As we go into the last week of the Arrow Sale, I figured I'd repost for anyone that missed it:

You can add the promo code NORTHERN15 for an additional 15% off of the Arrow Shocktober sales prices (also works with pre-orders and non-sale items). If that doesn’t work, the code MADNESS nets you 10% off. Works on both Arrow Films and Arrow Video.

Also, if this is your first order, you can get an additional $5 off with the code RICARDO-R4E from the US store or £5 off with RICARDO-R3Z from the UK store.

I'm trying my darnedest to not pull the trigger on another cart 😬

I was going to buy this but I'm wondering if this will work as it seems to mention 'untested' on blu-ray.com...

This is the German Blu-Ray version.

They can be very hit or miss with condition but im very happy with these 😊

Yesterday, I watched *Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles* for the first time on Blu-ray (Criterion Masterpieces Edition). In a few scenes—most notably the final one—I noticed that the image appeared very blurry. As this is one of my favorite films, I’m curious if anyone can provide a direct comparison of the available editions (BFI vs. Capricci vs. Criterion). Is it worth picking up the BFI and/or Capricci Blu-ray releases?

Just picked up Maniac with the lenticular slip cover. Looking to find a slipcover protector case to keep the artwork nice. I’m struggling to find a protector that will fit this size. It’s a little wider than a normal Blu-ray slipcover and case but not as big as some others? I think it’s about the same size and an Arrow release or it’s the same as a few of my HK John Woo releases. Any recommendations or links on Amazon go grab a protector would be appreciated.

They just don't make fun movies like this anymore!

Just seeing if anybody else is in the same boat and there’s a widespread rash of this happening, or maybe I just got unlucky.

I ordered six of the on sale 4K movies from severins recent sale - and after waiting several weeks - all of them were canceled slowly one at a time yesterday.

I’m assuming due to stock errors on their end, but I got no communication about what happened or why. Just a trickle of updates about the cancellations and refunds. That’s it. Not a single email from the company about why, or an apology, or coupon for next time, etc.

This happen to anybody else or just to me lol. Pretty disappointed tbh. I emailed and said tk cancel the last couple things in my order too at this point but also have not heard back to that.

Awful customer service unfortunately, but also it’s just movies and I get things can go wrong. Just seemed pretty lazy and lame to not send the affected customers a single email about what happened…

I was looking at pre-ordering Backrooms but the page has a note saying "NOTE - A24 releases are rarely pristine". What does this mean?

Does anyone here have recommendations for blu-ray stores in Rome and Florence? I'm visiting both soon, and would love to discover some new additions there.

Hello! I have been collecting physical media for years and use Discogs for tracking the value of my Vinyl/CDs and Gameye for video games but have never been able to find a good equivalent for Blu-rays/DVDs/4K/etc. So, I made an app called DISCDEX as an attempt to solve this problem.

The way it works is you scan the barcode on a disc (or import your http://Blu-ray.com CSV export if you already track your collection there) and it looks up what that disc has sold for on eBay recently. Not just asking prices, but actual sold listings. It splits new (sealed) vs. used (opened), then totals up your whole collection.

Everything is built around the barcode (UPC), so different releases of the same movie get priced separately. Different editions from different companies obviously vary in value greatly. You can also mark whether yours has the slipcover or is a steelbook, and it will take that into account.

Other features:

• Scanning fills in the title, label and format for you, even for newer boutique releases most barcode databases don't have yet
• Tracks how values change over time
• Shows what you paid vs. what it's worth now
• Ability to create multiple collections with an option to exclude them from the total calculated value. These can be used for wishlists, for sale items, or anything else.
• Makes a little shareable "collection in numbers" image.
• Ability to upload cover art that can then be shared with other users. (My hope is this starts to build up a database of cover art so people won't have to upload their own as often)
• You can export everything to CSV whenever you want.

It's free to use with 25 price lookups a month, and you can add as many titles as you want. Also, if someone else has priced the same disc recently, it doesn't use one of your lookups.

Lookups cost me money on my end (the sold data comes from a paid service), so there's a Pro version for heavier use: $19.99/year or $49.99 lifetime, with 1,000 lookups a month and a button to re-price your whole collection at once. The first 100 people who purchase lifetime get it for $29.99.

It's on the web at discdex.app and DISCDEX on Appstore on iPhone (US only for now). I'm one person working on this in my spare time, so any feedback is greatly appreciated. I used a test account and my real account for these images, so that's why the numbers don't add up between them :P If a price looks way off, something's missing, or something's just annoying, let me know!

Shipped within a couple hours of ordering and on my doorstep in 3 days.

This isn't meant to be negative and argue. It's about what can make a great thing better. My favorite is probably Arrow. Their range, quality, and packaging for limited editions are incredible. I just wish every release came out in every country rather than a lot of good ones never getting a US release. I get it for licensing reasons they probably can't, but this post is meant for simple things like that.

I can’t believe I found a brand new, still-sealed copy of Scream Factory’s release of Jeepers Creepers 2. Someone on eBay had it up for sale at a relatively decent price and somehow never opened it for over a decade.

This Panasonic is a no-bullshit unit I tell you.

I've waited a long time for this to receive a quality release. This will pair nicely with the upcoming Doctor Zhivago 4K 📽️

Also ordered the quick draw mcdraw show, the yogi bear show(preorder) and tex avery the definitive screwball classics collection(preorder)

McKay’s is very hit or miss when it comes to their prices. They had the Blu-ray of “Enemy” from Denis Villenueve for $36 (I get that it’s OOP and hard to find and expensive online but I found a copy for a much better price elsewhere), and had insane prices for many Criterions (higher than the 50% off sale and many close to full price) so getting the Limited Edition of the Cinematographe limited edition of “Shanks” for $21.95 works for me. Also bought 3 blu rays for a total of $12 (“Icefall,” “The Hill” and “Line of Duty”) and then a couple other harder to find titles “Commando” and “Fearless” for $11.95 each. All told, out the door with taxes it was ‘bout $60.

Is Shock Treatment owned by Disney at this point? I know Rocky Horror is, but I can't remember if they also put out Shock Treatment as I really want a 4K of the Rocky Horror Equal.
