Transcript

What's going on. Everybody looks like we already got a super active chat even before we're live. That's awesome to see. We're here with Ice, who usually is in the chat every week. Ice. Good to have everybody see your face for the first time. How are we doing. I'm doing good. Thanks for having me, and hello everybody to the chat. Ice is here because it is the second Tuesday of the month, which means we're gonna be going over the premiums announcements, and there's quite a few this month.

But Ice is a collector of some of these premiums. Could you share some of your favorite brands, maybe some of the releases that they've put out that you've loved and a little while on the show, we might get to see some of these, unless you want to show them off now. Yeah. So, I think even before I actually got into boutique labels, I started off for premiums, and I think my first premium was a Korean play an archive where I saw The Devil back in like twenty twelve, I believe nice,

and from there it just I dove into it hard. Usually I import from Korea since we shared the same region, and that was before I had my region three player, and China's a little more difficult to get into. Yeah, but yeah, and Korea also is like it's more easy to import. A lot of sites will ship to the US. Yeah, that's certainly true the Chinese sides. First off, they're a little more difficult to break into. On the shipping side, some of them they are not even willing

to try to ship over here. But then you get to some of the others where it is just an arm and a leg and what is already an expensive product becomes an exorbitantly expensive product. But some of these some of these companies, they are all in on packaging of these discs, So basically they'll get a studio disc and dress it up in the best possible packaging ever.

And it's a different sort of thing to collect. But there are a lot of people that love premiums, which is why we started sharing the announcements. So we're gonna get into that pretty deep tonight. First off, Ice has a YouTube channel everybody should subscribe to that. The link is in the description below. He is, as far as I'm aware, trying to put out more stuff in the coming months, and he's he's pretty great at what he does, make sure you give him a follow ice you want to tell him

how you originally got into movies. I guess I've gotten some movies thanks to my uncle, very heavy eighties Guy out of eighty music and like eighties cinema. I dove into foreign mostly Asian movies like Flip because of my love for anime growing up as a kid, mostly anime cartoons and things like that, So transitioning to like live action movies was pretty easy. Plus early early anime subtitles. Not a lot of doves out there, and that's that's pretty much

it. Love got America and Asia covered. I really need to work on stuff like from Italy and France. There's a lot to dive into there, and a lot of a lot of pretty great French announcements coming out lately. So the pickens are not slim for any of us. Let's say I had some friends. We got Ragnar back again as usual, Josephine, Hello, recent watches Pearl? Nice? Nice? Just watched that recently myself? A song of two humans and a lemon drop kid. Let's see currently reading this

year will be different collection to Christmas stories? Nice? Uh, Let's see who else? Dude, McMahon didn't realize we could chat before the stream started. Yes, what's going on, Terry, looks like you made it back in time, Hey, Antoine, and Christopher is here from Facebook says I want to hit Powerballers. Too much good stuff to buy. Christopher and I we were talking earlier about the VIM vendor set that is hitting the shores in the US. Suddenly Orbit got some of those in today, and it looks

like they're going to be arriving at Grindhouse as well. And that set, man is ludicrous. It's almost three hundred bucks at Orbit, but I think Grindhouse had it for about thirty bucks cheaper. Well released, that'd be a fi No. That was Herzone Artificial Eye. I think Sister Agatha is back, Griff. Hello, my friend Stephen Billings watching some Italian films that were just announced. Very nice. Hello, by the way, may as well

just spill the beans now to get everybody excited. Stephen Billings from Chasing Labels is gonna be live with us next Thursday, because next Thursday is gonna be the day that we can all start voting on the Shelf Shock Rewind Awards. So make sure you come back next week to hang out with me and Steven and we're gonna break down all of the nominees and all of the categories and talk about how much it has given us anxiety to look at all of these

categories because there are some tough choices this time. Have you have you looked at other nominations and thought, oh, should I put that on my list? Uh? Yeah, There's a few different ways, like there's a few that I just plane don't have and seeing how many people nominated them and said, you know, I probably should have got that. And then the other thing is there's a few that I either haven't haven't popped in yet or I just didn't realize that it was such a high quality release, and uh yeah,

certainly ones that I overlooked. But it's been crazy. It's been nice to see the wide breadth of everybody's taste and just curious to see what the community votes on. So starting next Thursday, we'll see votes start pouring in. Hopefully what's going on? Cam and Ken Cam says Grindhouse has that VIM vendor set for two sixty. It's not terrible, but could could still be better. How many film stills I have? Oh gosh, I think it

was like twenty plus. It might have even been more. Let me see it was uh yeah, it was something crazy because it was I think overseas even it was going for like two hundred and fifty pounds. I mean two success seem that bad? No, it's uh oh jeez. This authoritative twenty two disc collection encompasses the fifty year career of the award winning filmmaker. Alongside his masterpieces Paris, Texas and Wings of Desire, the collection features his electrifying

debut and blah blah blah blah. Let's see. Oh, there's no number about how many films huh seven short films over fifty special features. So there is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven twelve, like fifteen or sixteen films plus a bunch of shorts. That's that's quite a bit. I just hope the build quality is up to all those desk yeah, and the box and everything.

It looks great. Griff, my friend. Of course, we're going to be going over the Vinegar Syndrome banner announcement today, and so that should be exciting. Sweet. Let's just start diving in then, because there is a lot of great stuff that we get to talk about this week. It seemed like a lot of people were expecting this week to be pretty slow with what we got to talk about last week, but that's never the case. It seems like we're we're in the spoils of Riches type of period for boutique

labels, so we're gonna dive in first with Martin. Second Site has announced that on February twenty seventh, we are getting Martin on four K. This is, of course the George a Romero Vampire flick that we have been clamoring for in the States for a long time, and we're still gonna be waiting because this is only coming in the UK. This is getting a new four K scan and restoration from the thirty five millimeter dupe negative, supervised and approved

by the DP. Michael Gordick. We're gonna get both four K and blu ray discs with bonus features, and then the four K gets HDR ten. There's the audio commentary with George a Romero, John Amplus and Tom Savigni on it. We got another audio commentary from back in the day with George and

Tom and Richard Rubinstein, Michael Gordick and Donald Rubinstein. There's a new audio commentary by Travis Crawford, another new commentary by Kat Ellinger, and and then a new feature length documentary that includes a location tour, and that one Seven Films actually got to go over that tour with them and do a lot of the featurette with them. David Gregory is the one that directs a lot of

those featurettes, and it looks like it's gonna be pretty great. Then we got a new interview with the composer Donald Rubins seen on this short film. All kinds of stuff. This just looks ridiculous. And then of course a one hundred and eight page book with new essays by a whole bunch of people including Travis Crawford, Heather Draane, kat Ellinger, Andrew Graves, Alexander Heller,

Nicholas Steven Thrower and more. But then on top of that, they even throw in the original soundtrack CD because it's Second Sight and they just want to give us everything. What do you think, Martin Ice, I unfortunately have never seen it, but I know I held Second Sight limited editions in

my hand and they're always like top quality. Also another thing, when posting this to one of my groups, I was at first concerned because I know some labels the four K disc just have the main feature and no special features, unlike dolls. This one does have special features on the four K disc,

right, I believe so. Yeah, so it's even if you if you don't have a origisally player for the blue ray, feel like it's worth it just to get it for the four K. Yeah, you may not be able to have all of the special features, but it looks like it's got at least some of them. And the big thing. A lot of second sites limited editions have been very expensive, like donn of the Dead that they did from George A. Romero. The limited because it was so many

discs, was like one hundred and ten dollars. This one is fifty two if you pre order it from Diabolic right now, which is surprisingly reasonable for this film. I think with how long it's been to come out, I honestly think that's a pretty decent price. Before we move on, what is your think the likelihood of a region a release? That depends. I think if we see a continuation of this amount of sales in physical media in the US for a while, they might finally come around and understand how much money

they could make. But in the meantime, it worries me that we probably will not, because I mean, we still don't have Donnov The Dead, and you would think that by now we would have got that one. There's no news of the Hitcher coming here. There's so many things that are just out of reach. But thankfully for those of us that do the importing game, at least we got a chance at them. But yeah, if you want this one, this is available to pre order from orbit from Diabolic if

you're in the States. You can't get it directly from Second Sight because that's written into their agreement, of course. But yeah, at least this one is out there and we're gonna be able to get it. Honestly, Cam is talking about he says, the director's cut isn't on there. Unfortunately. I don't think that's even something to point out. It's not something that any of us have had access to. I don't even know that it has been screened in like decades. For a very long time, it was considered lost

for quite some time. So I don't think there's any reason to even look at it and feel bad that we don't have it. We were never going to have that. It's not. It was just an unreasonable request, to be honest. Griff is asking is this one confirmed to be Region B only? A. Technically no, but that's only because we're not holding the disc.

But second site has locked everything that has been advertised as Region B only, So yes, everything is going to be Region B. I guarantee other than the four K obviously, And usually when I see people like disappoint our playing, I usually just say, you know what, save a little bit of money that you spend on Blu rays a month and just get yourself a

region free player and hope the world to you. Yeah, and if you really want to cut down on the cost, you can even save up and get a Region B player only that only plays Region B Blu rays and hook that up to another input on your TV and you'll be good. Terry says, haven't seen Martin since VHS. I suspect that it will have aged nicely. I haven't seen it since oh gosh, it's probably been about ten or so years. I had the old DVD of it and it was decent looking

on the DVD. But I can't wait to see this on four K. It's going to be beautiful, all right, moving them right along. Keno gave us some release details for Marathon Man on four K they announced this, oh gosh, probably midsummer ish now at this point, we are getting this on February twenty eighth, and this is going to have a new audio commentary by Steve Mitchell and Nathaniel Thompson. And that is all of the new features. We are going to get some of the old stuff. There's the Magic

of Hollywood feature at the original making of Marathon Man. There is a Remembering marathon Man featurette, some rehearsal footage, ten TV spots, and a trailer. But just classic Keno four K here coming in with a great title. What about Dustin Hoffman? Are you a Dustin Hoffman fan? I do, But you know, I visited this movie because, you know, a lot of people praise it, and when I saw it, like years ago, I just thought it was fine. What do you think about this movie?

Yeah, Marathon Man has never been at the top of my list. I think it's a decent Dustin Hoffman, but it's not the Dustin Hoffman that I grew up loving. I just didn't come up with this side of him. But It's not bad. It's a well made movie for sure, It's just not one of my favorites. And o'liary plays a great villain in it, especially with that dentistry scene. Oh yeah, Roy Scheider real great in it. Two. This was only to highlight the fact that Orbit DVD started pre

orders and the big deal was Martin. So this is the first film that they've offered for pre order, and they lay out all the details on how you can do that. They did want to point out that if you order other titles with Martin, they will not ship until everything is in stock, so keep that in mind if you go to Orbit. Coming in twenty twenty

three from Keno, we're getting the Carpetbaggers from nineteen sixty four. This is from a new four K scan of the thirty five and I believe Imprints released excuse me release this in Australia. Let me verify, but yeah, I think that just came out fairly recently. Yes, Carpetbaggers came out. This was August of twenty twenty. Gosh, that was Imprint release number nine and now we're up to like two hundred and nine. Yeah, yeah, it's

Paramount. It's a decent looking scan. It's Panavision Technicolor title. I'm not a huge fan of the movie, but it's a it's a decent one. What is this supposed to be a drama? Yeah, it's it's a very nineteen sixty four drama. It's your classic type of storyline. And this actually

summed it up pretty well. I just saw it right here. It says Harold Robbins bestseller about thirties Hollywood comes to the screen and a torrent of frank, controversial and for the time sensational scenes that helped break the production code. It's it's a very very Hollywood movie. And for some people that's a great thing. But for a lot of people, they're not huge on watching Hollywood basically make love to themselves. So yeah, it's that type of film.

Next up, Will Penny from nineteen sixty eight is coming from Keno in twenty twenty three. This is another Charlton Heston and they are just going all in on him and Bronson and uh yeah, just adding to the stack. This is with Donald Pleasance though. That's a cool one. I've never seen this one, have you, No? But I have seen recently a Heston movie Touch of Evil because for November. Yeah, it was interesting seeing him play a Mexican and I haven't really seen Orson Wells in his later years, so

that was interesting to see. Also, yeah, that's a good movie. Then we got some shout Factory titles. These had leaked last week and they finally got officially announced. We are getting Dragon Heart on four K. This is the Dennis Quaid and Sean Connery playing the voice of a dragon film. This one is not coming to screen Factory or shout select or anything. It's just gonna be a shout Factory title, which is kind of odd for a title like this. I'm curious how this one's gonna look in four K because

obviously this had some really shoddy CGI that a lot of people hated. This is a not a great movie, but a movie that a lot of people grew up with. Came out in the late nineties. Did you ever see Dragon Heart bits and pieces? I just used to remember that Quaid and the Connery they would scam people by either dragon attacking villages and stuff. Am I correct? And yep, yep, okay, Yeah, Sean Connery is odd as the voice of a dragon, but it's a it's not terrible. Next

up a really great film. The Shout Factory is putting The Magnificent Seven out on four K for Shout Select, and this one is coming with a slipcover. And then of course they have their poster for their collector's editions. They are kind of doing the whole hey, we're gonna announce the extras later sort of thing for this. I'm curious to see what they're gonna be able to

get. Obviously, this has a ridiculously great cast. You got Steve McQueen, you got Charles Bronson, James Coburn, Egli Wallack, Robert Vaughn, Yule Brynner, of course, and then all directed by John Sturgis. But this is clearly a classic and one that a lot of us have ended up seeing at some point. This is from nineteen sixty. Not to mention, this inspired a bunch of other films. You know, we got a lot of people will see the Seven Samurai in this, they will see all kinds

of other films that took a lot of inspiration from this film. Have you seen the original Magnificent Seven before? Yes, I have. I haven't picked up any Shout four k's. How are they on that front, hit or miss. It depends on who is supplying the scan because Shout Factory they don't do many of their own restorations. So if it's coming from Sony, it's usually quite good. If it's coming from MGM, it has been good this last year. But this one, I imagine will probably be treated with the

utmost respect. But then you have other situations. For example, the gosh, what did they just put out the the war film? Somebody in the chattel helped me out. They put out something that it just looks awful because there's all kinds of DNR. But again, no, the Deer Hunter actually looks pretty good. Shout Factory is one of those titles that people love to just absolutely shit on for transfers and for quality control, but shout Factory is

not in charge of the transfers. Shout Factory is just putting out stuff that has been given to them. So unfortunately, this is not something that you can blame Shout Factory on. For most of these releases, Magnificent seven will probably be a great one, but I'm curious to see reviews on this one first. At least, speaking of four K, they are releasing a double feature of four K, and I believe this is their first double feature on

four K of the original Slumber Party Massacre and Slumber Party Massacre two. Now, the hard thing here for a lot of people is that this does not have the third film. Now what was that? Sorry? Uh? This? Yeah, I got a hair on my lip. This one does not have the third film because supposedly the rights have recently changed and that Blu ray double feature of part two and three will likely be you know, still something

people are you know seeking for quite some time. That one has been very expensive on the secondhand market because it sold out so quickly that that title has sold for over like three hundred dollars multiple times on eBay. I don't even understand why the third one is a terrible, terrible movie. I was gonna say. Plus, don't other companies release later franchise movies all the time, Like Vinegar Sydrome. Oh, they had like what Birds what two or three

or whatever? Yep? And then Severne has what was it The Evil Dead or something? Yep, Evil Dead Vibe. Yeah. So I'm pretty sure somebody will down and pick up the third one and do a nice release of it. I think the worry was that I believe it was tied to the Corman titles for some time, and Shout Factory is supposed to own all of the Roger Corman estate titles, so that everybody just assumed that it would be

a part of that. But it appears that it's separated. The other big thing with this is it is not a collector's edition, so it looks like it will not have a slipcover. All kinds of fanboys of slipcovers pissed off about that. But the cool thing if you pre order this from Shout Factory, you get a rolled poster from the theatrical poster for both films, and that second film, the poster is one that is very iconic with that drill guitar and everything, So that's not a terrible deal. I mean, that's

a pretty sweet poster to have for sure. And it does appear that there are no new features on this. By the way, one show usually does the four K upgrade? Do they usually add the blurry because I see the blurray is added to this for most of them so far. They have for something like The Evil Dead the remake, they did not include it, but that was because Sony didn't give them the rights for that one. There's a couple more maybe that they didn't include it, but it seems like most of

the time they are including it. Thankfully. A few more left from Shout Factory. We are getting Iron Monkey from nineteen ninety three. This is a un Yun Wu Ping film with who's in this Donnie Yen. That's right.

This martial arts classic is set against the end of the king dynasty and tells the tale of a chivalrous robber Iron Monkey, who robs the rich and gives to the poor in Xijiang Province. Extras in progress and we'll be announced at a later date again, And this is the problem is a lot of these films have come out in Region B or they're coming out Region B around the

same time. And when you don't announce the extras at the same time, people can't make up their their their mind about if they're going to want to, you know, pre order from Region B or Region A or make a choice on. That makes it difficult for people that are trying to collect these. So I've just seen a postocusly complaining about the eighty eight films still not revealing the details of the inlant of duty. All right, yeah, so

yeah, but go ahead. I was gonna talk about the release that I was concerned since they didn't release any details at first, that this was going to be the Mirrormax cut. The Mirrormax cut will be missing five minutes, but on the website they listed a ninety, so that would be the one that aged you guy. Oh good. I did not even look into that. That's good to know. Yeah, but if anybody's interested, I highly recommend it. Nice fighting at the end where they fight on top of wooden

post because the floor is on fire. Nice. Yeah. How about this next one in February, We're getting zoo Warriors from the Magic Mountain. Have you seen this one? Yes? This one I would try before you buy. Uh. The martial arts is few and far between. It's more wire fighting and more fantasy with magical stuff. This one has you starring you Vow directed by Soe Hart. He actually appears towards the end as a random soldier,

and Samuel has some small parts in the movie too. When reading up on this, apparently this inspired Big Trabolo China, I believe, Yeah, And I could kind of see with all the magical stuff that's in there, but this one definitely try before you randomly blind by it right right, and then once again, of course, extras in progressed and announced at a later date. The big surprise this month, we are getting Bubba Ho Tep on four K on February seventh. This is coming with new features and that has

been confirmed by Don Coscarelli himself. They are giving a package deal on this, and this has confused some people. So this release is coming as a collector's edition and the four K by itself will have a slipcover. It will just be of the theatrical poster, and if you want, you can upgrade to this bundle that also has this separate slipcover and also a second poster.

They're also offering a bundle that includes these five pins from Gutter Garbs. So no matter what you get, if you get this film within three months of it coming out, you were guaranteed to slipcover. A lot of people up in arms because they thought they were starting to charge for a slipcover for screen factory, and that's not the case. You're just getting a bonus one with a bonus poster if you spend a couple bucks More. That's it, Bubba Ho Tep. Have you seen Bubba Ho Tep before? I have not.

I'm probably gonna piss some people off. I think you made a wise choice. Really. Yeah, I don't love this one. In fact, I think this is a rather boring film. I think the third act can it pays off a little bit at the end, But yeah, I do not love Bubba Ho Tep. This with the cast they got and with the director that they have, Yeah, I feel like that wasted a lot. Sadly, Josephines added out, have a good night, have a good night? Was it? Was there supposed to be a sequel with a month Uh,

some other villain. Uh, there's been some stuff hinted at, and I think, if I remember right, Bubba Ho Tep has a couple comics written and one of them included a mummy or something like that, and they were they were considering releasing an entire film like that as well. But yeah, that's uh. Bruce Campbell Don Coscarelli directed February fourteenth, Shout Factories, also giving a shepherd the story of a hero dog. Uh. This is a

like Nazi and Jewish family tear jerking film. Basically, it looks like never seen it, of course, No, I want to see the cover. Got a really strong boy in the strike Lajamo's vibe. Oh yeah, yeah. They they they tend to put out one of these every like two or three months, it seems like. Then, to go with the previous two announced steel books, we are getting four K steel books for the Box Trolls and a standard of that of the Box Trolls, and then one of Kubo

and the Two Strings and a standard. Both of those are coming in four K U. There are no new features on either of these, but they are a brand new four K restoration with Dolby at most. I love the art they did on these steel books. I really wish we got a poster with them. I'm also happy that Shall has been supporting animation with the like

of releases and then Gee Kids and stuff. Yeah, and there's so much more other than Disney, like where Cartoon Saloon and in some places, like there's a studio called Light Chaser Studios in China that have been released with some nice animation stuff. So it's nice to see them get love. Yeah, and these four films especially, they seem to make a pretty big splash in

the US, So I'm glad they're getting some tension and focus. Another four K title coming from Keno on February twenty first, or no, I apologize this one is not in four K. This is just a blu Ray The Hunter from nineteen eighty with Steve McQueen. This gets a new audio commentary with Steve Mitchell and Nathaniel Thompson. And this is one of the films that they

were able to actually license reversible cover art. And it looks like the reversible cover art is fully different than the slipcover on this one, which is really nice. You get three different art options. But yeah, this is the last film of Steve McQueen, and I remember enjoying this one. I've not seen it in a long time, but this one's from nineteen eighty. Have you seen many Steve McQueen films? Not many, just like you know Magnificent

seven. Well The Sting was he in The Sting? I believe? So yeah, yeah, I've seen I definitely meet the Dovin and you said this was his last movie. Yep, So that's a nice auditie to pick it up to see for sure. Moving right along, we are, Oh, I put out an interview with Justin lit Liberty of OCN and Vine or Syndrome. Hope you give it a listen. It's a pretty fun when we go into the sit and sound list and all of the December releases from the partners,

and yeah, good conversation. Those your interviews and streams really helped to travel one of our rid the trains and who you are? Good, good, glad to hear it. Sardis is here. What's going on? Sardis Secret of the Incas is coming from Keno Lobra on February twenty eighth. This gets a new audio commentary by Toby Rohn and this one is coming with the

original art here. I believe this one was also released previously by Imprint, and it's this is gonna be the exact same scan and essentially if you've got that other one, you probably will not need this disc. But Keino just kind of quietly helping us out get those paramount titles here. Yeah, and I've seen a lot of more like was it Keynole releasing the Imprint stuff too?

So yeah, going on import destroy of walle Yeah, and this one is supposedly the one that was the direct inspiration for the Indiana Jones series. So a lot of people are waiting to see it primarily for that. Have you checked out the new trailer? Yeah? I did everything, but some of the CGI was pretty damn impressive. What do you think, I haven't seen it yet. There there's a couple of really great scenes. There's one in particular where Harrison Ford is deaged and it looks remarkable. It looks like

nineteen eighty three Harrison Ford again. And there's one scene that is you can tell like they couldn't quite get there with the art that they wanted, so they intentionally made it blurry and it is awful. But some of the other stuff, it's pretty damn impressive looking lower. The reason I haven't seen as like some of the rumors about the script that people have been putting out. This definitely gives me big hesitation. Yep, Yeah, I get that.

The same thing happened with the Halloween Ends. Basically that entire script league before it aired at all, and it was pretty spot on. Eric's here, what's going on? Eric? Hello? Moving on to a Radiance announcement, they are putting out a box set called Comedia Italiana. This is three films by Dino REESI. This has The Widower, The Showman and The easy Life.

The easy Life I believe had a Criterion release previously, but none of these have been released in the UK, and two of these are coming out for the first time on Blu ray anywhere, and they're supposed to be pretty

damn good from what I've heard. I've still not seen The Easy Life, but yeah, they are just announcing all kinds of stuff from Udience, and I just gotta love the packaging that they choose, Like that's supposed to be a J card, right, Yeah, it's a They're calling it an obi strip, so basically when you get it, you could just take it off and be done with it. Yeah, And I just like esthetically how it looks, and it's different from whatever Bouts is doing, so I like how

they really pay attention. Yeah, fran Is is definitely in this for the right reasons. You can tell he's got his finger on the pulse of collectors for sure. It's going on Silent Mandible a few more to talk about with some announcements. Radiance also announced that Maywoo Films will be coming on as a partner label for them, and this is great because This release was the first

from them which was man marked for death twenty years later. And when I announced this, all kinds of people in the States wanted it, but they were not shipping it anywhere in the States, so it was damn near impossible to get. And now that Radiance is going to be selling it, everybody's gonna give chance to be able to get it in the US, which means it'll probably start showing up at Orbit and Diabolic here soon when it fully comes

out through Radiance, which should be fairly quickly. I assume. Yeah, it's just nice to pop up smaller labels and give them more eyes exactly. And they made it sound like they have a few more titles coming in twenty twenty three and then a lot more coming after that, which is great to hear. We got some special features announced for the UK release of Welcome to the Dollhouse from Radiance. This is going to have an HD digital transfer of

the film, interviews with Todd Salons and Heather Modarazzo. Both of those are brand new from twenty twenty two. There is a visual essay by Hannah Strong on the film and it's placed within Salon's work one that I'm excited about. There's an audio commentary by Bja and Harmony Colangelo of the This Ends It prom podcast, great podcast. If you've never listened to it, go give it

a listen. It is genuinely, genuinely, really well made. Then of course, there is a limited edition booklet with new writing on the film by as Hamah and Molly Lambert, with some archival writing by Salons and Julian Murfett and xtraps from Sorry extracts from contemporary writing on the film. This is just a wonderful, stacked release. It looks like can't wait to get my hands on their first release, which we got less than a month now until that

comes out. This one I wanted to share just in case people had not gotten a chance to see this. And this is a pretty big deal. Waxwork Records, who does a lot of soundtrack vinyl releases, They are announcing that their Waxwork Record subscription is coming back and for the next week they are revealing a new soundtrack title every day that is included in those twenty twenty three subscriptions. First up is the George A. Romero Donna the Dead Original Theatrical

Library soundtrack, which will be three LPs. It will have the complete library ques from the nineteen seventy eight theatrical release of Down of the Dead, and then today they announced the soundtrack for The Funhouse will also be included. If you do go in there and get a subscription, you generally will get a shirt I believe, a hoodie, enamel pin, a few other things like a exclusive slip matt and oh, look at that, it's all down here

at the bottom. I should look at my picture here, T shirt, beanie, hoodie, slip matt, fifteen month calendar, and then you get a ten percent discount on all items throughout the entire year. It is a pretty great deal. I was a subscriber the last time that they did it, and yeah, they do incredible work. I don't even know are you a vinyl collector at all? If I ever lived in the house, I

would definitely get the vinyl. Not only the colored variants are very appealing, but yeah, some of the arwork that they choose for these vinyls, between wax to deaf olds to mundo are pretty incredible. They just take up so much damn space. Yeah, completely understandable. And plug do you have like a nice vinyl player not anymore. I had one and it bit the dust

a while ago. I'm trying to get something new here, but now, basically because recently we decided we were going to be moving, I said it would be pretty dumb to get one now, and may as well just wait till we get the new place and then try to find a better one. Yeah, we got an announcement from Turbine in Germany that we are getting the fortieth anniversary collection of night Writer. Have you ever been a night Writer fan? No, it was just a little bit before my time. But you

have fand the kid. No. I cannot stand David Hasselhoff, but for those that can, this is a pretty sweet looking release. We got twenty Blu ray discs and it does have TV films of night Rider two thousand, night Rider twenty ten, and then the entire series Team night Rider. This is limited to three thy, nine hundred and thirty nine pieces because Germany.

Of course, this is probably going to be available in small quantities from someplace like Orbit or Diabolic, But I would not imagine that we're gonna get too too many of these in the States. So if you really want it, you're probably gonna have to go really seek this out. So this is just

off their site, not available for Amazon Germany. Well, I imagine with three almost four thousand pieces, there's probably gonna be a few on there, but Turbine has been selling out of their stuff pretty quickly lately, so that one's tough. We got some Morener Archive announcements today. We're getting Rancho Notorious from nineteen fifty two, Wife Versus Secretary from nineteen thirty six, Our Dancing Daughters from nineteen twenty eight, the Long Long Trailer with Lucy and Desi from

nineteen fifty four, and then Goodbye Mister Chips from nineteen thirty nine. All of these are coming out in January. We don't have any news about special features of these, but it's word Archive. Are you a Warner Archive person. I know you're into classic flakes. Yeah, I very much am. Some of the like the Paul Newman Harper movies, watching that with my uncle recently, a really fun, you know archive with the norm. I'm a big nor fan, so I'd definitely like to dive in. I saw the

first one was had de trick in there. Yeah, and I recently been wanting to get the Indicator set because I have never dived into our films. Yeah, there are a lot of them to dive into. That's that's the thing with an actress like that. It's kind of an intimidating filmography when you really look at it. I have not. I'm actually very curious about the long long trailer. This story says Nicki and and Tracy are going to be married. Nicki wants to save up money for a house, but Tracy dreams

of starting off with their own home on wheels. A trailer and I am I grew up with Lucy. It would be hilarious right now to say I love Lucy, but uh yeah, I would be remiss if I did not pick that up because I can't wait to see it. It is one that I just for a nostalgia piece. I have to have it. Did you see the Lucillum does the Amazon movie recently? No? Not not yet. I definitely wanted to. It looked very very well made. I haven't checked it out either. Well I did a I'm sorry, go ahead, No,

I was gonna say, I like you. I grew up with like TV Land and watching I Love Lucy and then you know, finding out her she helped with Star Trek, then make helped produce Star Trek Is Amazing Woman. Yeah, I Love Lucy was a big one for me, and then mister ed a handful of others from around that time. Yeah, those were on in our house all the time. I'm shocked. Go ahead. Oh for me, it was safer a son a lot. That a big one in the house. Oh yeah, I'm kind of shocked. We're done with

the regular announcements already. That was all anyway. It was a little bit of a slow week, but premiums will help pick it up real fast. But first, go ahead, no, no, no, I was gonna say, I know one of the posts had like twenty Digi Media books in it. Yeah, that's gonna be Pick a minute. First, we're gonna talk about this banner from Vinegars Room. We make this a little bit bigger

for everybody, So this says. Subscriber Week kicks off January first at twelve one pm Eastern, So you don't need to wake up in the middle of the night. You are going to see a celebration with ten years of In Your Syndrome with ten brand new releases during Subscriber Week. The first seven days of the new year will be your only chance to become a twenty twenty three

subscriber. Now a lot of people are reading that as there will be no more halfway subscriptions this year, which is I think they're gonna have it a lot less people be subscribers if they have to go the entire year. And unfortunately, when it's the first week of January, a lot of people are tapped out from November and December spending. So ye, that's very odd timing. Yeah, like Christmas gives and then you just got done with November or

Black Friday, so the becche house pretty dry it up. Yeah, unless you're somebody that gets a whole bunch of cash for Christmas, this could be a rough time to get a subscription. Then they said January first will bring four regular Vinegar Syndrome titles and one VSU, which I don't know anybody that

was expecting a VSU that quickly. That is something that came pretty out of nowhere, and there's some speculation already going around about what it could be, but I I don't know, Like this is a very They've only ever released VSUS during a sales. This is kind of unprecedented and for those that forgot

during their Black Friday sale, they did say some snippets about January. They said, we're going to be going back into Category three horror with a box set featuring a trio of gruesome shockers in addition to the UHD debut of an iconic eighties gore Fest, a whacked out regional creature film and one of the best exploitation horror hybrids to come out of the wilds of the Mexican genre cinema.

So we already know at least some hints about what is coming on January first, and then when they say subsequent days will bring two vsays, one Peakorama and two of something brand new, I am very curious about something brand new here? What is that? Exactly? No idea. I mean, they're certainly saying that it's going to be a release of some sorts. We are at four regular VSU or vs titles one VSU, so that's five.

Two vsays would be seven of Pia Karama's eight. And they said there's ten releases, So those two of something brand new is two releases of something anything you look you hoping will be in any one of these? Uh, I don't know. I would venture to guess. Of the two VSA's, I would not be surprised if one of them was another Santo title. It makes it. They made it sound like we're gonna be getting more of those, and the VSU is very curious. We know the four VSAs or not VSA.

Sorry, the four VS titles Peakurama. That's always a mixed bag, it depends, but two of something brand new is very curious. I just hope it's not something like a VHS release of a classic Vinegar Syndrome title or something. Just give us something good, is what I'm getting at. Do you think you will get any more partner labels in the new year? Uh? Maybe not in January, but throughout twenty twenty three. Yeah. Probably. It's happened every single year, so I would not be surprised at all.

But then they went on to say, plus, there will be a daily refreshed selection of ten items that are discounted to ten dollars each, which is crazy. And then there's also going to be new partner label releases as usual, new Vinegar Syndrome, more merch, and so much more crazy that ten dollars each. I'm guessing with how recently they've been helping their pro runs helped to alleviate old stock in the warehouse. Yep, I would agree with

you. Dead Sea Life says, I don't think I'm resubscribing. I just can't keep up with my watch pile, so I'm taking a step back.

I think a lot of people might be joining you there, and I feel like stuff doesn't sell out how I used to, so you could wait on something if you're interested in Well, they're selling two and a half times as much as they used to as well, so it's tough to sell out eight thousand when they used to sell three thousand, because the only thing in recent memory that probably sell in the first couple of days was like the Thriller Limited

Edition, if I'm correct, yep, that's I believe that's the only like this second title ever that has sold out in the first weekend. I think rad got very close, but it did have more titles that were put back into stock when they the site came back up to the sale. So Sarta says, why not just announce everything so we can get her wall it's ready. I would love that. I agree. I call the anticipation same. Terry says, I assume that something brand new wouldn't be more driving double features.

You know, that's a good point because they did say that they were going to be coming back from those, and they did do one this year, so I would imagine that there would be at least one or two next year. Camp I'm sorry, No, you're gonna say the four films releases just dead in the water. Oh the specials they did for their anniversary. Yeah, they did four of those box sets. They were five films five years and with this being ten years, I mean, it could be something

of that. When it says two of something brand new, maybe it's two ten film box sets of DVDs upgraded the blue rays. Who knows, it's possible. Cool. Yeah. Uh. Cam is saying, did Thriller have ten thousand? No, Thriller had twelve thousand, and it still sold out

in the first weekend. Eric says, I'll probably subscribe again, mainly for the partner label discount, and I gotta be honest, that is the most appealing part of it, because on every single partner label title, you're saving seven or eight dollars in getting them for sale price on day one, So yeah, it's absolutely worth it. If you're gonna be getting a lot of

partner labels. Somebody said, Hilton said, does the banner art suggest Texas Chainsaw Masker And they are alluding to this on the right side here, And some people have been speculating that we could get Texas Chainsaw Asker three from them. But then I've heard some other guesses. Ken Carlson in the chat said pieces earlier. Maybe I had somebody say motel Hell. Possibly there's quite a

few things that a chainsaw could represent. I mean it would follow well the shot upgrades they have been doing to four K. Yeah, the original TC though, that is coming out from uh what is their name? Dark Sky. They own all of the rights to Texas Chainsawmaskar in the US, so they have announced that that I think is coming around March. So yeah, it could be one of the other TCM titles. It could be just an art piece saying hey, we put out TCM two this last year. But

yeah, lots of exciting stuff to see coming out from them. And now let's dive into some premiums. You want to share a couple of your premium releases before we go in so people can see what they would be getting into. Sure, I'll share my I saw the Devil this so this was my first ever premium from Plain Archives. And this is super rare, now is it? I have keeping up as you guys don't know what premiums. Usually there will be three different UH releases of the movie, usually two slip cover

versions and then a regular steal book with a J card. So for this one, I went with a PET slip, which means like this one clear ClearCase, and I got number one two thousand copies of the PT slip. It comes with a booklet. Is UH has Korean and English in it too well? Like Ryan says, you could use Google to like readail off your phone, which is very helpful. And then this is the steel book. There's Troy Mins and lib and hum and two discs and it I have.

All these releases usually come with our cards. I don't know about you, but I'm not creative enough to know what to do with them. Not yet. Is that a film strip in there too? No? These are I you know, some people keep the Criterion stickers playing our craft has their own stickers. I just I feel like these are nice black and yeah, I've got I've got the one right over there. For uh movies training Busan. I keep it right on the top of it. Yeah. I had to

jump on that too because including the prequel was nice. So having both in one nice edition. This one. It's not tied to any big label out there. This was forgot. I even forgot the company I did this. But this was a wooden box release of send them a Parodies here. Wow. Uh. It has magnets to keep it closed and before Vindergar Syndrome. This is the limited edition, but they also did a separate plane release with just this. That's his side, which is the slip with the ammer in

there. Nice and I need to Frankenstein and buy the arrow and put the Arrow disc in to have like the perfect release. It's a digibook release. Jeez, that's a lot. Yeah, this was I think on release was like seventy dollars imported from Korea. Comes with a book and then our cards as usual that have no idea what to do with. I want to get one of the old photo albums to be able to store some of those in

the hard part is they're never like the exact same size. Yeah, I wish I could do some creative like people put them on the wall in a frame or something. Yeah, oh, I only have max Lab is a Chinese company and unlike other companies, you co order directly from the site and pre or you just gotta make sure you're there at the time that says, which usually like for me, two or three am in the morning. But I got the Inglorious Bastards from MANC Lab. Did you pick this one up?

I did not. I've seen it on sale a couple of times and thought about it, but I missed it. Yeah. What is your favorite Tarantino that has changed at the moment. It's probably Once upon a time in Hollywood. Before that, it was probably kill Bill. You know. I had to get this one because Inglorious Bastards for me is my favorite, especially like people win in theaters. And you wouldn't expect a subtitle from but mostly

it's mostly subtitle. It comes with a booklet mostly just pictures and then I'm pretty sure this steel book is has been released in other countries with this art, right yep? Yeah, well yeah, if you're into Manti Lab, you could just directly order from the site. Nice. I won't open these, but these are Noble Media's John Wick the Lenticular ones. Ah. Yeah, and what's crazy the the A lot of these Koreean companies, their lenticulars are very like deep I don't know if that's a good way to say it.

They are more lenticular than a lot of lenticulars that we get over here. They've they've got more action. Yeah, I feel like looking through my premium releases, I usually go for the lenticular. So they're definitely doing the right like you said, this is the second one purple, and this was before they done the I know recently they upgraded. And there's some four K steel books, but that was before. And then here's the third one with

beautiful art. What else, Oh, there's a movie distributor from Career called CG Entertainment. They release their own stuff like if it was like you know, Sony or anything, right, and they for their movies they do their version of a ditch book. So this is the movie Masquerade where Lee Young hun a great movie comes. This is a slipcover and this is the book

itself. Mhmm. And this this is the first print run. After this it's just a regular am ray with the movie and then inside you have the movie right here and this side is the booklet, which is different from like the ones in Germany. Yeah, just no text here, just pictures. But h it's nice quality. And then are you usually don't see it with a slipcover. Terry is asking you still have to wonder if Arrow will release

in Glorious Bastards or if the card was a tease. I have to think that they're gonna put it out now because around that time we also got Wolf of Wall Street getting teased, and now we got a four K that after the studio released it, so I wouldn't be surprised if Arro also didn't Glorious Bastards. Still, yeah, that one. I definitely waiting on Taka also

Frankenstein. I never Playing Archives. I was telling Ryan, uh, we could go that some cream if you Cream releases will have signatures thrown in with the director or actor and the obviously, because you know movies from Korea, they have access to get signatured pretty easily. And this movie will you be there. It's the Korean movie released by Playing Archives and luckily enough, because usually I'm not lucky to get a signature for any of these, but this

one I was lucky enough to get. I believe this is the main actor signature on one of the cards. Nice so these not all of the releases will have the signature. Random ones have them inserted either with the director or the actor. So you could be lucky enough to get one. That's pretty awesome. You still want me to go, Let's do announcements and then we'll go finish some of those after, no problem. Let's look at some premiums. So the first one, Kim Shee DVD is putting out Wheel of Fortune

and Fantasy from twenty twenty one. Soon this is going to have the full let's see. This has an unexpected love triangle, a failed seduction trap, and an encounter that results from a misunderstanding. Told in three movements to depict three female characters and trace the trajectories between their choices and regrets. And I'm not entirely sure what they mean by this episode is one hundred and twenty one minutes or the side video for sixty eight minutes? Do you have you seen

this one? Do you know the details on this? No? I just I'm familiar with the director, but I have no idea what would this be. But if I'm correct, I don't think this is This is probably the only English friendly release out there, yeah, being released currently. And that's the thing with a lot of imports is these form releases usually don't have English friendly Blu rays, except as you inform like these from Korea or China. You got Cam all excited, he says, looking through the plain Archive site,

and they have beautiful releases, they really do. Plain Archive is one of the better ones for sure. I think recently they just put out some nice shots of the Little Drummer Girl. Yeah. Next one coming on December twod in Germany from Excess in a media book with two cover variance, the film Versus by Riyo Kidimura. This is from two thousand. Here's one cover

and there is the second. And this will be four discs, two Blu rays, two DVDs, and it is limited to six hundred and sixty six copies of each, limited and embossed media book padded in a half slip case. And it will have a mini poster, artwork card and three photo cards with a twenty page booklet. Pretty good release there. How do you feel

about the artworks? I like this one quite a bit. I don't like how this one is very very cliche, but I also hate how a lot of these German companies when they advertise these, they use blurry ass photos of their pictures for some reason. I don't get it. Yeah, because usually when the artist sends in to proof, usually high scan rus exactly next up coming on December sixteenth from Excess in Germany with two different print covers on a

media book, we get The Riffs trilogy. You get The Rifts We Are Violenced, The Riffs to Escape from the Bronx and The Rifts three The Rats of Manhattan, which I believe The Rifts three is not actually a related film at all. They basically did one of their classic retitling something to make it fit, but this one decent art actually on both of them, I think. Yeah, I loved the heavy eighties to them. Yeah. Do you like it when our work is horizontal like that? If I'm gonna if I'm

gonna display it, Yes, like arrow. They did the run of the Vincent Price steal books where they were horizontal and they actually looked really well done. Let's see you got a comment from Dead Sea Live. I know you saw my complain about the four fly set. By the comments, I looked about fifty to fifty on the expectations thoughts. I was expecting a slip case based on picks and price. I gotta be honest, I was not. Most of Severn stuff, when it's one film is not in a hard box.

I think there's only one really like Blood for Dracula is one of maybe two releases that have been one film. But yeah, it's basically exactly what I expected. The price, again, I get it. It's an Argento film. It's a four K of something that I guarantee the rights were very

expensive. Yeah, I've seen a lot of people complain about the price, but this being one of the argentles that was so hard to get and only available in like Australia, I'm assuming just to get the film costs a bit of money for someone like Sovereign. Yeah, and it's the first genuine Blu Ray release and four K release obviously, but Blu Ray, especially anywhere in

the world, that's hard to argue with. Next up, we have in December from Wicked Vision Nightmares from nineteen eighty three, which Finder General from nineteen sixty eight, Cotton Comes to Harlem from nineteen seventy, then a Slaughter from nineteen seventy two, and the Cotton Comes to Harlem is going to be part of the Black Cinema Collection number two and unfortunately, as you can see again, these are all super super blurry. I don't know why they do this,

but lots of cover options coming. Here's a witch Finder general solid releases, Yeah, and especially the Knot release for con Comes to Harlem being out of print and I've been looking for recently, that's a nice option to get. Yeah, and the Wicked Vision is usually pretty good about their releases. Travis says. It's also three discs, one of which is a soundtrack. Small correction, I believe it's four discs. Actually a four k A soundtrack

and two Blu rays. So there are so many features on the four fly set that it is four discs. You'd think if it was a box este of the slip less people will complain. I do, but I also don't think it should be something that a lot of people get upset about. I mean again, it's an argentle title that's been wanted for like sixteen years, so it's not that expensive in my opinion, I gotta be honest. Next up coming on December ninth from Sinistrange Extreme in Germany with four different cover options

in media books. Arabian Adventure from nineteen seventy nine. That one. I think this one is my favorite of these covers on this Yes, amazing, love that artwork. And then this one's pretty good if you delve into any of these movies like that Sinbad and stuff like that. I've seen one or two of the Sindbad films. I've not seen all of them. I've never seen this one for sure, but this is this one looks pretty decent. And when I had posted this, I had to look up quite a bit

on this one because I couldn't find any good information on it. And it's got Christopher Lee. First of all, I mean that's that's a big deal. Yeah this is from yeah, nineteen seventy nine, So yeah, that's the height of a lot of Christopher Lee's stuff. This one's not terrible either. Next time, yes, coming on December ninth and Germany from Sinistrange Extreme we get to All a Good Night, the Christmas horror film. And I

am not real stoked on either of these art options. Don't love this one because it looks like all of the other media book covers that are like that. And then this one, the art is just off. Something about it just doesn't feel right to me. Could maybe the red hue on everybody. It could be, but even like the lady on the left, her face doesn't even look like a real face, like let me see if I can

zoom in here. I don't know. There's no tooth line, her eyes look a little too far apart, maybe big forehead, I don't know. It just looks like kind of rough art. Have you seen this movie? I have, and it's been a couple of years, but it's a pretty pretty decent movie. It's not super exciting like you would think for cover like this, but yeah, it's worth it. I think, in fact, just a straight up slasher. Think Keino put this out or they were a

partner label of somebody that did. Yeah, it's pretty straight up slasher. Let's see Dead Sea Life. I don't regret buying it, just wish it was more clear, maybe a pick of the actual product, not the mock up. Yeah, I get that a lot of places. Unfortunately they don't have it in hand when they do that, so the mockup is the best we can get. But yeah, I get that that is a month old. You already know what's coming. For that now coming in February from three

seven to five Media. In Germany, we get Curfew from eighty nine, a little movie called The Stuff Love that movie from nineteen eighty five, and then Top Squad from nineteen eighty eight with Jackie Are produced by Jackie Chan. We got Cynthia Rothrock in that one hilarious cover right here. Wonder what they're exaggerating there this one? Oh my god, what is up with this art? I think the previous art to this one is also really strange. It

is very strange. This whole announcement is just really weird art. I probably shouldn't show that for too long, all right, Yeah, but Top the Top Squad I know Germany, does I know? Slip got a couple of the Asian releases from Germany, so Top Scot will definitely try Cynthia. Who else was in it? Michelle Yo was in it? Not in this one? This is uh yeah, go to the other art since civil h Okay, Yeah, that one does look like something up my alley. Dead Sea

Life says Bras Squad. Uh, let's see. Coming on December sixteenth from Infinity Pictures. In Germany, we get Mirrors from two thousand and eight and Mother's Day from twenty ten, and these each have three different sets of artwork. Love that one, yeah, it's a great image in the back, and then Mother's Day and they are doing these as cover A limited to two hundred two pieces. Cover B is two twenty two, and then they call

it Cover W with leather, optic foil and embossing. That one's limited to three hundred and thirty three, and then on Mother's Day it's limited to two twenty two, one eleven and three thirty three. And there's actually like extras on here, there's booklets, it's there. They're doing a lot whoops, wrong button, doing a lot of pretty good stuff with these releases. But I haven't seen mirrors in a long time. I can't even remember if it's

decent or it's probably super cheesy that leather option. I'm just wondering what the price will be for that. Yeah. Absolutely. Next one up is coming on December sixth from Korean Film Archive Declaration of Fools from nineteen eighty three. This is going to be subtitled in English and Korean and Japanese. I believe this is the only English friendly release of this, and there is some more information, we got a booklet, we got postcards and a lot of really

good looking stuff in this forty eight page photo book. I just want to pump up Cream for markard for a second, because I don't know about their recent releases, but the past releases. I know people people complain about features not being subtitled, but these are Cream for markrav is one of the few companies who in the past releases have subtitled their express and I want to bring up The Housemaid. The Housemaid was released in criterions Martin Scorsese's first box I

believe. I don't own it and I don't know if it has any features on it, but Cream for Markive released it on Blu Ray and one of the big things is there's a commentary by Bong juw Ho which is subtitled and then another one on the park Chren Wook, which is also subtitled Wow. So yeah, I really love the stuff that Kritin foril Markrev has been doing. Interesting. Completely agree with Terry. He says, the stuff artwork reminds me of the Ghanian movie posters that have been all the rage in the past

few years. Yeah, completely looks just like that. Although what legendary thing about that artist. I believe it's like they just tell him a summary of the movie. He never actually sees it. He just draws it from that. Like I think one of the Halloween posters has a freaking helicopter in the background. Is amazing, gotta love it. Next one up, our first boutique release of this film, coming out December sixteenth from Nova Media. We

get a full sleep full slip release of Titan from twenty twenty one. This is gonna have a lentucular full slip for seven hundred copies, regular full slip of seven hundred copies with five postcards, and then this will also have English subtitles on there, and it's got the trailer on there, but nothing else as far as special features. But this looks like a pretty decent packaging release for this film. I'm glad we're getting something. Yeah, I've never seen.

I just think I've heard about the car baby about it. It's a it's an interesting movie. It's really well made. It's it's one that is not nearly as as much of a regular film as ra was, but this one is. It's it's a good watch. It's certainly fun, great director love that director. Let's see coming around April twenty twenty three as a Zavvy exclusive collector's edition the Fifth Element. This is gonna be a four K and

exclusive disc from zav Unfortunately, I think this has already sold out. But as you can see, they really went all out on this, and the steel book looks incredible. Yeah, I had stood out and I believe either of the Nova or the Kimshi Fifth Elements steel book, and this one was like, really nice if you missed out on that one. A lot of extras from the picture you showed before. What you think about the artwork, it's decent. This is a movie that I grew up with, like it

quite a bit. This this little poster right here, the green and red. We've gotten that as a steelbook quite a few times. I feel like, but yeah, solid, solid release. It looks like yeah, but the downside is it's Zavvy. The packaging, right, Yeah, they've stepped up a little bit, but they're packaging and then they're tracking. For the longest time, they would give you an email saying that something shipped with no tracking number in it, so it was just a hope that it got here

from the UK. Next up is Nova Media has a fit announced their Winter Festival sale that started on December first, and we'll run throughout the rest of December, and if we have enough time, which we should considering we have blown through most of these announcements, we're actually going to take a look at

the sale. I've got that open in a tab for us. Yeah, and just to mention on that, they recently brought back their K packet, which is the cheapest shipping option, So if anybody is considering buying from there, do we know why that went away? I feel like it went away just because of COVID or something. I think so. And then even when things cleared up, it was still gone for a while. Yeah, it took a while to come back. Long while coming on February thirteenth from who

is this Mantill Lab? That's right, I never remember who actually is that? Manti Lab on four K in various steel book versions the Matrix from nineteen ninety nine. Of course, we do have a one click option here, and for those that don't remember, a one click means you get all versions of the film and it's the same film, same discs and everything, just in different packaging. And if you get the one click, you just get

every single version. The one click is limited to six hundred sets, the full slip that you see here limited to fifteen hundred, and then the double lenticular full slip. This one is limited to fifteen hundred as well. Also with the one click, I'm pretty sure it's the only one available if you go to the first pick that includes that paperweight in the middle. Yes, twenty twenty two of the year, I am still looking for paper weights. Yeah. I think they went a little lazy with the all work for the

individual releases. I do too. This is one that I was not super stoked to see a lot of the artwork. Unfortunately, it's basically the alternate poster artwork that we've been seeing for the last twenty three years for the film. I'm guessing the I don't know who owns this, but we're probably strict about what stills to use for the release. Yeah, I can't quite get a good clear picture. Yeah, they must be, but the art seems

to be a sticking point for a lot of these companies. Yeah, Okay, here's a big one so coming in January from media CS from Germany. Wow, that was supposed to say in Germany, and it says in January we get the Uninvited from I don't have the years either, Operation Osaka, The Cursed House, The Seller, The Trader, Diamond Doll, Identification of a Woman Killer, Goodbye in the Return. I have a feeling that some of those titles are just mistranslated titles from Germany, and this is just what

they were delivering to us. Some good art mixed in with some bad art here, but it's just a classic German media book drop of Hey, we're dropping all of these media books. Come surf through all of these blurry pictures and see which one you want, and then it shows up to your house and it's really nice. But yeah, the Uninvited was what Vinegar or Severn? The Uninvited was Vineger? I think the other cat one? Oh what

was the other cat one? Uh? Severn did the one with Christopher Lee, I believe, Okay, I never remember the title of that one. Next up, this one is actually pretty damn cool. On December twenty third from Nameless Media Film in Germany, we are getting the Hostile Media book collection.

The original Hostile will be a four disc edition with two different versions Hostile two first time in the full unrated version in Germany, ever, Hostile three will be in the unrated version, and then there will be a super edition with three media books with different styles than the individual ones, and then a big book media book with all three movies as a single collection. There's also a VHS slipcase edition with the hard boxes. You zoom in a little bit,

so maybe you can see some of what we're dealing with here. Again, a lot of classic imagery from the films. Nothing super groundbreaking, but these companies with the super you know, basically a big box with all three films on media book, on their own media book. Those are some really nice releases. Yeah, are you a fan of the Hostile series? Uh? Yeah? Actually, oh the Uncanny Thank you and it was Peter Cushing. I got that wrong, thanks Travis and Antoine. Uh yeah, I

like Hostele. I'm a big Eli Roth person. I really like the way that he he like gets his passion out there. A lot of people hate him, but I've never had anything against him. Hostile is tough, obviously for a lot of reasons, but I grew up loving Saw and the other films that came around that time. So yeah, big fan, what do you, what do you think I have seen the first two. I'm not big into torture porn, maybe in small doses, like I know, have

you ever heard of the game until Dawn? Yeah, I know it has, like there some scenes in there I could you know with the story is okay, but like most of the movie is not for me. That makes sense. In fact, now that you said that, I don't know that I've seen the third Hostile film either. I know that I've seen the first

a lot, in the second one a few times. I know, I know when me and my friends had made us like I don't want to go over to like whatever scan Eastern Europe country that was never want to visit there. Yeah, that makes sense. Coming in January from Focus Media on four K and blue ray media books in Germany, we are getting ticks from nineteen ninety three. This appears to be the exact same scan as the Vinegar Syndrome scan. And over there they are calling it C two Killer Insect and this

is the art that they're going with. I do like the original art, this one and then this one here, but again super blurry pictures, like what is this? How are they advertising with that? That makes no sense. Yeah, I mean that one looks like a lot of detail when it so. But you can tell right Travis is into Eli Roth as well. That's good to hear. Here's some cool ones coming on March thirty first in

Germany. From WGF in a Blu Ray Media book, we are getting Edge of Fury, also known as The Fist of Vengeance, and this is the first time that the film has been out on HD anywhere in the world, I believe. And I don't know if this has US subs on it yet or not. I could not find that information sadly, but it's Bruce Lai, which a lot of people thought that was Bruce Lee, who had of course died before this came out. Yeah, I haven't Delveton b Ploitation yet.

I think Seans enjoys Lie the most out of all the Bruce Ploitation actors. It is like this open secret that Severn is working on a Bruce Ploitation box set, supposedly, and the rumor is that there's quite a few of these live films in there, so I can't wait till they reveal the details on that for sure. That's nice then, Also from WGF on March thirty. First, we are getting Shao Lynn Handlocked, which I can't remember. There was a there was an alternate title for this one that I could not

track down. This one is from nineteen seventy nine. And this is another Bruce Lai film. Another one that is the first time on Blu ray anywhere in the world. Let's see. Ruben says, Bruce lai skills are almost as good as Bruce Lee's. Gotta love those seventies offs. Yeah, that's is Red in the front especially. I thought that was a onesie coming on March tenth in Germany from Retro Gold sixty three. In two different media books, we are getting strange behavior and that art not not doing it for me,

and really neithers this first one. This one is getting a padded media book limited to three hundred and thirty three pieces for cover A and two hundred pieces for cover B. Twenty four page booklet, interview with the producer, and some trailers. That's all we get on that one. I've never seen

this before me neither. Then this is this is the big Boy. So Nameless Media just dropped all kinds of titles, so they said, coming in quarter four of twenty twenty two, all the way up through quarter two of twenty twenty three, we are getting Terrifier to the Goonies, The Last Boy Scout, Gremlins, Gremlins two, a Gremlins double feature disc in a media

book, switching to the next one. Then we got the Class of ninety nine, Mosquito State, Ricky Oh, the story of Ricky Dragged Me to Hell Happy, Which I'm curious about Happy is if this is going to be just the first seer season, just the second season, or both or what? While you enjoy the show I loved Happy? Did you like Happy? I actually never seen it. I read the comic it was based off of. It is so well made. It is one of the most like faithfully

adapted comic book things that I've seen in a long long time. For those of you who don't know, it's basically like disgraced detective alcoholic who is trying to find was his daughter or child. I watched it as it air, and it's been a long time now. I think it was his daughter. Yeah, He's trying to find his daughter who was taken by a periphio Santa Claus, and he's being helped by like an Imaginary Blue was the Unicorn yep, and it was voiced by Patton Oswald. Okay, yeah, happy,

he's great. Then we got one of Dead or Alive with Rutger Howard, and then a tango in Cash. Violent City is coming on four K even and then Cobra changing it again, and then there is Millionaires Express arisaka the Towering Inferno, Enter the Dragon, and then they get into all of the the Resident Evil options where they're all gonna have their own single media books, or you can go for the super Collection where they have their own media books

all in one box together. And then they're even teasing other titles here at the bottom. So Nameless is just coming out and releasing everything all at once. It seems like, yeah, they'll deal. Must have aligned with all these releases quick. But there's some heavy hitters in there, yep. And that is the final announcement for premiums. We did it. Let's go over what is coming out next week just in case you forgot, and let me

get that sharing on our screen. We got Highlander in four K coming, Carrie four K coming from Screen Factory, Silent Night, Deadly Night three through five coming from Vestron, Coraline four K coming in the Steel Book and standard releases. Para Norman as well, coming in four K and standard Steel Book versions. Walk to Remember coming from Shout Select. Genuinely can't wait to own that movie again. Love that movie. Ghost Watch coming from One to one

Films in the US. The Synaps release of Creature from Black Lake is technically not out till next week. The Big Fall Slash Summer Late Summer Smash Hit Smile will be out on four K next week. Spider from David Cronenberg, My Best Friend's Wedding on four K with Julia Roberts, Let's see the Velvet Underground from Criterion, The Woman King on four K, Silent Running four K from Arrow and then we are getting Coolly High from Criterion. Born to Fight

Cop Game and then it reloaded or I clicked something and double Target. Those are all technically coming out from seven this week. Thrillers from the Vault from Mill Creek, The Hallelujah Trail from keno Aus's Creek, the Complete series in case you want to go hang out with Pacey again. They got a release listed for Maniac Drivers that coming to the US. I had no idea The three films by my Zetterling from Criterion. That's one of their December box sets.

Blood and Diamonds from eighty eight Films getting that release, the Honsing Sue box set that is coming from Cinema, Gild Girl on a Motorcycle from Keno Lorber, Let's See a Fish in the Bathtub coming from Cohen Media on the Yard and a Walk on the Moon double feature coming from KNA Cohen Media. A lot of other single title releases, and that seems to be the bulk of the big ones. La Petite Mort from Unearthed Films is in there as

well. Blackhallar from Wild Eye is getting this weird special edition really, which I'm still shocked at getting. I didn't know what a holler was until I saw that Tim let fallon show was justified. Yeah, good, good show. I lived. I lived in Arkansas for a couple of years, so I'm not familiar with all the Southern like things down there. Nice. Uh, Let's see. We got a couple of other things we're gonna talk about. We gotta sale, we got some alternate posters for films, and then

I think you got a couple of premiums left. What do you want to go with? Next, I'll let you pick. We could dive into like posters. Since we talked about art work with premiums, let's do that. So Ice and myself, we both are interested in art prints a lot of artists. In fact, you want to share on this, you've been doing a little longer than me. Yeah, so uh, I would say the nineties when movie posters has pretty much tipped and dive into promoting the artwork for

movies. A lot of just floating heads with the main stars on the pictures, golden the days of like the Goonies and Star Wars, that artwork feel to the movie. So, like I want to say towards like two thousand and six A or whatever. Mondo basically started this releasing alternative posters for your favorite movies with different artists, and it's just exploded since then other galleries are picking it up. And then now you see some of these actual premium editions

picking up art work from these artists to release for them. So we were talking about what to share and Ice decided on a top six list of some of our favorite alternative movie poster prints basically, and we're gonna see a I made a little image gallery here for both of our picks. This is ICE's number six pick and it's Grave of the Fireflies. This was a commission and

the artist is Mika Takahashi. I just love this print. The colors are beautiful, and I don't know if you guys know this, but I believe in one of the original posters for this movie. If you up the brightness on the poster, you can see the bombers in the sky, and then this one you can see the bombers in the sky clearly. So yeah,

I absolutely love this screen print. I unfortunately don't have all of my artists memorized, but I did put in my picks alternating so if you know, if you know the artist of my prints, by all means, please give them their credit. My number six is this release of the Hitcher. This is one that the moment I saw, I love this one. I believe the artist name is Bruno Verharrison. That's the one. Yeah, I really agree with you too. I just recently saw The Itcher recently and I did

enjoy it a lot. Nice pretty that a truck trailer scene at the end with with hers like you know, I'm glad they don't show it. You don't need to see it. Let your mind realize what happens right, Ice is number five here, we've got Battle Royale. Let me make this just a little bigger. Yeah, so Battle Royale. I you know it was not released in the US in the nineties early thousands, but my uncle, you know, working in the game store, got a DVD from Chinatown and

that's when I was first exposed to it. It freaked me out, not wanting to visit Japan. But Mondo released this print and the artist is Brian Le O'Malley. If you guys are not familiar with him, he's the original creator of Scott Pilgrim. Yeh. And basically all my prints here are personal girls that I do not own that I would like to own. So, yeah, this is I love this Battle Royal print. It's a good one.

And yeah, clear clear same style as the Scott Pilgrim one. My number five this is under the skin and just the color on this one is magical. Yeah, the reds, the blues in there. I'm not familiar with the artists on this one. Have you seen the other print where it's just like different body parts against a black background. I don't think so. I don't you want me to send it to you. Yeah, by all means, I'll add it to my If I ever see this then I might

want it list. But yeah, I love this. Under the Skin I think is a really underrated film. Not a lot of people have seen this one still for some reason, a lot of people anti a twenty four and I don't know. This movie is just odd and it's one that I think more people would like if they gave it a time of day. The hard part is it's a little bit difficult to get through this one. I haven't seen either, but I hear Scarlett was great in there. Yeah, Rubin

says, is it's supposed to be Scarlett Johansson. It's supposed to be pretty close at least. Let's see ICE's next pick. I believe this is number four is a film we just talked about. Yeah, so this is by This was a commission that I wholeheartedly regret not joining. And this is my artist named Chris Skinner. I just, you know, tired of the typical floating head thing. This is a great scene of the city and if you play close attention, and there's a lot of Easter eggs, like next to

the the the opera singer. You see Leelu above her jumping down, and then you see the Chinese food cart right there. If you're assuming, like you see Leelu there, and then the bottom you see ruby on the walkway in the bottom. Yeah. So if you just pay attention to this print, a lot of nice Easter eggs in there, lots of detail. Yeah, you see him with the stewardess and the next to the car down there. Jeez. My number four is this Batman returns print? That one I

believe was released by a gallery called Bottleneck. Really, I didn't know it came from Bottleneck. Yeah, this is the one that I love. I grew up with this movie, watched it countless times. But the art in this, if you look really close, there are certain things just like that last one. Just really great detail. Yeah, definitely, And it's also this one, and I like that not everything has to be vertical. It's horizontal. So nice way to hang it up. Yep, all right,

next one number three for you. Yeah, so, uh, I forgot what gallery produced this, but I'm sorry if I mispronounced her name. The artist is and Ada and this is obviously for the Princess Bride. Her her art work is usually very busy, but I think this is perfect for the Prince's Bride. I could see this as a book cover. Oh yeah, and then the colors are amazing. This is a princess bride. I don't know for you, but as a child, as a child with a personal

favorite and it still is, I would love to own this print. Yeah, it's a It's a wonderful movie. Lots of good memories with that one, for sure. My number three is this pic of hell Raiser. Same artist as the hitcher Bruno. Yeah, sadly, I think I have three from Bruno on here, or maybe I took one away. I love this pic of hell Raiser. I think it really gets into the depravity of the film pretty deeply. Really good detail, I think, and it's a little

minimalistic. It's not over the top, and they really could have been m love love Hell Raiser. And I'm not sure if the actual print the yellow is actually gold foil. I don't remember if the commission was that. So if it is, if you see it in person, it will pop nicely. Wow. All right. Number two This one was a cheat. I had to put all three in. So this is from one of my favorite screenprint artists. I believe his his French. His name is Lauren Direct.

I believed. And yeah, I just love the colors in this and then not the focus, like small things in the movie, like this one from the orange scene. What did you think of these? Yeah, these are really well done. I had never seen these before you send them over. I especially like the second one because it's something so understated from the film rather than the iconic imagery that we normally get. And it's just a nice way to show that these movies are a lot more than the big scenes that we've

all come to relate to the films. Yeah, this one, this, and there's another Godfather print where it's basically like oil family tree of every body in the movie. Are like the best ones out there if you want to get them nice. My number two is this gorgeous Doctor Sleep print. I love everything about this. I still have not seen the movie. Oh,

it's such a good movie. And then the I think it's only on the Blu ray disc, but the the director's cut adds like seventeen minutes, which it's already a long movie, so adding seventeen minutes sounds like a lot. But it's like midsommer where it's actually a decent set of added like context of the film, it's something that really adds to the story. Yeah. Love And the big thing I hear about is that seeing with the kid that she had to cry afterwards. Yep, yeah, really good. All right,

then Ice is number one? All right? This print in the after market, I've seen hit in the thousands. This is released by Mondo and the artist is Martin Ansen for a ghost in the show. And there's a foil variant of this that absolutely look beautiful. The colors pop. I know people like to I love ghosts in the show franchise, and people like to praise

the Ritual movie, which is really good. But my favorites actually the nineties TV series that explored the themes of AI and are they real people having the souls and things like that better than the movie did. Wow? Interesting? Why why does it go for over one thousand? Was it super rare? Uh? I'm not sure about the prime rum but this this is one of

the earlier Mondo prints. So the early stuff, like there's a Dirty Harry poster that's very minimalist with his gun the gun online forms face that goes for a lot of money, like all the early mondol stuff goes for money. That makes sense. All right, then my number one, my last one here, this is the Lost Boys and this print is just beautiful. Yeah, I'd love how we get Santa Monica here at the bottom and hanging up,

said Donald's. I've seen that Alan has done really well. Yeah, there's also uh, there's a version of this that was done for uh what we do in the Shadows as well, almost the exact same style, and uh it is. It is very funny. I would love to put both of them on the wall next to each other. I still need to get into a TV series. I enjoyed the movie. I haven't dove into the Hulu show. I have not watched the show at all either. But yeah,

those are our picks. Love these. If you got any comments or if you have any limited prints or anything like that, let us know. How about this winter sale, let's start sharing some of this. So for those that don't know Nova Media, this is one of those premium companies that we were just talking about. And these are all on sale and are half priced for the entire month of December, and they get expensive when you start looking at shipping. So keep that in mind, but yeah, I believe

we're all full price right now. Right If you add it to the card, the discount will show. To talk about the shipping. If you use K packet, it's based off of weight, so you only could fit like maybe three or four single releases before they'll say a million dollars for shipping. So if you're trying to just like get the most money, like one box

set, maybe then or three or four single releases. Yeah, I think if they are semi light, you might be able to get two box sets, but yeah, usually it's three if they're steel books, at least three single releases sometimes for if they're exceptionally light, but other than that, then it starts to get a Yeah, they tell you that it's a million dollars just to make it so that you don't buy from them, which is a good thing. And it's the one car Wesson really fifty off that just came

out recently. It is I believe, Yeah, I believe if you add this to the cart, it is showing up as yep, one hundred dollars. Yeah, this blows to me personally. The criterion set out the water of how just how it looks and then the packaging wise and if I remember right, it's all the exact same disks as the Criterion release. Don't think is it? I don't think it's the same features though, Oh is it? Okay? I thought they got somehow I thought they got them all.

I think it's the same restorations, but just the features might be the right, got it? That doesn't make sense? So a lot of these like this Pig lenticular full slip love the movie. If you really wanted a nice premium release a Pig, it's eighteen dollars or nineteen dollars right now, that's not bad at all, But then you look at shipping and the shipping is like, I can't remember KPAK what is it like twenty five something like that?

Yeah, I believe so, Yeah, it's around twenty five dollars, so you'd want to get probably two or three titles to make it so it's only about eight dollars shipping each. And they've got quite a bit of really great premium releases in here. And if you want, I think you can

just look at Let's see Plane addition is some of the premiums. Yeah, and also like if you're looking through here, I just want to like, For example, some of these movies don't have English friendly release, Like I'm pretty sure this release right here, New Dragon in this is the only English friend release in the world right now on blue ray if you want to get it. Wow. So that's why you make sure you look through the cells to see because a lot of like Golden Harvest stuff is in here. Some

Shaw brothers like uh, what was it one Armed Swordsman? I believe all three of them? Take her in here. Here's some Golden Harvest stuff and Noble Fortune, a lot of Steven Chaw movies that you see right there in the top right when he looks like Leon the Professional. So it is out of the If you like Steven Shaw, a lot of his movies are in here that you could dive in. What was what else? A Chinese ghost

story? All three movies the trilogy? Yeah is in here. Uh, I know this got Eureka released The Bride with the White Hair, but this one also has the second movie I think. Also the Black Mask movies are in here also, oh wow, yeah, was it two or three of them? Then they have a set here that you could get interesting. And like Ryan said earlier, some of their steel books that didn't sell out,

you could get some of them fIF and on on those. We're even talking the one clicks that are very expensive when they first get announced, but then you can get them for much much cheaper during this sale. There's the Chinese Ghost Story right there, that's the one I've got. Yeah, there's the Black Mask in the bottom left one and two and it's only twenty bucks. That's pretty great. And the Better Tomorrow Trilogy for twenty five not bad at

all. And then when you click on steel Book you'll see there's a lot of stuff in here too. You don't steal book. You don't only have to look at the window. So if you're looking for like, isn't there something that says Nova steel Book, Like, just go click on Nova on the top top bit. You you could see all the like limited edition releases that they put out if you just like that's exclusive to them. So yeah, like this Dark Waters steel book one click. This is when it first

came out one hundred and twenty five dollars. You can get it right now for sixty two. That's pretty damn good. That gray steel book has been around forever. This one click there you go now a lot of these are sold out. I think the rest of them are sold out. Actually, yeah, but not terrible. We got some good stuff in here. Yeah that if you to take advantage of a lot of Asian movies you've been thinking about getting. Rubin says, I remember when Black Mass came out here in

the theaters back in the day. It was the only one in the theater. All right, you want to share a couple more of your premiums. Yeah, sure. Uh. This one was a Kims exclusive for Wynn River. Of course I got the lenticular again. Nice you see Jimmy Renner and a little bit on either side. Uh. The numbering is usually a credit card looking thing to see what number you got. This is the skill book. I don't know. It came with a j card and underneath it the

footsteps are debossed. I don't know when you see that. But the reason why I want to highlight this set is one of the coolest extras that came with. If you've seen the movie, Jemmy Runner's daughter does a poem. Uh, and he does he read it in the movie. I don't remember you see it. I think he does a voiceover. Yeah, and then this set actually comes with a replica of that poem and the drawing and everything. Sure, right now, nice, that's really nice. Yeah, also

comes with art cards. Yeah. Reuben wind River is really good. Yeah. I actually still need to get The Hell or High Water Best Buy because I missed out on the Korean steel Book of it. That's a solid movie too. Yeah. Of course Scio two sucks. I don't care what Flip says. I just feel like it's a stop gap for the potential third one and developing that character that he's gonna turn to his life. Uh. I just want to highlight bud Blue because bub Blue is a small Korean company only

released in Korean movies. Basically that the definitive release of a movie called a Better Sweel if. I don't know if you've ever heard of it, I have not. It's a stars lead beyond Human and like I said, features don't usually get subtitles, but that release all the features of subtitle wow. Yeah, and it's also steel book, but this one's for the Age of Shadows that stars a Kangho soul from a parasite and the host Steve Book reads, I'm sorry this can still steal. But and the last thing I want

to show is a world cinema library. I think one of the there are was this. Underneath them is the Skino, which focused on Chinese cinema that we can't get anywhere else. And this one was a Media Cycles exclusive box set. It's called the fifth Generation Chinese Directors, and I just want to highlight it because each of these had limited editions to them. These are just plain editions with the amer and stuff. But Media Cycles they decided to like,

we'll do a box set housing all the plain editions together. And the Skino was the first company before the Zan Your Move box set with Gung Lee to release rid So the movie for the first English release of this, so it canceled with that. The Black Cannon Incident, the Horse Thief, King of the Children, and The Swordsman, Double Flag Town. All these are classic Chinese cinema that's not available anywhere on blowing except to them. Very nice,

that's awesome, And that was Media Psychos. Yeah, this you cannot get anywhere because it was exclusive from group by. I don't know if you can see it's like a little shiny off of this and a little bit evolved right here. Nice. So if you ordered all the premium editions. It came with like a box in to holes house all the releases. Wow, that's a lot. Yeah, for those that don't know, Media cycles is a commonly used group by sight. Another one is High Def nine. I

think those are the two biggest. Are there any other big ones that are used right now? I don't think I'm a bluer that comes. Sometimes they

do group buys, but I don't know on their level. And sometimes you need to do group buys for some of these releases, like Theskino it's hard to get anywhere else, and like what ud Blue Ring, the Chinese company, they don't have like a physical store or website store that you could get from a lot of times on these releases they will sell out on pre order, so that if you're not in the group by you're just so ol, which sucks obviously. But Stan Geezy's here pretty much as we're done. Hello

Scan, what's going on to that? My friend? Uh? Yeah? Any any other any of the things that we miss that you think we should highlight? Oh? I think pretty much cover everything up. Look out the Nova Media cell. It's worth it. Like I just pay attention to the shipping and dive into the premi edition game, because these are really quality releases.

If you love a movie and has a premim edition or had it to just to get it, Yeah, and obviously they're expensive, but if you can there, they are releases for these films that you will probably cherish a lot more than some of these others. And it's not that just having pretty

packaging is always worth it. There's a lot of other things like genuine only English releases available, or getting something that will make it that much more special for you, like the poem in the picture of that wind river is that's not something that you're going to get in most releases of these Yeah, I agree. All right, Well, I guess it is time that we head out for the night. I hope everybody has enjoyed this week. It has been a really great show. I think this is only the second time that

I've done premiums. So if you are into the premiums, you like that we've been covering them, let me know. It is something I'd love to hear about because it's it's something that I've been into for quite some time. And as usual, got to thank all of the patrons. Have a few new ones in the last couple of weeks. Wanted to make sure that they get their due. I appreciate all of the support. It helps keep the channel going for sure. And we have a lot of stuff coming up in

the next few weeks. It's the end of the year, so we're gonna be talking about some wrap up stuff. Like I said, next week, Steven Billings from Chasing Labels will be with us. I got a couple of new comments. Dan Geezy got the Steel Book of Mad God. Very nice. I still haven't watched it. I'm waiting to get my copy on physical, so I I'm not sure if I love it, but I need to own the Blue Ray because just how visually and mine crazy that is. It's
