Title: release date prediction requests?
Post by: Ernie on February 23, 2003, 11:10:51 PM
I just have a request for some release dates, more like release seasons really. Just tell me if the following DVD's will come out before/during summer/spring OR in the fall. I'm not really good with predicting DVD release dates so I figured I'd ask you guys. I don't know the theatrical release dates of half the movies I see. I get confused with all the limited release dates and premieres and sneak previews and all that shit.

So, you don't even have to give me the month, just give me the season if you could, hopefully spring or summer. See, these are some of my favorite movies of 2002 that haven't been released on DVD yet and well, I just love when the best DVD's come out over the summer or spring because I have more time to watch them and the summer is my favorite month because there's no fucking school. The spring is just as good, it leads right up to no school. I hate when they come out in September or October though, that's all. So, just give me your best prediction. Thank you in advance. Here they are.....

25th hour
adaptation
all the real girls (no, i haven't seen it yet but i'm sure i'll love it)
confessions of a dangerous mind
the kid stays in the picture
punch drunk love

The last date I heard for Punch-Drunk Love was April 22nd...i think i remember catching word that it has been put back yet again...

I havent checked any of those other titles yet but amazon usually gives out release dates pretty far in advance.

Oh, that's not bad at all. April is perfect. Thanks man. Even if it gets pushed back, they can't push it all the way back to September, right? I'll buy a barebones edition if I have to, it's no big deal. Thank you for that info.

The April 22 date is no more. No word on the official release date.

The last half an hour of 25th Hour, the "fuck you" montage and most of the rest of it is so great. I really loved that movie, Spike Lee can be so great sometimes.

Do you think Adaptation will come out before the end of this upcoming summer?

Sphinx, you probably really believe this. That is becuase you are crazy. The disc will be ready by summer's end. And it will have special features.

Ok, there's no need to lie to me. All I wanted to do was ask a little simple question about something I really want to know and now, I don't know who to believe. I can't tell whether or not some of you guys are kidding anymore, alright. So, could somebody just tell me whether or not Adaptation will come out on the beautiful DVD format before the end of the summer of 2002, leaving all in-jokes and all the other mind games that I don't understand at the door. It would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance.

Ebes, I don't know any official release date, but considering the release of the movie, I can gurantee it will be out by the end of the summer. I would guess a late may to late june release. somewhere between that time is the best bet.

even july is possible, but more likely the first option.

you forgot to bold it for ebeaman. no, it will not be released before the end of summer


btw DVD is only a beautiful format compared to VHS (and VCD if you want to be picky) Im still waiting for some HD-DVD.

Post by: Gold Trumpet on February 25, 2003, 09:51:21 AM
why wouldn't it be released before the end of summer? end of summer is late august, doesn't make sense considering all previous release dates for movies coming out at the same time.

Alright, I figured sphinx was fucking around when he started talking about a christmas release. There's no way it's that far away.

Nobody's making fun of anybody. There is no concrete information that anybody knows of, and if anybody does know, it's Mac. If he knew, we'd know.

Ugly, hurtful things.

Oh my god, I just said I didn't care but thank you for your timely albeit insincere help. I know Duck Sauce is just being a smart guy.

Your signature makes me laugh for some reason, lol...that is unreal.

Lol, I can only imagine.

You know, I don't think I've ever seen such a weird sense of humor anywhere outside of this site.  It's even weirder in the way that I seem to be the only one that doesn't get it.

Stick around. It will seep into your veins and poison your mind.

Actually, this quote was cool, because it was my intention to make a film community that catered to a slightly off-center sense of humor. Sweet success. Now, to attract more freaks.

Lol, it's a weird feeling man. There's one difference though...I'm interested in this, Britney is not interested in the films at Sundance.

This guy here is a genius. This is ALL I wanted, isn't it simple? Notice the lack of surreal, tongue in cheek phrases and expressions. This is a model reply for my requests. I can't thank you enough man. The best part is, according to your predictions...they are all coming out way before the end of the summer.

Yes, but remember...this is just a prediction. It doesn't have to be right. I won't hunt you down and kill you if you're wrong. It's close enough probably, right?

You definitely succeeded man...there is some weird stuff around here. But don't get me wrong, sometimes I do enjoy the humor, when I get the jokes. Some of them are just to "inside" for me, you know? I like it.
