He has before in other threads. I don't want to speak for him, but he's come out well ahead financially and gotten tons of free Full Moon stuff.

I read his posts in the full moon thread where he kept people updated. Maybe you should look there instead of the Twilight Time thread.

Yep, John Carpenter's Christine is coming from TT, but be warned that it will be a barebones release, so don't throw away that DVD with the extras.

"GizmoDVD" has made this (and other threads) entirely unreadable. How long is this going to be allowed to continue? How many times can one person attempt make the same point before it becomes completely disruptive?

Oh good, I was beginning to think I was the only one who thought that way.

It looks like NOTLD could sell out before it is even released. They have a limit of 2 per customer with less than 500 copies left.

Not bad for a flick that many seem to dislike.

I know I'm gonna catch Hell for this, but I cancelled my NOTLD 90 bluray.... because Vudu has it in HDX for $14.

I'd consider ordering the 1990 Night of the Living Dead if it had some more special features and didn't cost so much. I know Twilight Time is a smaller company but I just have a hard time justifying paying that much.

IMO, it's not a very good movie and not worth the cost. I have a few TT BDs and am grateful for the releases but this one just isn't good enough. I wonder how many were sold to people who plan to resell them instead of keeping them.

I'll be keeping mine. I've got some discs in my collection that would put some money in my pocket, but I feel like I'd miss them too much if I sold them.

He's the one who brought it up in a TT thread, not me.

Though I understand the gripes on the price, but at $30 plus shipping NOTLD sells out before release. Not too shabby. Granted that a number of those sales are for resale but those will sell for even more.

Re: The Official Twilight Time Blu-ray Thread

Producing such a limited run of NOLD is either genius or folly on their part. My guess is 1/4 to 1/3 of those bought will be scalped at ridiculous prices on Ebay / Amazon. If they had produced a run of 5 or 6000 copies, those scum known as scalpers have found this a lot less profitable exercise. The genius part is that maybe a limited run will backfire for the scalpers; as their supply will force them to "compete" with each other!

The movie is great, but I would have preferred the '68 version.

I too wonder how this is going to work for the scalpers, as I do not think this movie is nearly as popular as its brisk sales dictate. There are a whole lot of scalpers to be in the mix.

The '68 version is already out there and region free. Just can't buy it in stores. Check eBay.

Thanks.

You've spent 1% of your posts whining about me. Congrats.
