Sorry that there was no update last week--I'm in the process of moving from Seattle to Portland, OR, so I hope to update things by August 25th--sooner if possible. Here are some dates to tide you over: Revised Release Dates 22-Aug-06Watkins, Peter1965The War Game / CullodenProject X/New...
July 28th Update has been posted. 29 new listings 4 revised release dates Also, based upon suggestions from several readers, I have reformatted List A so it more closely resembles the list as Donald Brown used to maintain it (e.g., Region 1 releases are no longer listed separately from...
July 20th update is complete. 50 (count 'em) new listings: 19-Jul-06 Otelo / Othello(Welles, Orson/1952/Manga Films/R2 PAL Spain) 07-Aug-06 Billy the Kid and the Green Baize Vampire (Clarke, Alan/1985/Network/R2 PAL UK) 26-Aug-06 Dickens Before Sound (Various/NA/bfi/R2 PAL UK)...
Criterion has only hinted that it's coming this fall. Since the September releases are set, we're looking at either October or November for Véronique. Expect Criterion to announce their October lineup within the next couple of weeks
Update 14 July: Since this was another light week for new DVD announcements (at least the ones I care about), I will only update the main list this week. Here are the 19 new releases added this week: 02-Aug-06TwentyNine Palms (Bruno Dumont/1999/MRA/R4 PAL Australia) 08-Aug-06Brick...
Greetings. July 7th updates are posted. 26 new listings 3 revised release dates Again, very little on the R1 front (except maybe a third Svankmajer shorts collection and the Aussie western, The Proposition). There is some more good upcoming stuff Down Under: Branagh's Henry V...
Lists have been updated as of July 1st. 30 new listings. Not much of note this week in Region 1 but, over in the UK, three new Buñuel releases are in the works: The Great Madcap / El Gran Calavera (1949) [? / R2 PAL UK] 23-Oct-2006 Ascent To Heaven (Mexican Bus Ride) / Subida al cielo...
June 23 updates are now complete: 36 new listings 4 updated release dates Some interesting additions to check out: 4 great films by Max Ophüls in the UK Antonioni's The Red Desert in Australia The Béla Tarr holy grail, Sátántangó from Facets (also expected from Artificial Eye in the...
June 16th Updates have been posted. 29 new entries 5 Revised release dates. Grey Gardens 2-disc SE, which I listed last week as an August 22nd release (based on info at Movies Unlimited), has been changed back to TBA since that date now seems unlikely and hasn't been confirmed by...
Very exciting news. Since this documentary is AWOL in the Apocalypse Now: The Complete Dossier specs, the Region 2 may be the only way to own it on DVD. But it also begs the question: why is Metrodome able to license it in the UK if Coppola is (presumably) able to block Paramount from releasing...
June 2nd Update posted: New formatting of List A to improve readability. 37 new listings added. 8 revised release dates. Thanks for your help. Brian filmfansea Seattle
I think I'm finally finished tweaking the layout of the lists. All three are updated through May 21st. From here on out, I'll update weekly (probably on the weekend). Please keep the information, corrections, and suggestions coming. Brian aka: filmfansea

The idea for this list was originally conceived by the polymath Acquarello, who maintained it for a period of years and then passed it on to the eagle-eyed Donald Brown, who--after several more years--has passed it on to me.
The list is confined to upcoming DVD releases of Classic, Foreign...
