Deleted SHOOT OUT. IMholding out for OUR GUYANJA. Just like I thought SURVIVE Wasn't on Dvd until VCI put out our movie
Someone needs to do a thread/list of - Not on DVD/BD in the US but available Overseas.Louis Letizia said:Theres no question. And as the proud owner of many offshore discs-I do not think its the norm. The heading should read not on dvd in u.s. I do see your point.So many of these are available in non-U.S. discs, some even on Blu-ray, that I really think you should mark those in some way or eliminate them entirely from your list. As you can well appreciate there is a huge difference between something truly not on DVD versus BUGSY MALONE, say, which is cheaply available on a region-free Blu-ray. Then again, all of this has been discussed and hashed out elsewhere
I hope that CONRACK makes it to a disc format, but does anyone really give a hoot if it's Angelina's favorite Jon Voight movie? Even if I liked her (come to think of it, I can't stand her father anymore, either), I don't think this would be a really persuasive or exploitable item. If CONRACK comes out it's because it's a strong or, more likely, because it's part of a financially beneficial package of films for either the studio or a licensee.Louis Letizia said:Conrack is Angelina Jolie's favorite movie of her fathers -as she has stated.
Louis Letizia said:Whether we are fond of Voights choices of late-we cannot dismiss his body of work in general. Even his bad performances are fun -Anaconda anyone? But, he is gettiung a bad rap while his contemporaries have all been in atrocious films of late- Al
Pacino in 88 Minutes , Jack and Jill. Robert DeNiro in New Years Eve. Dustin Hoffman in Mr. Magorium? All atrocious movies with ridiculous performances and somehow they come out unscathed. I thought Voight was pretty good in Pride and Glory recently.

I think you may be right...this may never be released here. The other PSO releases....HEAVENLY BODIES and MISUNDERSTOOD were MGM theatricals but haven't reached MOD yet....unless they aren't controlled by MGM now.Jon Hertzberg said:8 MILLION WAYS TO DIE has been released in multiple countries. I have an Aussie release, which it turned out was 4x3 letterbox, so I re-bought the film via Second Sight, which is 16x9. There is at least one other release, an Eastern European country, I believe. Aussie has a much better cover (faithful to the original one-sheet artwork), however. Both of my discs are licensed from Fox, but there is a rights vacuum / mystery in the States. A friend tried to program a pristine 35mm print last year, which Sony held (Tri-Star released it theatrically in the U.S.; Columbia released it internationally). However, Sony claimed no theatrical rights. PSO, the production company is defunct; its head Mark Damon isn't sure who holds those rights here, either. Lionsgate has apparently licensed the film for television here, but they also claim no theatrical rights. So, something similar to the SORCERER fiasco, it seems. In other words, gobble up one of those foreign-issue DVDs of 8 MILLION WAYS--PAL be damned--because, it would seem, no domestic DVD or Blu-ray is coming soon. I would, however, love to eat those words.
