I think Pacific Heights is the new Firestarter: Rekindled.

It's been postponed so they can work on a 4K UHD of the R rated cut of Kangaroo Jack.

Catching up on the thread, and I see I have five more days of living in my delusional world that 4K upgrades of the Rob Zombie Halloween films will be in the October line-up.

If it's coming, it's gonna be Lionsgate Limited Steelbooks.

Gotcha. But do you have any updates regarding Super Sentai or Hasbro or Toei?

Agreed, just like the Arrow US and Arrow UK. Everyone knows what titles are UK and US exclusive. And since each title has their own thread, it just splits discussion.

On that note, I don't know why the Studios & Distributors subforum is still tied to the North American board. With the amount of labels that have opened up shop in multiple regions, it feels like they could just have it as its own subforum under Movies. Then we wouldn't have multiple threads for Arrow, 88 Films, Umbrella, etc.

Pacific Heights will be coming from Shout as they acquired Morgan Creek catalogue.

Why they would sit on it when it would sell exceedingly well compared to what they are currently putting out is another question.

I apologize for spamming.

Bought one of those Nu Image/Millennium DVD-R releases from May (Crocodile 2). It has the Echo Bridge logo on it. Guessing Shout only has digital rights for that catalog. Hopefully my old Lionsgate DVDs for those other creature films hold up for a while.

Regardless, thanks for giving us the current status on your deal with Hasbro.

With that in mind, I want to point out again there are some titles in their library that need to be released (again), even if it's just DVD only.

And I know this is a discussion for the Shout!/non-Scream thread (which I do wish you drop by more often!), but you need to reconsider the idea of releasing more TV shows on DVD/Blu-ray. Despite Mill Creek's good intentional efforts, you provide better releases even if it means having to pay a little more. You put quality and presentation first and foremost and make sure it's perfect whereas Mill Creek unfortunately has to use what's initially given to them (if you but out I Dream of Jeannie or Bewitched, you'd make certain the presentations are flawless and in their original aspect ratios and go back to Sony asking them for the correct materials). Don't believe me? People rather pay the extra price for Imprint's Bewitched releases instead of Mill Creek's. That should tell you they're willing to spend more if it means proper picture quality and presentation.

They sort of tried that a few years ago by creating a legacy sub-forum for Horror and other topics. Most of us lost our minds and after a few months things were reverted back. You raise a good point but honestly I still feel like it' easier to find things by keeping threads under each region/country.

@ShoutFactoryOfficial Sorry if this is the wrong thread to ask but is it true you're releasing the following titles on UHD ?

Song of the Sea
The Secret of Kells
Wolfwalkers

[Driver78]

My body is ready for more zookini.

No, seriously, how many bad remakes are there left to upgrade? Doesn’t feel like Shout has gone through the entire gamut. The Fog?

[MifuneFan]

Can't say more, but I think October is a pretty solid month with a nice variety. It even includes a brand new to BD/4K title (assuming that title isn't delayed of course).

Sci-Fighters?

[BobSimms]

When can we expect announcements for October’s slate?

MifuneFan, can you say whether the month skews more heavily towards horror and 4K? Thanks
