But there's plenty of room for November 06, 13th and 27th.

Who thinks this has been the best year for Scream?

I decided to watch my copy of The Spell last night and I really enjoyed it. I’d hate to think that we won’t see any more obscurities like this from them, at least for a while anyway. I guess it makes sense now that they have two new studio deals. I just hope they’re willing to dig into the Warner and Sony catalog and won’t only skim the top now. The Scream for Help announcement was a good sign.

I just wanna know when they will announce The Craft?

[DenOfEarth]

On the Scream panal at SDCC that was on a podcast when someone asked a question if they can do Company of Wolves sometime, Cliff did said it's a possibility and that would be nice with a new remaster and buttload of extras.

Other retailers aren't being allowed to sell the titles until release date. Since Amazon has no competition for them they haven't been dropping the prices & likely won't until other places start selling them on release.

Last months announcements went on amazon within days as I ordered Creepshow . Whats changed this month ..

I have cancelled two pre-orders due to this.

Unless Shout changes their current practices, you’re going to pay the full $40 for Creepshow. People just need to stop preordering SF titles from Amazon until this BS ends.

Just prepare for this no competition pricing once Amazon completes their global retail domination.

I thought that was Walmart's goal? There's only room for one megalomaniac corporation on this world. If Amazon purchases their Chinese counterpart, Alibaba, then they'll be on the road to world dominance. Except, if things keep going the way they do, it's the Chinese who'll purchase Amazon. They're buying up a lot of property in my neck of the woods. And a large percentage of the luxury condo rental units are being snapped up by Asians. Amazon's Prime 2-Day Delivery will become Prime 6-Week Delivery once all shipments start originating from China

I just cancelled my Amazon pre-order for Piranha II because of this.

I also listened to the new podcast and really don't understand the disconnect. How can they complain about low sales when their prices are some of the highest among the labels? Lots of sales at a lower per unit profit must be better than very few at a higher cost?

[jim1985]

I couldn't care less about the price I just want to pre order the Critters set & Single white female . If shout factory would ship over seas I'd gladly order from them .

It's certainly frustrating and also very disappointing to see them starting to behave this way after being so fan friendly to start off with.

Yeah Walmart was top dog until the internet became more than a passing fad. I’m not some financial/economics/business man but I firmly believe there will eventually be one provider for all goods (not in my lifetime). I’m just an average joe who has less and less outlets to buy stuff from as the years go on.

Does anyone think Scream will have another site wide sale like last year?

[LeeFanatic007]

I canceled all my Scream Factory pre-orders at Amazon, not paying full MSRP. I can wait or buy from another retailer.
