I'll be adding them a little at a time.

[bruceames]

Great idea. Would be nice to later add in any observed comparisons between the titles. I've been tempted to import a few but I don't want to if the TT version is better and on many titles I have no way of knowing (well maybe the info has been posted somewhere but it's a pain to dig it out sometimes).

No problem.

[MifuneFan]

Major Dundee will be getting a release directly from Sony in Japan, and presumably other countries

[silverlakephil]

Please add the French & UK releases of Violent Saturday. Thanks

[GenPion]

This is a great idea for a thread... a lot of good information has already been compiled for it too. Excellent work!

[MifuneFan]

Eureka (UK) will be releasing Rapture. It has a commentary track with TT's own Nick Redman

[DukeOfPrunes]

Caution with Resen & Llamentol releases from Spain. These are most likely BD-Rs. I wouldn't recommend to get these. Maybe a disclaimer at the top of the first post would be great

Drums along the Mohawks is now available (since January 22) in France through Sidonis Calysta:

Well, there are some "TT status" updates that need to be made. The following should now be marked as "sold out". I'm not sure what you want to do with Journey to the Center of the Earth, given that the reissue is not the same as what's available elsewhere.

As Good as it Gets (TT status: Available)
Bell, Book, and Candle (TT Status: Available)
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia (TT Status: Available)
The Driver(TT Status: Available)
Leave Her to Heaven (TT Status: Available)
Steel Magnolias (TT Status: Available)
Wild at Heart[/SIZE] (TT Status: Available)

[MechaGodzilla]

Hey MifuneFan, maybe you should make some edits to the first post. For example, the TT reissue of Journey to the Center of the Earth has sold out and The Big Heat is available again via the Encore Edition.

[drb124]

BFI has release bother Richard III and A Month in the Country with bost having substantially more extras than the TT releases.
