Website says "Slipcase edition limited to 1000 copies". Hopefully the non-slipcase edition is out soon, because I missed out on them.

Both Amazon & HMV still have copies, albeit at £25.

To answer my own question: Adam conformed that non-slip editions will follow.

Cinematt · 03-16-2023, 11:30 AM

I think he also said the non slip edition won't have the reversible sleeve.

Are there still postal problems in the UK? I received former orders from terracotta within a week (to the Netherlands), but my lastest order which was sent March 6, is still not received. Or maybe I should just wait a little longer....I'm just really anxious to get Electric Dragon and Punk Samurai

Watched Electric Dragon last night - still one of the coolest darned movies around. Picture quality was pretty decent too, aside from a few instances of banding/slight blockiness in darker sections on a few rare occasions.

Last month the UK post office was hacked and held for ransom. They had to completely stop international post for weeks and it created a massive backlog of post going both domestically and internationally. Just before then you had general strikes with post office workers (as well as many other people nationwide) on strikes, and on top of all of that you’ve got the many issues with Brexit which are hell for the postal industry. So everything is quite delayed.

Quote:

Japan's official submission for the 'Best Foreign Language Film' category of the 74th Academy Awards in 2002.

Based on the award winning novel by Kazuki Kaneshiro.

Sugihara (Yosuke Kubozuka) feels more like a misfit than most high school students, being the son of a Japanese mother (Shinobu Otake) and a North Korean father (Tsutomu Yamazaki). Changing schools does not help much, as he is simply taunted by a different group of kids. Fortunately, his father has given him boxing lessons to keep the bullies at bay. When Sugihara falls for the popular Sakurai (Kou Shibasaki) and she seems interested in him, he sees the possibility of being accepted.

Go £17.99 at Terracotta released 22nd May

Yurakucho · 03-20-2023, 11:06 PM

Just got around to watching The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.
Spent a lot of the film wondering when the film was going to start, but by the end it was quite charming.

Yeah if you can Terracotta is cheaper and TWF get more money compared to Amazon orders.

HighScore Valerie · 03-23-2023, 01:03 AM

Received my order of Electric Dragon and Punk Samurai. Beautiful slipcovers and I can't wait to revisit Electric Dragon!

legionofmonster · 03-24-2023, 05:56 AM

Did it come up yet that Third Window is releasing MAD CATS?

Terracotta Distribution as a label are shutting their doors after many long years of service in distribution (their online shop will still remain open for our titles!) so they’re clearing out all remaining stock

Stanshall · 03-27-2023, 06:32 PM

Holy shit, that's a real shame. Joey's appearance on the TWF pod was great, probably my favourite episode so far.

Terracotta isn't going anywhere - they are merely stepping back from releasing films under their own label. They will still be the best place to get Asian releases from other labels.

Stanshall · 03-28-2023, 06:02 PM

Cheers. That's a relief.

Yeah, I misread it at first on twitter and was shocked.
