We'll have 26 film A-Z sale on Amazon in September and maybe another on in October.

Gotcha. I saw it there, but I remembered there was a period of time where it was slated for December.

Sweet about the sale. Need to start picking up those Fox titles. .

Is there a difference between the Kino Lorber and Scorpion version of Monster Club? I can't even find a listing for the Kino Lorber version on the site.

Any chance of getting the rights to Arthur Miller's "A View From the Bridge" the 1962 film as directed by Sidney Lumet is pretty good, not great and never had a home video release. This was a French produced in both English and French language versions

Sorry, but no.

"pretty good" and "not great" are not very good endorsements

Does anyone know if Kino ever plans on releasing on BD any of the Michael Haneke films that it had in the below now-OOP boxset?

Pretty sure most of these are with Criterion now.

Thanks (I know, but you can say that about 80% of the films released)

It should actually be listed under Kino since they are the distributor.

I don't think that's accurate. Kino is Scorpion's distributor, but Scorpion is an independent label, not a Kino sublabel. The site hasn't applied that standard to MGM (Fox), Criterion (Sony), Arrow US (MVD) or any number of other independent labels.

They've applied that standard to other studios for example, WB releasing Paramount releases.

But on the other hand, they did apply it to Winter Sleep, which is actually from Adopt Films, and distributed by Kino. This site's database has it listed as being a Kino Lorber release. The same is true for three other Adopt Films releases: Barbara, Omar, and Victoria.

It gets a bit confusing when Scorpion is involved. There are some releases that are actual Scorpion releases distributed by Kino. There are others that are recommended, and put together, by Walt Olsen for Kino, and released -- not just distributed -- under the Kino Lorber label.

There are also those that Scorpion distributes through third-party sites such as ScreenArchives and Code Red's BigCartel site; e.g. Doctor Death, Hollywood Boulevard, Haunting of Morella (Blu-ray), Go Tell the Spartans (Blu-ray), etc.

A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE has been on my Criterion want-list forever. I suspect that the Arthur Miller estate is the reason why it has never been released on home video, not even in France, I believe.

Monster Club is a Scorpion Releasing title, Kino Lorber distributes all Scorpion titles except for some limited edition titles which are sold on the Screen Archives website. We also distribute Raro, Carlotta, and a few others.

No argument that Monster Club is a Scorpion releasing title but this site's rules has been to list the titles, on this site, under/based on the distributor of the title and not necessarily based on the studio/label as I've understood it. However, there seems to be examples where this site has gone both ways.
