Any hope on Rob Zombie's Halloween on BluRay? - Blu-ray Forum

This would currently be a HD DUD release. The Weinsteins are in control of media distribution. But there has been word out of Comic Con that Weinsteins are about to go neutral starting with Grindhouse maybe.

Good catch, I was just going off the info from the OP. I think Weinstein's are in a good position, being a company that (this could be incorrect) hasn't released anything on either format. I think after the onslaught of BD news last week and the (probable) b*itchslapping HD-DVD will get with 300, they'd be wise to switch, and they're in a good position to reconsider.

The Weinsteins have a few hd dud releases out, one of which is the original Clerks.

Hopefully the war will be over by the time this is due for "video" release... Im guessing January??? Its usually what 5 months after a movie's been in theatres???? On average?

used to be six months but hey you never know nowadays. I dont think the War will be officially over, but it will be pretty darn close.

Clerks would be a Blu Ray exclusive because it is still owned by Disney. Because all the old Miramax and Dimension films are still Disney. But the "New" Dimension films (starting with Derailed?) are under the Weinstein/Genius umbrella. That would be something - a franchise split like Clerks between HDs.

I just searched everyplace I know of, and the original Clerks is nowhere to be found on HD DVD. I know they released Clerks 2 in HD . . . was this a typo? I forgot Clerks 2 was released after the formation of the Weinstein Company.

Yeah I know Clerks 2 is on HD... and thats a Winestein/Dimension release right????

I havent heard of Clerks 1 coming out though????

Ok my mistake, I thought it was the first one and not the second one. I forgot it was the second movie. I wasn't too big a fan of this one.
