Not very often anymore. Deep Discount used to have some decent sales on the Sony MOD line though not as low as Warner Archive nor Universal MOD line which are basically produced by the same company. Sony MSRP is generally $25 vs 20/22 for the other 2 companies so there is a bit of a premium even at the start. It's been even worse post COVID as lots of these small batch pressed MOD items tend to sell out and it takes long periods of time for them to get repressed again.

For a couple years I could predictably wait for $11-12 (occ lower) prices on Sony and 9-11 for the other studios. The last 3 years I can't remember seeing any sale on the Sony MOD line even getting to $15 ea and most of the time even $20 is considered a decent price.

It even worse for Internationals since the best deals have generally been from the retailers that don't ship out of the US like Bullmoose and Target and even FYE. I know Deep Discount ships to EU, but I can't remember seeing many even as low as $20 lately. MovieZyng ships internationally, but their prices rarely even get to a 10% discount.

Hopefully this will be better than the Mill Creek version.

Compression will be better with Sony and this release is supposed to be based off of a new 2K remaster.

Asked BlueUnderground if the Lustig films Hit List and Relentless have any chances to be released. They don't have the license to release them and it seems as Sony is sleeping on the films.

Really really hope that something happens to them though.

I wonder if Bye Bye Birdie and Pal Joey will be the same transfer as the twilight time releases? I think that's what they did with Oliver! I like Sony's cover art a lot better than Twilight's though.

[belcherman]

I’m very excited for Bye Bye Birdie. It’s the one Twilight Time title that I’ve kicked myself for not grabbing before it went OOP. Glad I didn’t have to pay 3 figures or stoop to buying a bootleg copy.

Great news!

Looks like they're also releasing Bingo (1991).......... Interesting choice, to say the least.

The 1991 movie I want from Sony that starts with the letter B is Bugsy! Not Bingo!

[HorrorBlu]

If this wave is going to be family films, Magic In The Water please.

Nobody more gangsta than Bingo

[whiteberry]

Bingo is very underrated

Loved BINGO when I was a kid, I’ll definitely order that one.

[filmbuffTX]

I loved Bingo as a kid and it still held up when I rewatched it as an adult. So I’m definitely interested in a Blu-ray.

The original DVD from Sony was in the wrong aspect ratio (1:33), but was in the correct ratio in Mill Creek’s “Hollywood Hounds - 4 Paw-Some Movies!” multi-feature, lol.

[Chaz05]

I saw Bingo at my local rental place all the time as a kid but never actually rented it.

I always thought Bingo lived on a farm

Watched Bingo for the first time not too long ago and it was actually pretty solid. It might even be a light PG-13 by today's standards. Thought this could get a chance of a Mill Creek release since it was released by them on dvd. The Sony may possibly have better encoding and thus a/v than if it were passed onto MC, but it's also pretty expensive.
