BDs That Are Out of Print (OOP)

[NR1]

Snagged a sealed copy of Tobe Hopper’s 1986 Invaders From Mars off Mercari!

GOOD BAD FLICKS did a nice video on the film a few months ago for those unfamiliar and interested:

Bought one from another seller for 12.69.

I saw this film once in the late 2000's and didn't like it. Giving it another shot.

Not a big price to pay if I don't like it.

It’s actually the same seller, they just relisted it at a higher price. They likely have quite a few copies.

It’s funny you mention that, I actually got mine on eBay just recently because I couldn’t find it anywhere else and I had to get one before it’s too late. Well worth it if you ask me 😎

I give it a few months before Mill Creek puts out a poorly encoded version with a VHS slipcover.

EDIT: I would much rather see Shout Select pick up Bowfinger or Logan Lucky

Not much for "double-dips" but if Shout releases Bowfinger I may bite.

I hate those because lots of times they have lossy audio and no subtitles.

They're really not great. I hope that (should a boutique have received the rights) it is a good company.

Shout would be all over Bowfinger, Logan Lucky if Universal made them available. What I think will happen with Bowfinger, Logan Lucky is Universal will release them as MOD Blu-ray eventually. The UHD is the one to get of Logan Lucky, that may be OOP for good.

Can't say for sure, but Bowfinger could be a stocking issue. EDtv was unavailable for a period of time during the pandemic as well. But any title that is desired should probably be obtained either way if you have any doubts and can find a cheap copy.

yes, most posts are about titles that have been oop a while and are no longer available at retail or at reasonable prices with 3rd party sellers. Bowfinger is an exception because we have a legit chance of scooping one up before it dries up.

If it comes back in stock at retail (and I hope it does for others' sake), then I'm perfectly fine with rushing out to get a copy because I didn't pay any more than I would have with the restock. Now, the opposite circumstance where it stays OOS and I never got a copy.. I would be very frustrated... as I'm sure most of you would be. I always just have to think back at Splash, the Aussie release, to feel the pain. I had many chances to get a copy before it went OOS for good, and just didn't get it done.

Funimation:

All the Fullmetal Alchemist stuff is I'm pretty sure but those are the main ones.

Strand Releasing:

I deleted my post because I thought I was babbling on but yeah Splash is classic and sometimes you think it will just be available until it's not. It doesn't help that Disney censored the movie on Disney Plus and the Blu-ray is uncensored. I doubt Disney does a Blu-ray for the USA market and it could be censored if they do. It's a hot commodity right now on Blu-ray for that very reason and it doesn't help it's OOP. That's a tough one to pass on but it was an import it's not like there was a USA BD. It's easy to forget about what movies are out on BD sometimes.

I didn't see this listed, but it looks like it's probably been OOS for a while. The distributor's webpage is down and the listings on Amazon and eBay are floating around $300. I also checked Diabolik, but they only have an out of stock DVD listed.

Updates made.

[dankrakafoon]

The following Kino titles are hard to find/expensive:

At the Earth's Core
Flesh + Blood
Last Embrace
Sabata
Sangaree 3D
Stryker

Can anyone confirm their OOP status?

The Last Embrace is OOP. Practically all of the titles in Kino's "While Supplies Last" sale that are only available on DVD are OOP on BD:

EDIT: All of the movies on your list are OOP except Stryker, which is available for $8 from Kino.

Yeah that's long done. I've been looking for it for a while for a decent price. Didn't find out about it until after it went OOP.

This was quickly brushed off when I originally posted it, and never added to the OP, but as far as I'm aware it never came back in stock. Safe to say it's OOP.
