I've got just about every single Blu-ray release. I have all unreleased announced titles pre-ordered. I just picked up about 20 or so of the older DVD releases from Amazon. I hope the Arrow deal helps you guys out. TWF has got great taste in releases, and as a huge fan of Asian cinema, I am thankful that a label is bringing English friendly releases to market. Hope you can continue to do so for a long time to come. I'll definitely keep supporting you over here in the U.S.A.

It’s just a bonus feature though, no? Something that would otherwise probably not get a release? It’s a non issue to me. It’s not like it’s the main feature (in my opinion) that would be completely different.

Snagged Tetsuo I/II and A Snake of June from the Arrow offer for under USD$20 shipped since I had some unused points from long, long ago. Excellent stuff.

Yeah, it's kind of a non-issue. That's why I said it only cheapens the release. By the way, I also own the DVDs of the Tetsuo films (Tartan and Manga Video) and the trailers there look a million times better than the ones on this "bonus disc."

You will love A Snake Of June. It's one of his best imo.

the trailers on the ANIMERAMA discs are 4K scans! The features are only 2K, but if trailer qualities are important then you'll enjoy them!

Will Dangan runner get a release on blu-ray? I noticed it still doesn't have a release date.

Great to finally see this one on blu. Hopefully more of Sabu's older titles will follow.

I picked up Animerama on Monday and I noticed the details which are printed on the back of the slip cover such as the BBFC rating aren't on the Blu-ray sleeve, but the white space is still there. Are they all like this?

The listing on Amazon makes it look like it's two cases (one case per movie) in a slipsleeve. If that's the case, I imagine the barcodes aren't on the individual cases because they aren't meant to be sold separately.

It's one case which has a disc either side. There's no swing tray

Although I had hassle opening it. HMV left the red security tag in as it wasn't obvious it was under the slipcover as there's no cut out. A flat head screwdriver and a pair of pliers removed it

Ordered Getting Any for £4 plus postage on CEX and arrived in less than 24 hours minty with a slipcase. No doubt it will be £6 in Fopp from Monday as they start a Third Window Films promotion. I picked up Antiporno there on Thursday for £8 which had just dropped in price so I think that's the upcoming sale price for that title.

Are you serious that Fopp are doing a TWF promo or just suggesting it as a “just my luck” scenario?

Not gonna get to my local one until Friday to check unfortunately. I'm also interested to see if there's a promo on as their site only seems to mention Second Sight and Criterion offers. Nothing mentioned on the Fopp or TWF Facebook pages either.
