Re: Canadian Blu-ray Releases - Complete List and Discussion
I wouldn't be surprised that if we see no catalog Miramax / Dimension Blu-ray releases for the next year or two until the new investors partner with another studio or decide to go the self-distribution route.
Disney still has the rights to distribute Miramax / Dimension titles only until late-2011, but why spend the money on releasing catalog titles if they only have the ability to sell them for only one year?

As for Scream, I've sampled each one and my quick PQ ratings would be :
Scream - 3.5
Scream II - 3.75
Scream III - 4.25
Scream I and II does show some DNR/EE.

The only way I can see a 4-film Region-A box set for all Scream films, is if Alliance puts out another set haha. Since they will be handling most Vivendi/Weinstein titles, but who knows if they'll still be distributing the 'ol Miramax & Dimension titles in a year's time.

Christ! I hate this CA exclusive shit! I added 5 BDs to my cart thinking the prices were pretty good right now. They want $18.xx shipping! Why is it cheaper to get stuff in the US from Amazon UK than from Canada. Did somebody flunk geography? Canada is a hell of a lot closer than the UK! Hell, I probably live less than 8 hours from the border.

When I want to ship within Canada, its costly. But if I ship to the US its cheaper... Very odd indeed.

Make It Happen! I imported that on Blu-ray from the UK and...well, got a laugh from somebody special when I asked for an autograph last summer:
