Price is $29.95 each. See the Screen Archives site for a list of extras: http://www.screenarchives...OF-WRATH-1940-PRE-ORDER/ http://www.screenarchives...HE-GREEK-1964-PRE-ORDER/ Wonder if those will ever be offered in broader distribution down the road. They appear to be FOX, not Twilight Time. It's kinda sad that a title as important as THE GRAPES OF WRATH would be available only through a single, relatively obscure site (compared to Amazon or Barnes & Noble). Correct--these are not Twilight Time limited editions. Apparently this is part of a new program for Fox to release two SAE exclusive Blu-rays each month. Whether these titles will get a wide release late on has not been announced, although I would think that if something like STARS AND STRIPES FOREVER gets a wide release, the much better-known GRAPES OF WRATH and ZORBA would also get wide releases, probably six months or so after their SAE debut. Yeah, the general release is 6/5/12, so patience should save you some (a lot of) money. Two releases a month is very good news, probably a lot of great b/w classics.

Mar 19 12 3:10 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I think this would probably be region-free, so still quite importable. Well then, count me IN! In spite of its sluggish middle section the film holds up well for me and the print knocked my socks off! After tracking down the chek VHS rears ago I had assumed that would be as good as it gets and then... WHAMO! Beautiful print (looks like it was filmed yesterday) gets released with absolutely NO fanfare and a giant eye on the cover that has nothing what so ever to do with the film! A friend bought me a copy and brought it over just to see the expression on my face during the first 2 minutes of the film. The elements are so amazing it can only make an eye popping Blu ray! Say, maybe thats why theres a big eye on the MGM release. Jim and Judy's Horror Models WWW.jimandjudyshorrormodels.com The Music WWW.earthmanout.com

Yes, beautiful--after a massive amount of digital cleanup. Before cleanup, there were so many white speckles that it looked like snow was falling throughout the entire movie!

Apr 5 12 4:33 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Does anyone care if I stop updating the list in the first post? It doesn't seem to add much value these days. When I started a year and a half ago, the posting about new releases was rather sparse. Back then, about half of the updates to the list were things I found myself. These days, no matter how hard I try, well over 80% is just copied from the forum. That's one reason I've been updating less frequently. Maybe we were just slow back then because of the economy. Whatever the reason, we seem to have adjusted and picked up since then. People have also stepped up and started posting regular updates for more specific stuff like MODs, Shout Factory, Synapse, and others. pulp novelties already noted the trend towards separate threads before I even took over the list. Personally, I think it's better to have more specific threads, and not lump everything in one place. Of course, having one thread like this is a good place to talk about lesser titles that don't rate a thread. But then, what value does the first post have? It's always behind the rest of the forum. At best, it's helpful for people that don't have time to look through the forum. And, frankly, I'm not so sure I want to encourage people to avoid reading the forum. Maybe it's nice to have a history of releases, though I haven't been adding the MODs--maybe I should. Or am I missing something? Feel free to message me if you don't want to respond here.

Apr 5 12 7:51 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	SiBurning... it DOES save folks a lot of time if they see a new release in the thread and then a month later can't remember the release date. They can then just check the list, rather than sifting through several pages of posts. I know I've done that a couple of times. Just a thought. In any case, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

Must be part of some package deal, they've also released crap like THE VIRGIN WITCH. It's one of those cases where I hope they don't lose their shirts on movies nobody wants before they get to more choice titles like HATCHET FOR THE HONEYMOON or DEVIL'S NIGHTMARE.
