Kino-Lorber Insider Announcement Thread (Read Guidelines Post #3) (5 Viewers)

We will also have a KLSC 5th Anniversary Sale in July. The Whole klstudioclassics.com website on sale.

Thanks for the heads up! July is also (I believe) the semi annual B&N Criterion sale. Between KL and the B&N sale, I'll need to scrape up some money fast! Anyone want to buy a slightly used black cat?

Not sure why you needed to include a large poster?

Because it is a great poster that promotes the release...whenever that is happening.

Okay, it will also be the key art for our BD/DVD release.

Phobia is coming out soon. Not sure why you needed to include a large poster?

I agree. I wish people (except for the Kino Insider) would refrain from posting pictures in this thread because they detract and get mistaken for official Kino announcements.

I agree. I wish people (except for the Kino Insider) would refrain from posting pictures in this thread because they detract and get mistaken for official Kino announcements.

I could understand that if the image I posted was not relevant. Kino had already announced they were releasing Phobia, I thought it already had a release date but when I looked it seemed I was mistaken. For some reason I thought it was coming out in the summer. Kino announces so many titles I sometimes lose track of the dates things are coming out. Typically, I like to slot new releases into what I am watching any given month so, I wanted to do a month where I featured Huston and I wanted to time that to whatever month Phobia is coming out.

I posted the image of the poster because I like the poster and I am a big fan of John Huston. This is a Huston film I have never seen. Plus because it is not one of the much talked about Huston pictures I thought including the image would make it easier for people to know what film I was asking about. I have no idea how an image detracts from what is going on in the thread.

I mean posting here allows us the options to include images or videos as well as text. Personally, I like it when people include these things as it adds to the post and makes it more interesting. I don't really understand how it confuses people because it is clearly right there on the screen who is posting it and it does not say "Kino Lorber Insider" next to my posts. Plus above the image is clearly the question about when it is coming out...why would the Kino Insider ask this question?

I prefer this thread is used as an announcement thread as well. I think all the postings asking if some title that has not been announced is coming from Kino or if Kino can get a certain title belong in a different thread. A Kino wish list thread or something. It did not seem out of line to me though to ask about a release date for an already announced title. Nor did it seem confusing.

I would like it if people posted images of titles that are coming from Kino because when I open this thread I immediately see the image and think "Oh, that's coming from Kino! Wonderful!"

If people are wish listing in this thread that, in my opinion, gets confusing. It would be great if there were two Kino threads, one where the Insider is making announcements of things they are releasing/discussing releases and one where people post all their questions about what Kino might be able to acquire for future releases.

What can you do though? Probably the number one thing people want to ask is if a certain title they are longing for is going to get a release. Any time a release is announced there generally follows "Will Kino also release _____?"

I think that should be given another thread so this thread can focus on announced titles and questions, comments, images, videos related to the titles Kino has actually released or is releasing. However, I am just a bystander here.

That's my two cents and as a bonus I will not post an image in this thread again. Over and out.

There is another Kino thread for discussion or anything else related to Kino so people just need to use it.

So if I want to order this should I wait a month to place my order to get the corrected copy?

We're not shipping anymore copies, you'll get the fixed one a month or so from now if you buy it directly from us, otherwise we cannot guarantee it.

Dear KL Insider, any chance of TIDAL WAVE (1975, New World/Roger Corman) starring Lorne Greene, and/or its original 1973 Japanese version (without Lorne Greene) coming from Kino Lorber in the future?
If not, would you have any idea who holds rights?

I know which is why I'm asking for confirmation.

If we get the defective disc from another retailer (eg. amazon), do you send replacements internationally too?
