What is the "top-button" work-around?

I was extremely bummed that Spider Baby, Motel Hell, and Deranged were region locked, so I would definitely buy Spider Baby if it works!

I have 5 TT titles, all bought within the last couple of months. I found out about 4 of those 5 by seeing the blu-ray.com reviews. No TT reviews here means way fewer sales to me. Smart move, TT.

Even Robert Harris can be mistaken. Look with Madame de.

I'm happy to see the two Sinbad movies coming in December but has there been any word on "Three Worlds of Gulliver", "One Million Years B.C.", or "First Men In the Moon" from TT?

I probably will order the two Sinbad movies right away. Is there a specific time of day that the pre-orders go up? Hopefully it's not 12:01 am because I'll be sound asleep :-)

I think the First Men in the Moon was kind of unofficially announced.

RalphoR · 10-11-2013, 09:33 PM

That's great! Thanks for letting me know. Only 3 or 4 Harryhausen blu-rays to go!

Arkadin · 10-11-2013, 10:04 PM

BREAKING!!!!
actual real TT news--

pre-order for The Way We Were is Wednesday October 23rd at 4 est.
no confirmation as of yet if the other 2 Nov bds are also going to be available for pre-order at that same time, but I would suspect yes.

When you insert the disc, you will get a wrong region error message on the screen. Press stop, then the 'pop-up menu' button on your remote. The main menu will come up, and you can watch the film. I assume the extras play as well, but I could check in a bit.

That's true. Dave got that information from our site: http://www.3dfilmarchive.com/House-of-Wax

They do, buy away! I have no idea if future pressings will be 'corrected', however,

EffenBlue · 10-11-2013, 11:13 PM

Received a shipping notification for Mindwarp, I guess the issues were worked out.

Just reminding people that this site has an "ignore" feature which can make this thread much, much easier to read.

Someone tell Redman.

Finally reviewed here...

but don't let the negative comments about the color put you off. It's still a great looking BD.

I wouldn't have even began thinking about twilight time as a label, instead of just a name that i occasionally saw in blu-ray reviews, had it not been for this site. Because of this site, i started following tt, and have since purchased 16 of their releases since march.

Didn't Mr. Redman express some concern regarding "TT collectors" (folks that buy every TT release) and the increased amount of releases their label is putting out? Then why would they release 5 blu-rays in one month?

That's a pretty expensive haul ($158) for just five movies. $158 on Amazon could get me 14-15 BDs easily! Seriously, if Redman was really concerned, why not just stick to 3 releases every month?

Greed. I hope it backfires. 3 was even too much. 5 is ridiculous.
