1
00:00:00.840 --> 00:01:34.920
Sign up. Hello and happy new
year to everybody. We are excited to

2
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:38.640
be here, and of course I
agree with David starting the year off right

3
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:44.280
with the least Celeste welcome. How
you doing. I'm pretty okay? How

4
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:48.920
you doing? Pretty okay? I
mean that's better than we could describe many

5
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.319
days from twenty twenty three. So
hopefully better year for all of us.

6
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:57.280
Yeah, kind of a tough one, honestly, but that's okay. Hopefully

7
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:04.319
we can improve that. Yeah,
that would be nice. It definitely had

8
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:07.239
a lot of ups and downs last
year, and one of the big things

9
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:09.840
is we've had a lot of crazy
stuff happened in physical media. We're here

10
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:15.439
to talk about VS today. Before
I go and share the website, wanted

11
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:21.199
to share a page out of the
zine that goes out for the disconnected,

12
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:24.080
and this is just to highlight what's
coming out this week and what we can

13
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:29.199
expect and what days and all that. So a reminder for today we are

14
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:31.960
getting three Vinegar Syndrome titles that is
from the main line, So if you

15
00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:38.240
do subscribe today you will get those
three titles. And funny enough, I

16
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:42.759
think this is the year we've had
to give this caveat more than ever before.

17
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:47.840
They've also said four in some places, so there's been some mistypings and

18
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.400
errors that have happened. It could
be three, it could be four.

19
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.719
I'm betting it's three because I believe
we're getting a forgotten Jolly box set,

20
00:02:55.520 --> 00:03:01.759
so three would make sense. Today
we will also get a VSU and then

21
00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:07.319
we are also getting twelve partner label
announcements today, and then of course there's

22
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:13.159
also going to be some Blu Ray
slips that are on sale for the entire

23
00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:16.759
twenty four hour period from now until
noon Eastern tomorrow, which is when we

24
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:21.439
were going to see the deal switch
over to box sets. But the big

25
00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:27.759
thing that new sub label. What
are you thinking about that line, the

26
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:30.840
one I don't know how to pronounce
the cinematograph or something like that. Yep,

27
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:35.840
Yeah, I'm really excited about it. I think it'll be really cool.

28
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:39.080
I don't know, I'm always of
like mixed feelings about these new sub

29
00:03:39.159 --> 00:03:44.439
labels and that, like I understand
why they have to exist, because they

30
00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:47.400
can't. I think I was talking
about this in the discord, Like to

31
00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:51.080
make a subscription for everything that they
have, they're going to have to ask

32
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:53.159
for like a two thousand dollars investment, and I think that that's at least

33
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:58.520
going to happen for anybody, and
so it's an interesting or I think it's

34
00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:02.520
probably the best way they can split
the difference and like make sure that they're

35
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:06.120
still putting out the output that they
need to put out with how much stuff

36
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:12.639
they have, versus like actually getting
people a good value for the actual subscription.

37
00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:17.160
Right, it's a tough balance when
you just have so much in your

38
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:21.000
in your vaults to release, you
know, yeah, this is true.

39
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:26.079
And then of course when you are
housing so many partner labels, if you

40
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:30.639
are like Celestial myself and wanting to
venture out into some of these weird lines

41
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:34.800
of things, sometimes that subscription kind
of makes sense. Like I'm not trying

42
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:41.079
to talk anybody into that purchase necessarily
because it's very pricey obviously, but if

43
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:45.399
you buy even I don't know what
the number is exactly, but if you

44
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:49.199
if you're gonna buy maybe a hundred
of them this year, like that's already

45
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:54.240
about the subscription cost and savings that
you would get. And one hundred is

46
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.759
a lot. I'm not saying that's
not a lot, that's that's a huge

47
00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:00.680
number of releases. But right,
but you don't have to get that many

48
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:03.800
to like take a good chunk off
of the price, right right. I'm

49
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:06.399
go'll be doing my video about it
soon because the site will be back up

50
00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:10.720
and I can actually go back into
my purchase history and do some more calculations,

51
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:14.199
and we'll actually have the breakdown of
what's included in the subscription coming up

52
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:18.160
hopefully. Cobwebs Channel, shout out
to you. You make he makes really

53
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:21.720
great videos and he's been a very
kind friend and supporter, so shout out

54
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:26.839
to you. Yeah, this is
gonna be an interesting week for everybody.

55
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.199
Dallas says, when will sub label
start getting their own sub labels? Wait?

56
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:33.519
Wait, wait, wait, wait, hold up, Hold up a

57
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.399
second, Jason Bean, what are
you saying about AGFA? Because I know

58
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:44.759
that Altered Innocence is taking a hike, but what about AGFA. I guess

59
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:49.240
we'll see if there's an actual announcement
because that would be the upsetting. I

60
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:53.160
have not heard anything, and they
are one of the original partner labels,

61
00:05:53.160 --> 00:06:01.000
so I shall see you on that
front. Yeah, there is more stuff

62
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:03.360
coming later this week. As you
can see. We got a VSL coming

63
00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:09.879
on Wednesday. VSP on Friday,
VSA on Saturday, and then another this

64
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:15.639
second release in this cinematrograph for cinematography
whatever we're gonna call this line that's coming

65
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:23.639
on this coming Sunday, and uh
yeah, it's It's gonna be a very

66
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:29.879
interesting week to see what goes on
sale. Bloodmail loves Agfa Simner, Is

67
00:06:29.879 --> 00:06:33.160
that panther a hint? Most likely
that Panther is a part of a slip

68
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:39.240
or art or something for one of
these releases. I'm willing to bet it's

69
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:45.480
probably the VSL on Wednesday. M
That's when they were hinting things. Last

70
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:50.839
time. It was heavily heavily focused
on the VSL. Share me you doing?

71
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:56.920
Okay? This was the first Black
Friday in three years. I didn't

72
00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.959
buy anything. A few titles I'm
interested in weren't interesting enough to justify half

73
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:05.759
off, hoping they'll be cheaper this
week. Who let's see, cheaper than

74
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:12.199
half off is probably not going to
be super common, but never know with

75
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.480
them, I mean, everything goes
on sale and they make all kinds of

76
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:19.680
sales during these events, that's for
sure. Well, the warehouse stuff is

77
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:25.680
less than half off generally speaking,
or like the subscriber week sales, which

78
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:28.879
should be today, But I don't
think they're going to be titles quite that

79
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:31.839
new. They're usually like a few
years old and just like clearing stock at

80
00:07:31.839 --> 00:07:40.000
that point. So one of the
things to discuss before this goes live for

81
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:43.319
Everybody's twenty twenty three as a whole, how do you feel it was for

82
00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:48.480
Vinegar Syndrome. It's complicated, right, I think they're really ramped up,

83
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:53.560
Like there's positives and negatives, and
I think it's mostly positives. And I

84
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:56.600
don't want to sit here and complain
or like shit on them or something,

85
00:07:56.839 --> 00:08:00.399
because I gotta be honest. I
watched the Against the Grain documentary the other

86
00:08:00.519 --> 00:08:03.000
night. Man, It's so good, and it's just like kind of had

87
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:09.399
me like, ah, I just
they're doing great stuff and like, yeah,

88
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:13.639
they're kind of become like this all
encompassing behemoth, but like it's not

89
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:18.480
like it's in service of something cynical. I guess, right, Like they

90
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:22.040
have a good mission statement and they
seem to do a good job and they

91
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.639
seem to be sticking to it.
I don't know, I've talked about this

92
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.120
in other avenues already, but like
I feel like, yeah, the sales

93
00:08:31.159 --> 00:08:35.559
have been a little bit. I
want to be careful with how I say

94
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:37.799
this, because I benefit quite greatly
from the sales and I actually don't want

95
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:43.399
them to stop. But it does
sort of feel like at a certain point,

96
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:48.000
like to me personally, Black Friday
isn't really a big deal anymore for

97
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:52.120
their site, Like it's just half
off, okay, Like today we're going

98
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:56.000
to be getting stuff for less than
half off, like considerably, and that's

99
00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:01.320
what I'm more excited about, right, And I think it's a harder sell

100
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:05.679
for the subscription when stuff that was
in my subscription last year ended up in

101
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:09.919
a subscriber week sale this year for
like less than what I got it for

102
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:13.720
my subscription. I'm okay with that
personally, because I kind of knew what

103
00:09:13.720 --> 00:09:16.360
I was getting into. Like the
nature of a subscription is that like you're

104
00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:20.000
signing up for the whole thing and
you're you know, part of it is

105
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.279
just like I believe in this mission
statement and I believe in what is happening

106
00:09:22.279 --> 00:09:26.120
here, and I want everything and
I want to support it, and like

107
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.759
if it ends up being cheaper later, like that's kind of how it goes,

108
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:33.919
right, It's okay. Yeah,
And like I didn't have to worry

109
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.639
about shipping, and I got all
these other benefits. It's like, I'm

110
00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:39.480
okay with it. It's a very
small thing that Shriek had. The mutilated

111
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:43.799
was like twelve bucks instead of twenty. You know, like it's fine.

112
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.440
But at the same time, I
can see how if you're not an obsessive

113
00:09:46.759 --> 00:09:50.120
or whatever, you look at that
and you're like, why would I even

114
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:56.240
like I'm getting it cheaper now having
not subscribed than a subscriber did last year,

115
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:01.080
Right, And like, I do
think it's pretty unavoidable that they've like

116
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:05.519
devalued their own product, even the
limited edition stuff, like when stuff is

117
00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:09.080
coming out that cheap, and I
kind of get it again, like they

118
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:16.879
have so much inventory that like it
takes up a lot of room, and

119
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:20.679
like they keep like the amount of
output they're putting out every month is just

120
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:22.279
such that I kind of get it. They need to clear out the stuff

121
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:28.480
that's not selling. But I think
a lot of people went into this year,

122
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:31.720
Like I've seen people explicitly say this, like excited because they were expecting

123
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:37.799
them to become like a screen factory
or something. Butts uh huh, Like

124
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:41.440
I mean that would be great because
they like they do such a better job

125
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:45.320
than screen Factory, but like that's
just not what's going on here. And

126
00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:48.120
I think that they could have easily
struck while the iron was hot and like

127
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:54.080
kind of went a little harder into
like acquiring more recognizable mainstream titles or whatever.

128
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.440
And I think they kind of did
the opposite, and they like went

129
00:10:56.559 --> 00:11:01.840
harder and leaned into like weird film
and like foreign films, and this lost

130
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:09.399
film boxe is like the ultimate blind
By and like obscurity. I don't know,

131
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:11.799
there were tome there were whole months
that were all foreign language films.

132
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:15.519
There are a lot of art films
that they put out. I feel like

133
00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.200
they kind of doubled down on,
like, no, we do weird shit,

134
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:22.080
and I really really respect that.
So I don't know. So An

135
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:26.480
interesting thing about this that I've been
thinking about though, however, is Vinegar

136
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:33.120
Syndrome is very much meticulous about planning
in advance. So that glut of mainstream

137
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:35.759
titles that came out in twenty twenty
two, yes, twenty twenty two,

138
00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:41.720
was not acquired in twenty twenty two. Most likely they probably had been working

139
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:45.759
on some of those for a very
long time. I have a feeling that

140
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.720
this year was sort of on the
like the backswing of that mainstream year,

141
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:54.639
and because of that, they couldn't
really put as much into licensing for a

142
00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.799
lot of those. However, that
could mean twenty twenty four is a much

143
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:03.600
more mainstream here for them. Again, not not promising that for anybody,

144
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:07.120
but it could be. It also
could just be they were, you know,

145
00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:09.360
these were in line after they'd planned
for that little bit of a mainstream

146
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:13.840
here to maybe get some extra influx, and now they mix it up moving

147
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:16.679
forward every year from now on,
and if they get enough people buying into

148
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.039
it, they can afford some of
those bigger licenses. So who knows.

149
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:24.799
I mean. The big thing though, is Vinegar Syndrome has always wanted to

150
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.159
go after many of these smaller titles, the weird. I mean, their

151
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:31.840
first title ever was Adult Films from
Herschel. Gordon Lewis like, we're not

152
00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:37.080
going to be, you know,
discussing them putting out Tenacious Dy in the

153
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:39.720
Pick of Destiny on four K or
something. This is this is a company

154
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:48.960
that is going to be focusing on
a huge array of titles. M That's

155
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:52.519
an interesting point. I haven't thought
about that. I do wonder. Obviously

156
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.759
I'm not on their planning schedule or
whatever, but like I wonder if,

157
00:12:56.159 --> 00:12:58.320
Hey, Sam, what's up.
I wonder if, like, uh,

158
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:05.840
I get the sense that they have
things planned out two or three years in

159
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:11.000
advance, and like, if they
wanted to, they could have switched around

160
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:13.480
some stuff to make this year a
little bit more in line with people's expectations

161
00:13:13.480 --> 00:13:16.919
from last year and put some of
the heavy hitters out this year. Yeah,

162
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:20.799
and it almost feels like there was
an active choice not to do that.

163
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:22.080
Of course, I don't know that
for sure. Like it could just

164
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:28.240
be that they had all the weirdo
obscure stuff this year to like kind of

165
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:31.320
capitalize on all the people who signed
up expecting something else or something, and

166
00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:35.080
then like there were licenses in place
where they couldn't put them out this year.

167
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.200
I don't know. You know,
I'm not privy to these things.

168
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:41.840
It's just my perception is that they
had an opportunity and they kind of said

169
00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:46.399
fuck you to that and did something
way weirder. And I really respect that.

170
00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:50.960
But you know, we got Barney
asking do we think that one of

171
00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:52.440
the bigger reasons a lot of stuff
sold out last year was due to the

172
00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:58.000
number of sales, which incentivized a
lot of folks to grab things alongside those

173
00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:03.759
titles. For some title, sure, but then for other titles it's going

174
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:07.919
to be because they're highly sought after, Like Thriller. It was last year

175
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:11.679
that sold out immediately because that title
has been wanted for a long time and

176
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:13.879
it was the definitive release of that
film. It's we're never going to get

177
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:20.080
a better release of Thriller than what
we got. So I think this year

178
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:26.679
I was kind of surprised seeing stuff
with really high print runs sell out like

179
00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:30.879
before they went on sale, Like
Gorgo sold out. I don't think I

180
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:33.679
would have expected, and which,
by the way, I still take full

181
00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:39.000
credit for that undefeatable sold out.
I had like eight thousand units or something

182
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:43.480
like that. The Boogeyman sold out, like there were some titles that maybe

183
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:48.639
are not a listers or something that
sold out before a sale, and I

184
00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:52.080
was kind of thinking, like,
Okay, you're upping your print runs,

185
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:56.720
you're doing below cost sales. You're
going to be training people to not buy

186
00:14:56.759 --> 00:14:58.559
these things at the price that will
actually get you your money back. But

187
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:03.240
then people are anyway, you know, so I don't know, I think

188
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:07.879
there's definitely a sense that this devaluing
thing is happening, but it also just

189
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:09.759
kind of feels like, I don't
know, they seem to know what they're

190
00:15:09.799 --> 00:15:13.200
doing, and like people are not
like the thing that I would expect to

191
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.919
happen, which is just like training
to wait for sales, doesn't seem to

192
00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:20.039
be happening to the extent that I
would expect, right, Like, I'm

193
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:24.919
still seeing a lot of stuff sell
out before it goes on sale. I

194
00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:26.639
think the hard part, though,
when we discuss it like that is we're

195
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:31.480
only talking about vinegar syndrome, and
the fact of the matter is vinegars is

196
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:37.159
vinegar syndrome. Is training the entire
industry to shop only during sales, and

197
00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:41.720
many of these other labels that are
not vinegar syndrome Erosian just playing can't put

198
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:48.360
stuff on sale. I mean,
historically MBD had a couple sales a year,

199
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.399
but if you look over twenty twenty
three, I don't think we went

200
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:54.799
more than two weeks where Aero video
was not on sale. For months at

201
00:15:54.840 --> 00:16:00.840
a time, Readians talk about way
more sales numbersons like Arrow is always on

202
00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:04.039
sale, you know, yeah,
always, They're not they're not as good

203
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.000
as prices as vs. They're not
they don't feel like they're on sale.

204
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:11.919
But they're right. Yes, your
point is valid. I was more so

205
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:15.759
talking about like I would think that
they've been training their own customer base to

206
00:16:15.799 --> 00:16:18.799
not buy stuff on release date,
but I can't speak to the uh general

207
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:22.120
trends of the entire industry. I
think that what you're saying makes a lot

208
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.360
of sense. I don't know that
there's a we'd have to I guess probably

209
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:29.399
wait and see and hear from other
labels and see some data on that,

210
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:33.799
But I think that you're probably right. Like I think that, I mean,

211
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:34.799
well, hold on, let me
play Devil's advocate for a second,

212
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:38.200
because I think Keno has done a
similar thing where they put out a release

213
00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:44.679
and then literally too it's like twenty
bucks or ten bucks, like they feel

214
00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:45.919
the most egregious to me. We're
like, I straight up don't know why

215
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:49.440
you would ever buy a Quinot release
on release date unless you're just like an

216
00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:53.960
obsessive about slipcovers, Like why like
it'll be on sale in like a week,

217
00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:56.840
you know. Like so, I
don't know that it's just them,

218
00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:03.639
but I do agree that that is
becoming a trend for a lot of people.

219
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:07.799
And I mean to keep playing Devil's
Advocate a little bit, like it's

220
00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:11.039
always been a thing that people say, don't buy Criteria titles unless they're on

221
00:17:11.079 --> 00:17:14.359
sale. Just don't do that,
yep, And then most people don't do

222
00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:17.759
that, you know, So I
wonder how much this is something we can

223
00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:22.039
lay at the feet of them and
more so just like a general marketing strategy

224
00:17:22.039 --> 00:17:26.559
that works for everyone, you know, to a point. Chrys Silvestrie,

225
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:30.359
I forget, do we have to
subscribe first to get the deals? What

226
00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:36.160
I'm asking is my subscription from last
year officially expired? Yes? Absolutely,

227
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:41.519
there is nothing carrying over from your
subscription from last year, your awards or

228
00:17:41.680 --> 00:17:48.079
not awards, your rewards, your
tier is officially reset. If you want

229
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:52.160
to get the VSU at half off, if you want to get the Partner

230
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:56.000
labels at half off, you have
to subscribe first because nothing carries over like

231
00:17:56.039 --> 00:18:00.079
that. The Blu Ray slips that
are for sale today at starting at noon

232
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:04.480
Eastern, those are gonna be on
sale for everybody. But yeah, if

233
00:18:04.519 --> 00:18:10.480
you're gonna subscribe later in the week, you might wanna, you know,

234
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:12.440
you definitely don't want to get the
partner labels until you subscribe, but if

235
00:18:12.480 --> 00:18:15.839
something's close to selling out you really
wanted it, you may want to jump

236
00:18:15.880 --> 00:18:22.119
on it. The big question from
New World Pictures podcast, Ryan says,

237
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:30.480
will you be subscribing again? Celest
Uh? Probably, In fact, I'm

238
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:36.640
just I'm just buildings is Yeah,
I'm gonna do it. I mean that's

239
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:37.920
like a ninety nine percent right now. As soon as I see the titles

240
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:42.119
are gonna be like yep ad de
karte. Look, look, I know

241
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:47.000
that I've been pretty public about our
monetary struggles lately and some people might be

242
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:51.759
giving me a side eye right now, but like we are in a better

243
00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:55.880
spot right now, Like my partner
was between jobs, and you know,

244
00:18:55.920 --> 00:18:57.920
those first few paychecks have started to
come in and be more consistent, so

245
00:18:57.960 --> 00:19:02.160
I don't have to pick up as
much to the slack and uh, like

246
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:06.319
you know, the Patreon is doing
better, and like you know, this

247
00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:10.000
is an investment in content for the
channel at the end of the day,

248
00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:12.759
like I do that has become like
a huge part of the output on my

249
00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:19.039
channel is covers on this stuff.
And I shot my Blue Ray audits for

250
00:19:19.079 --> 00:19:23.559
November and December and they're not up
yet because editing is hard. But you'll

251
00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:26.759
see that I put my money where
my mouth was. That I fucking saved

252
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:30.519
for this, so we'll see.
And I'm also not paying for it all

253
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:38.960
at once, like PayPal is my
friend today paying for you know. Barney

254
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:41.880
wants to know. Have you heard
of Dark Force another backstory? Yes,

255
00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:48.000
and yes, we won't get into
it today. That's a rough backstory.

256
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:52.200
Let's see. Joel says, I
don't think they're at Keno level of training

257
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:56.880
folks yet, not quite. Not
quite. They're training other labels like screen

258
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:59.920
Factory to put stock counts on their
sites. Fomo was good for business.

259
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:06.160
Sadly this is true. More stuff
sold out in twenty twenty two than twenty

260
00:20:06.200 --> 00:20:10.200
twenty three, says Ryan. You
know, I'm not entirely sure on that.

261
00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:15.880
I know there's been some weird fluctuations
in stock, Like some of the

262
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:18.160
VS mainline stuff used to be very
low, and then they went up,

263
00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:22.559
and then they like kind of fluctuated
somewhere in the middle, and then many

264
00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:29.200
of the partner labels have gone from
two thousand to one thousand. It's an

265
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.400
odd interesting time. Pulp wants to
know, can you buy stuff this week

266
00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:36.720
without being a subscriber. Of course, you can buy everything this week without

267
00:20:36.759 --> 00:20:40.640
being a subscriber. You just if
you wanted to get stuff at a bit

268
00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:44.480
of a discount. The partner labels, all the sub labels like VSU,

269
00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:48.759
VSLVSA, VSP GOD, there are
too many of those. You can't get

270
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:57.279
a discount on those unless you are
a subscriber. First, yes, Chris

271
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:00.720
wants to know, did I lose
my rewards? Then totally is gonna use

272
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:03.519
them towards a subscription. You did
not lose your rewards, but you lost

273
00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:07.519
your tiers, so you're not gonna
get points at the same I think when

274
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:11.559
you're at the highest level you get
like two points per dollar spent or something

275
00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:15.839
like that. You just go back
to one point per dollar spent. It's

276
00:21:15.839 --> 00:21:19.440
a one point five multiplier. I
think something like that. It goes from

277
00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:22.400
one point twenty five to one point
five. It might be one point seven

278
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:27.279
five actually, something like that.
The hard part though, I don't think

279
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:33.359
you can use your reward points and
the subscriber discount from last year at the

280
00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:36.680
same time. I think you have
to choose one or the other when you're

281
00:21:36.759 --> 00:21:41.240
checking out. I don't think so
if it let you that's that's great,

282
00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:45.079
specifically from last year or just in
general. Well, this is the first

283
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:48.720
year that we've been able to subscribe
after having the rewards like that and getting

284
00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:53.480
the discount from the previous year.
And I believe somebody on Facebook had answered

285
00:21:53.519 --> 00:21:56.960
that from vs that you can only
use one. But either way, like,

286
00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:00.039
if you're gonna be buying a bunch
of partner labels, just use the

287
00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:04.720
rewards points against those because it's the
same amount of money basically that you're saving.

288
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:10.400
But I mean try first. I'm
not saying that you can't for sure,

289
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:17.519
that's just what people are supposedly reporting. Let's see, ultimately buy what

290
00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:19.680
you can get other things later.
Remember you're doing this because the art of

291
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:25.160
film more than anything else. Amn
to John. Appreciate that. Yeah,

292
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:30.200
for sure, I will say with
the subscriber thing, like I think the

293
00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:34.440
reasons to do it are you want
things as they're released, you want discounts

294
00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:37.279
on partner labels. It's really the
biggest thing. I think if you're like

295
00:22:37.319 --> 00:22:42.039
a hardcore freak but like us,
right, like that's what you want and

296
00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:47.519
the sub labels and stuff, and
if you really really care about slipcovers,

297
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:49.960
like that's kind of the best way
to do that if you don't care about

298
00:22:49.960 --> 00:22:53.960
slipcovers and you're more selective about your
purchasing and you're not you don't find yourself

299
00:22:53.960 --> 00:22:57.759
shopping this site every single month.
Like I'm gonna be so honest with you,

300
00:22:57.839 --> 00:23:00.359
like you you're better off weaight for
sales. And if this slip sells

301
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:03.519
out, this slip sells out,
Like if you don't care about that,

302
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:10.400
like, godspeed, honestly, and
that's probably your best strategy. On one

303
00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:12.640
other perk that we've really kind of
failed to highlight because it's kind of just

304
00:23:12.680 --> 00:23:17.200
baked into this and a lot of
us that are subscribers just plain forget when

305
00:23:17.240 --> 00:23:21.279
you're a subscriber. Free shipping is
a big deal too. Never you never

306
00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:26.039
have to worry about reaching that free
shipping level and you never Yes, John,

307
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:32.519
that is the Emmanuel box set.
Some subliminal messaging there. You can

308
00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:40.680
tell I've been maybe diving into some
stuff. Yeah it's mutt I gosh,

309
00:23:40.720 --> 00:23:42.119
who's I talking to about it?
I went and showed them the little pin

310
00:23:42.119 --> 00:23:45.799
wheel across the stream the other day. Yeah, the free shipping is a

311
00:23:47.039 --> 00:23:48.799
is a big thing, and you
know, I know for a lot of

312
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:51.920
us, Like if you go to
orbit for one thing and you're like,

313
00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:53.839
oh, if I can just find
two other things I want and save that

314
00:23:55.000 --> 00:23:57.599
ten dollars, I'll be spending forty
more. But whatever it's you don't have

315
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:04.200
to worry about for that about it? Yeah, so its uh pepper Crab

316
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:07.400
does free shipping work outside of America
and may look into it if it does.

317
00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:11.240
I believe it does, depending on
how often you get your bundle,

318
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:17.599
but it all comes in that same
package eventually. Well, if you're a

319
00:24:17.599 --> 00:24:22.359
subscriber, they charge you a different
rate for international shipping and then that's bundled

320
00:24:22.359 --> 00:24:26.839
into your yep, you get free
shipping forever after that, which is like,

321
00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:30.680
okay, that's another thing. If
you're an international customer, Shipping prices

322
00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:33.680
are brutal, and like the idea
of having free shipping for the whole year

323
00:24:33.680 --> 00:24:34.680
on this stuff, like if you're
a fan, if you can afford it,

324
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:37.920
that's kind of a no brainer to
me, just for the shipping,

325
00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:42.160
Like that's pretty crazy that And I
think that's why one of these big things

326
00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:48.000
like losing altered innocence today hurts for
a lot of people because now if you're

327
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:52.200
an international purchaser getting an altered innocence
titles like oh well shoot, now it

328
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:56.279
goes from twenty dollars to you know, thirty five. Yeah, like me

329
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:00.960
and my endless privilege, apparently,
I'm just like, ugh, I'm so

330
00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:04.400
used to paying seventeen for their titles
and now I gotta pay five dollars shipping

331
00:25:04.400 --> 00:25:07.720
on some website. Well, it's
like that's that can be the deal breaker,

332
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:11.880
you know, and but for international
people it's even worse. Like at

333
00:25:11.880 --> 00:25:14.480
that point, it's an investment just
to get one of their titles. Like

334
00:25:14.519 --> 00:25:18.000
it really sucks, honestly it does. But we also don't know where they're

335
00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:21.279
going yet, and we don't know
they're pricing yet. Even like Fun City

336
00:25:21.400 --> 00:25:25.839
was less after they left VS than
I expected them to be. It wasn't

337
00:25:25.920 --> 00:25:30.400
the same base price as they were
on VS. Yeah, and they were

338
00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:32.920
on MVD, right, So,
like, at least there's tons of labels

339
00:25:32.920 --> 00:25:34.759
there that you can bundle together for
a free shipping sort of deal or at

340
00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:41.720
least a better value on your ship
exactly. All right, Here is the

341
00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:47.519
site pending to go in so as
we can see, it opens at twelve

342
00:25:47.599 --> 00:25:51.400
oh one, which is in about
six and a half minutes. Today,

343
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:56.160
we're gonna have three VS titles,
VSU and the Parker label titles. These

344
00:25:56.200 --> 00:25:59.119
other ones that are listed here,
these will come later in the week.

345
00:26:00.279 --> 00:26:03.720
They are saying, this is your
only chance to become a full year subscriber.

346
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:08.359
Emphasis on this because they will probably
still allow the half year subscription starting

347
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:12.279
in June. Yeah. I notice
changed a verbiage on that because they used

348
00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:15.079
to say to become a subscriber,
and I don't think that they meant it

349
00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:18.440
in the way that people took it, but I think it was confusing,

350
00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:22.799
and they're like, okay, yeah, it felt a little weird. We

351
00:26:22.880 --> 00:26:26.920
got discounts that are going up all
week this week, starting at noon refreshed.

352
00:26:27.319 --> 00:26:30.200
And a big reminder is if you're
looking at those points like we were

353
00:26:30.240 --> 00:26:33.440
just talking about, if you are
going on the discounted items, those get

354
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:38.000
you five times the number of the
Media Club points, so that helps quite

355
00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:45.359
a bit. And yeah, those
points they can do some pretty great stuff

356
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:49.839
when you're looking at discounting stuff down
the line. Let's see notice they've done

357
00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:56.599
away with the darkroom image. That
is a different image this time. Well,

358
00:26:56.640 --> 00:27:00.000
hang on a second, Ryan,
we can't let you off the whole.

359
00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:06.920
Here are you resubscribing? You noticed
that? Eh? Well you just

360
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:11.920
fucking let me talk because I'm I
can do that, but no, I

361
00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:18.200
may subscribe later this week. I
I'm let's see how transparent to be here.

362
00:27:18.279 --> 00:27:23.079
I'm waiting on lots of unpaid invoices
for someone's favorite right now. There's

363
00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:30.200
there's one person in particular that has
straight ignored me for three months of finished

364
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:34.200
work. Not great, No,
and uh yeah if I if I had

365
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:37.880
all that right now, I would
say yes immediately, but uh, it's

366
00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:41.400
a lot. Let's start naming names
here, all right, Let's get some

367
00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:45.640
public shame so Ryan can fund his
subscription. Okay, even better if if

368
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:49.440
you join the discord through our Patreon, I think, just based on the

369
00:27:49.440 --> 00:27:53.319
discourse yesterday, you can find out
who is not paying me because of Will's

370
00:27:53.720 --> 00:28:00.880
Caddy caddy attack on this this one
individual, I'm not paying attention. It

371
00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:03.640
was if you had if you didn't
know the situation, it was very passive

372
00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:10.680
aggressive. That's fun what you do. Last night for New Year's Eve,

373
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:15.319
I tried to keep my kids awake, and amazingly they both lasted till midnight.

374
00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:21.039
And then we're both awake before six
am. Damn it, I don't

375
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:29.880
understand my children. Yeah, I
wouldn't know, but yeah, we watched

376
00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:33.839
We watched a Disney documentary that was
on Disney Plus last night for their one

377
00:28:33.880 --> 00:28:37.160
hundred year thing. That was pretty
fun. Nice. We watched The Polar

378
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:42.920
Express. Don't ask me why Christmas
Eve. Nice. Sure, Yeah,

379
00:28:44.079 --> 00:28:48.599
it's terrible, Like it's so bad. Actually that's why we watched this because

380
00:28:48.599 --> 00:28:51.279
I watched it by myself a couple
of years ago and I was shocked at

381
00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:55.000
how awful and uncanny and like how
much of a nightmare film it is.

382
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.119
And I was like, I should
have watched this with people. And so

383
00:28:57.160 --> 00:29:00.519
this year it was kind of a
there were there were bummer things going on.

384
00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:06.599
We needed a pick me up,
cheer up sort of uncanny Valley horror

385
00:29:06.640 --> 00:29:11.359
show, break us at this depression
as it were. So that that worked

386
00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:18.720
pretty well. Yeah, that movie's
pretty damn creepy. I can admit it's

387
00:29:18.720 --> 00:29:22.799
one of the strangest films I've ever
seen, like, like very I'm not

388
00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:29.039
exaggerating, yep. One big thing
I wanted to remind everybody too is when

389
00:29:29.119 --> 00:29:32.359
we have the site open here in
just a couple of minutes. Uh,

390
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:37.960
you're not necessarily subscribing blind. Generally, they will give some vague hints but

391
00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:42.920
also just plain reveal like eight titles
coming across this year. So when we

392
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:47.759
last year, which was like a
big one super early too, I did

393
00:29:47.799 --> 00:29:51.400
not expect them to reveal it.
So when we go in, we will

394
00:29:51.400 --> 00:29:55.960
see all of January, of course, but also we'll probably see like one

395
00:29:56.079 --> 00:30:00.200
thing from October November. We'll probably
see some very big hints for oct Over

396
00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:03.720
in November, but they'll reveal like, hey, we're doing this box set

397
00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:07.680
in July or something like that.
So there will be a lot that we

398
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:14.000
can generally see. Yeah, yeah, iice, what's going on? Been

399
00:30:14.079 --> 00:30:18.880
a while, my dude? Hello? Hello? Did they really? Yes?

400
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:26.319
They absolutely did. Yeah, we
knew about Prophecy all year, David.

401
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:30.720
The vague hints always sound amazing.
That copyh Yeah, they are great

402
00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:34.240
at copywriting in vinegar syndrome. Yeah, I think it's Justin who does that

403
00:30:34.359 --> 00:30:37.960
right generally speaking? Uh, I
don't. I mean I think it used

404
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:41.079
to be, but they've gotten so
big. I don't think he does it

405
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:44.000
for all of it anymore. Yeah, he at least does the partner labels.

406
00:30:44.000 --> 00:30:47.240
I think but whoever, they got
good writers in there doing a good

407
00:30:47.319 --> 00:30:56.039
job. We are down to our
final minute, Big Things VSU coming today.

408
00:30:56.079 --> 00:31:00.960
We haven't even gotten a single hint. That's yeah, very interesting and

409
00:31:02.039 --> 00:31:06.960
those are generally big titles. So
yeah, although we get to hit about

410
00:31:06.960 --> 00:31:08.160
show Girls last time, I don't
think we got to hit about that.

411
00:31:08.920 --> 00:31:15.480
Yeah, we got like, oh
uh we did. Sidekicks is the one

412
00:31:15.559 --> 00:31:18.079
like Sidekicks is the one that we
didn't get a hint for, right,

413
00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:23.519
I'm not sure to be honest,
Yeah, it's hard to remember. There's

414
00:31:23.519 --> 00:31:30.039
there's so many sales and hints and
all that crap to remember. It's constant

415
00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:34.680
yep, which to their credit,
they know what they're doing. Twenty seconds.

416
00:31:37.400 --> 00:31:40.359
I'm excited. I don't seen it
because it's early for me and I

417
00:31:40.400 --> 00:31:44.319
haven't finished my coffee, but I
am excited. Uh, we're gonna be

418
00:31:44.319 --> 00:31:47.079
talking about something in just a few
minutes that I will prove to you that

419
00:31:47.240 --> 00:31:52.039
many people are also very stoked on
prophecy. But first we're gonna dive into

420
00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:57.880
this because we are about to open
Hell. Yeah, here we go Southern

421
00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:04.119
Comfort for kick. Here's the horrible
doctor Hitchcock that we knew about that was

422
00:32:04.160 --> 00:32:10.839
coming four K Forgotten Jalli Volume six, Santete and San Tete two. That

423
00:32:12.079 --> 00:32:16.400
is interesting, So the VSU is
Southern comfort Man, I'm gonna dive into

424
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:22.759
that one. That might be the
Panther tease right there. And let's look

425
00:32:22.759 --> 00:32:30.799
at the year before we dive into
everything else. Twenty twenty three was our

426
00:32:30.079 --> 00:32:35.880
biggest year or sorry, busiest year
yet. We unleashed all these titles and

427
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:39.039
our outrageous ten film Lost Picture Show
set twenty twenty four. We're confident your

428
00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:43.680
mind will be blown even further as
we dig deeper into the rarest, weirdest,

429
00:32:43.759 --> 00:32:49.720
craziest, most unexpected genre cinema ever
made by Now you've seen the January

430
00:32:50.680 --> 00:32:54.839
sets. We got the Horrible Doctor
Hitchcock. We've got the Death Carrys a

431
00:32:54.880 --> 00:33:00.920
Cane, Bloodstained Shadow, and Naked
You Die in the Forgotten y'all set presented

432
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:06.480
on disc with its English language cut
intact for the first time Indonesian horror with

433
00:33:06.559 --> 00:33:10.160
Susannah starring Duo Santete one and two. Interesting. I didn't know if he

434
00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:15.680
has had those. As the year
continues, look forward to Saal Bass's landmark

435
00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:22.640
sci fi masterpiece Phase four on UHD
Wow. The incredible Greek art horse Singabhorese

00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:29.039
sling on Blu ray and featuring a
brand new four K restoration. Yeah,

437
00:33:29.079 --> 00:33:34.039
that's a big deal. That is
a big deal. Final confirmed, definitely

438
00:33:34.079 --> 00:33:38.559
not being delayed again. Intrepidos Punks

huge titles from Paramount, plus more

00:33:57.839 --> 00:34:08.199
marks that means something huh So yeah. Also in Trepido's Punks No Sparatu,

443
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:13.480
a patron subscriber friend of mine was
like telling me, Hey, this film

444
00:34:13.519 --> 00:34:15.599
is fucking amazing. I really hope
VS does it, so shout out to

445
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:20.920
you. You got your wish.
Trepidos Punks has been announced I believe twice

446
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:25.800
from VS, and it's finally coming. That's pretty damn cool. So yeah,

447
00:34:25.840 --> 00:34:30.480
looking throughout the year, we've got
January Visible February Phase four four create

448
00:34:30.599 --> 00:34:36.960
four K, Never on Blue,
early sixties Italian horror three film Spanish Giallo

449
00:34:36.960 --> 00:34:42.239
set March is four K debut.
I have an acclaimed sixties horror anthology.

450
00:34:42.559 --> 00:34:45.280
We should be able to figure that
one out. There wasn't a ton of

451
00:34:45.320 --> 00:34:50.679
anthologies in the sixties. Singapore Sling
on Blu Ray exclusively restored by VS,

452
00:34:50.760 --> 00:34:55.039
which means there's probably another release coming. That's why they have to say exclusively

453
00:34:55.079 --> 00:35:00.800
restored and then never on Disc.
Eighties Italian Horre double feature April Never on

454
00:35:00.880 --> 00:35:06.519
Disc, Slasher four K and English
Friendly Blu Ray debut of a eighties Italian

455
00:35:06.559 --> 00:35:12.760
horror and eighties Hong Kong Action.
May is Eighties Hong Kong Action four K

456
00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:17.559
double feature. Jesus, this is
insane. It's like, come on Homegrown

457
00:35:17.599 --> 00:35:22.440
Horror Volume three with Haunted Wien and
two other regional rarities plus two surprise four

458
00:35:22.519 --> 00:35:28.039
ks. That's insane for four k's
and a box set for May that's fucking

459
00:35:28.119 --> 00:35:31.800
nuts. But also I adore the
Homegrown Horror sets. I've loved both of

460
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:37.039
them, and I'm just so excited
for this third one. Jesus Christ.

461
00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:42.039
Wow, Yeah, I mean I
thought there was maybe a sliver of a

462
00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:44.639
chance that, like at that low
price point, because we didn't even talk

463
00:35:44.639 --> 00:35:46.400
about that. If you've already subscribed, it's only eight fifty when you get

464
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:52.599
your coupon, which is insane.
I thought there was a chance. When

465
00:35:52.599 --> 00:35:54.039
we got this breakdown, it's like, oh, well, that's why it's

466
00:35:54.079 --> 00:35:58.760
not not quite up to the standards
as usual. But it seems, I

467
00:35:58.760 --> 00:36:01.280
don't know, just as good to
me just minus the ten film set right

468
00:36:01.360 --> 00:36:07.920
like shit. June is gonna be
partners only month. July is Intrepidos Punk's

469
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:14.800
Blu Ray double feature plus two other
horror and action releases. August will be

470
00:36:14.960 --> 00:36:19.800
a Seventies Driving Horror Classic on four
K, Sleazy Hong Kong Cat three film

471
00:36:19.880 --> 00:36:24.559
and a wild Paramount euro Sleeze Rarity. September Eighties Horror Classic on four K,

472
00:36:24.760 --> 00:36:30.360
Yallo Classic on four K, Grimy
Mexican Horror. And then October,

473
00:36:30.400 --> 00:36:34.440
which October November is where they start
getting pretty crazy. October is gonna have

474
00:36:34.599 --> 00:36:39.440
Seventies Horror Masterpiece on four K,
Forgotten, a Jolli Late eighties edition Never

475
00:36:39.559 --> 00:36:44.960
on disc Slasher, and a Corpsemania
four K Blu Ray combo. And then

476
00:36:45.039 --> 00:36:50.480
November a horror box set and an
epic four K Blu Ray debut plus two

477
00:36:50.519 --> 00:36:54.280
secret surprise titles. Now that MSRP
is fairly high. I wonder how many

478
00:36:54.320 --> 00:37:00.559
films are in that horror box set. That's a good quest question, I

479
00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:07.599
mean, with it hitting two forty
five. Okay, So I have a

480
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:15.239
couple thoughts, a couple maybe questions. Phase four I'd have to look that

481
00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:16.119
up. I don't think i'd know
what that is, but I might.

482
00:37:16.199 --> 00:37:20.400
I might recognize a poster if I
saw it. It rings a bell,

483
00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:23.719
you would famous poster, Okay.
Is it the one with like the hole

484
00:37:23.719 --> 00:37:27.719
in the hand, Yes, I
believe the right one. Okay, I

485
00:37:27.719 --> 00:37:32.000
know what that is? Then?
Cool? Uh. Singapore Sling is one

486
00:37:32.000 --> 00:37:36.880
that I think switches a death.
Nerve was the one most recently that was

487
00:37:36.920 --> 00:37:39.119
talking it up and it looks amazing
and it was on the Criterion channel and

488
00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:46.639
it was on my watch list for
sure. Uh. Corpse Mania. I

489
00:37:46.639 --> 00:37:49.920
don't know what that is either,
if I'm being honest, is that something

490
00:37:50.320 --> 00:37:53.280
bigger than I'm taking. It's a
big Hong Kong title. Okay. So

491
00:37:53.400 --> 00:37:58.320
the main observation I have here is
they seem to have tripled down on international

492
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:06.679
cinema, which is fucking sick.
I'm all about it. Yeah, forgot

493
00:38:06.679 --> 00:38:10.159
all about these for a moment.
Saturn's Core doing Age of Demon's Bleeding Skull.

494
00:38:10.280 --> 00:38:15.559
Brand New Partner label doing Blonde Death. Connie is doing Cleaner's Art label

495
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:21.440
doing Cracking Up. That sounds interesting. Yellowville Pictures does Dogs Don't Wear Pants.

496
00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:24.159
Highly recommend this film. Have you
seen Dogs Don't Wear Pants yet?

497
00:38:24.199 --> 00:38:28.760
Never heard of it? What a
great title. It is an incredible movie.

498
00:38:29.039 --> 00:38:34.599
Highly highly recommend it. Film Movement. Film Movement the early films of

499
00:38:35.159 --> 00:38:39.760
I Believe So, Ashgar Ferrati Dancing
in the Dust and Beautiful City. Altered

500
00:38:39.800 --> 00:38:46.280
Innocence, Gay USA snapshots of nineteen
seventies LGBT Resistance. Yeah, damn,

501
00:38:46.320 --> 00:38:52.199
what a going out. Man etr
Media Never Surrender, a Galaxy Quest documentary.

502
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:57.559
We kind of knew that was coming. Canadian International Pictures is doing One

503
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:02.760
Man Factory twenty five sex and broadcasting
a film about WFM you that will sell

504
00:39:02.840 --> 00:39:07.480
well. I'm sure. Altered Innocence
doing The Strangler. We knew that one

505
00:39:07.559 --> 00:39:09.079
was coming. They've been hyping that
up, and then I was looking at

506
00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:15.119
their style doing it looks amazing and
the tune fuck, yes, I'm glad

507
00:39:15.119 --> 00:39:19.599
I'm live for this one because I
was so I literally like lost my shit

508
00:39:19.639 --> 00:39:22.559
when they didn't announced it on your
show. I like, this is one

509
00:39:22.559 --> 00:39:25.039
of my top top Blu Ray wish
list films. I love this film so

510
00:39:25.159 --> 00:39:29.119
much. I will go to bat
for it for anyone. Like, if

511
00:39:29.159 --> 00:39:30.559
you don't like it, I don't
know, shoot me a message and I

512
00:39:30.599 --> 00:39:34.480
won't refund you, but I'll tell
you you're wrong. It's really fucking good.

513
00:39:37.519 --> 00:39:40.199
Uh. Actually, I think you
had that as one of your your

514
00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:44.480
wish list titles on Unsung Horrors,
Right, I did. I wanted a

515
00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:46.760
whole Bill Plimpton set because he has
a lot of films that are great and

516
00:39:47.000 --> 00:39:50.760
none of them have good releases.
But you know what, if I got

517
00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:52.960
to take the piecemeal, I'll take
it, like because they rule. Wait,

518
00:39:53.000 --> 00:39:55.599
I want to see his are his
short some of his short films on

519
00:39:55.639 --> 00:39:59.440
here? Because I've seen a lot
of them. Hell, yes they are

520
00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:04.719
one, two, three, four, four of these. Guard Dog is

521
00:40:04.760 --> 00:40:07.000
really fun. Your face is good. How they're all good? Like his

522
00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:13.400
shorts are amazing. Yeah, Clipton's
incredible, And I love that slip.

523
00:40:14.440 --> 00:40:16.400
It's a very Clipton slip. I
mean, I'll have to look at the

524
00:40:16.400 --> 00:40:20.440
old bank account, but that's going
straight in the cart as soon as possible.

525
00:40:21.800 --> 00:40:25.079
All right, we're going to dive
into some of these specifically for the

526
00:40:25.159 --> 00:40:31.599
VSU oh Man. Southern Comfort is
a pretty big title. Hold on real

527
00:40:31.639 --> 00:40:35.719
quick, film movement. I've recognized
them and I'm now looking at their label.

528
00:40:35.760 --> 00:40:37.039
It's because you covered them on the
last show. Right, they're doing

529
00:40:37.079 --> 00:40:43.840
like a set of sorts coming up? Uh? Is that them? Or

530
00:40:43.880 --> 00:40:46.320
am I thinking of someone else because
I know them from somewhere, but I

531
00:40:46.320 --> 00:40:52.760
don't know what it might have been. Then let me take a look right

532
00:40:52.840 --> 00:41:00.840
quick, because the somebody is doing
that set that umbrella announced also leading skull.

533
00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:04.320
I wasn't aware was like doing their
own releases. I thought they were

534
00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:08.559
kind of I thought that they were
kind of like like something weird. Doesn't

535
00:41:08.599 --> 00:41:12.039
seem to do their own releases anymore. They seem to just like collab with

536
00:41:12.079 --> 00:41:15.320
other people. I thought that they
were just like an AGFA collaborative entity of

537
00:41:15.320 --> 00:41:23.400
sorts. They were. Sibner is
pointing out the numbers on the film movement

538
00:41:23.440 --> 00:41:30.360
title. Yeah, let's take a
look. It must be pretty low already.

539
00:41:31.280 --> 00:41:37.320
It looks about right, one thousand
units and nine hundred and six.

540
00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:39.920
Yeah, they've only sold thirty one
of them. Maybe he thought it was

541
00:41:39.920 --> 00:41:44.519
a two thousand print, or maybe
he's looking at the standard edition because it's

542
00:41:44.519 --> 00:41:49.400
like four sixty one, Nick Newland. If you go and email Vinegar Syndrome,

543
00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:53.039
they will give you that refund.
I guarantee it. They do it

544
00:41:53.119 --> 00:42:00.800
every year. Christienco so glad to
see Worsling getting an upgrade. Much love

545
00:42:00.880 --> 00:42:04.039
to Synapse for putting it out on
DVD in the day, but that film

546
00:42:04.079 --> 00:42:07.119
needs an upgrade. Could you so
much more context and recognition? Hell yall

547
00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:14.119
shout out, Chris, how you
doing, Anthony? It's the tune?

548
00:42:16.639 --> 00:42:21.400
Well, once again we have a
slate of partner Labels releases where I'm like,

549
00:42:21.440 --> 00:42:28.159
well, I would like all of
them, but yeah, unfortunately,

550
00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:34.599
all right, Southern Comfort. So
looking at this, this is a big

551
00:42:34.639 --> 00:42:37.719
Walter Hill title. For those that
have never heard of or seen it,

552
00:42:37.119 --> 00:42:42.719
Oh that's my question. I might
be dating myself again or exposing myself as

553
00:42:42.760 --> 00:42:45.719
a fraud or something I've never I
don't to my knowledge, I don't think

554
00:42:45.719 --> 00:42:46.760
I've heard of it, and I
don't know what it is. It was

555
00:42:47.280 --> 00:42:50.960
a Shout factory released back in the
day that went out of print a few

556
00:42:51.039 --> 00:42:53.880
years ago, so people have been
speculating it should be coming back. Nice,

557
00:42:54.920 --> 00:43:00.800
So this is going to be their
next VSU four K with HDR commentary

558
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:06.039
track with Walter Chaw Nice. New
interview with Walter Hill that's seventeen minutes.

559
00:43:06.079 --> 00:43:09.199
New featurette with the editor and the
assistant editor. New interview with the costumer

560
00:43:09.280 --> 00:43:13.679
Dan Moore, a new interview with
the film historian Wayne Byrne on Southern Comfort

561
00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:16.159
and the legacy of Walter Hill.
And then a whole bunch of archival featuring

562
00:43:16.199 --> 00:43:21.239
interviews with a bunch of people.
We got a twenty page booklet with an

563
00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:25.719
essay by Brian Brims. Okay,
I'm looking at it. It's fairly popular,

564
00:43:25.920 --> 00:43:30.480
very highly acclaimed, and the post
on letterbox is sick. Walter Hill

565
00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:36.440
is a pretty big director. Yes, so nice. Yeah, definitely one

566
00:43:36.679 --> 00:43:40.679
take a look. Blake is saying
he subscribed and it's not showing sub prices

567
00:43:40.920 --> 00:43:46.119
anyone else. I would suggest just
before you start emailing or something, log

568
00:43:46.159 --> 00:43:53.840
out and log back in and see
if that helps. Yeah, good description

569
00:43:53.920 --> 00:43:59.519
here. Nick Meede says Southern Comfort
is like Deliverance meets the Warriors. I've

570
00:43:59.519 --> 00:44:04.960
never seen warriors. Perhaps times for
that, Yeah, perhaps I waited for

571
00:44:05.079 --> 00:44:08.079
the defenitive is now out, so
I'm good. But deliverance I love,

572
00:44:08.639 --> 00:44:13.920
it's great. John says they raised
the price for media club slips from one

573
00:44:13.960 --> 00:44:17.840
thousand to fifteen hundred points. That's
kind of fucked up. That's a big

574
00:44:17.880 --> 00:44:25.800
increase, kind of fucked up.
Stan says, this is better programming than

575
00:44:25.960 --> 00:44:30.719
some old parade. I totally forgot
there was a parade today. I'm really

576
00:44:30.760 --> 00:44:36.400
bad about holidays or generally just mainstream
society in general, so I don't know

577
00:44:36.480 --> 00:44:43.039
much about that. Is there a
parade, the Rose Parade? It's nothing

578
00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:45.760
to me. I gotta be so
honest. Whereas Pasadena, California is hosting

579
00:44:45.920 --> 00:44:52.880
the Rose Parade. It's neat,
wild, horrible. Doctor Hitchcock is presented

580
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:58.159
with two unique picture edits, comprising
three different versions of the film. All

581
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:01.320
of them are on four K,
so we have the original Italian version with

582
00:45:01.400 --> 00:45:07.000
Italian language credits. It's offered with
both English and Italian language sound mixes.

583
00:45:07.239 --> 00:45:10.679
The alternate US version is presented with
the English language mix and original US credit

584
00:45:10.760 --> 00:45:15.280
sequence and title card. Historically,
there were never any editorial differences between the

585
00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:20.119
English language and Italian cuts and the
Italian language version, other than the language

586
00:45:20.119 --> 00:45:23.280
of the opening credits themselves, while
we are presenting the Italians language credits with

587
00:45:23.320 --> 00:45:29.199
both language tracks specifically on the Italian
version. The English Raptist title sequence card

588
00:45:29.239 --> 00:45:32.039
can be found on the Blu Ray
bonus features. See this is the kind

589
00:45:32.079 --> 00:45:37.199
of thing that always impresses me that
they go to that depth to make sure

590
00:45:37.239 --> 00:45:40.280
that they're getting everything. Look,
look, I know that it's been it

591
00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:45.360
feels like a little bit fashionable to
shit on vinegar syndrome a little bit,

592
00:45:46.679 --> 00:45:50.079
but look, if they've decided they're
going to do a title, they're going

593
00:45:50.119 --> 00:45:52.599
to do it right. Like,
I don't think I've ever seen one of

594
00:45:52.599 --> 00:45:54.719
their titles and been like, it
really should have had this too, write

595
00:45:55.239 --> 00:45:59.760
they kind of dropped the ball on
this. It's like you might not like

596
00:45:59.800 --> 00:46:05.559
it, but they they did a
good job with it. So extras on

597
00:46:05.599 --> 00:46:08.559
this are going to be very different
and for people that maybe did not know.

598
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:13.519
Radiance just put this out last year
in the UK, so this is

599
00:46:14.840 --> 00:46:16.639
possibly a double dip for some people. But this is gonna have a lot

600
00:46:16.679 --> 00:46:21.639
of new features on this. We've
got a commentary track with Augenie Erica Alani,

601
00:46:21.719 --> 00:46:27.280
Troy Howarth and Nathaniel Thompson. Interview
with Marcelo Avalone, interview with screenwriter

602
00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:31.039
Ornesto Gustaldi Augenio Erica Lani did all
of those, by the way, and

603
00:46:31.079 --> 00:46:37.119
then maker Marcelo Avaloni on Italian Horne
his experiences of working within the genre.

604
00:46:37.320 --> 00:46:44.400
That's got to be really cool.
And then Barbaras does Sleccene. I'm sorry,

605
00:46:44.480 --> 00:46:47.559
I'm just fully interrupting you, but
I saw Anthony's comment about Mellow Scene,

606
00:46:47.599 --> 00:46:52.079
so I wanted to take a look. Their media club is, I

607
00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:57.800
believe a little bit different. There
is a Marylyn Jess skate deck with her

608
00:46:57.880 --> 00:47:02.159
full naked body and its glory,
so don't show it, but take a

609
00:47:02.159 --> 00:47:09.880
litt in another tab. I've never
wanted a skate deck in my life.

610
00:47:10.119 --> 00:47:23.360
Let me tell you we're getting close. Holy shit, wow, I uh

611
00:47:23.480 --> 00:47:30.079
yeah, I did not expect that
they just have the three things. So

612
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:38.519
yeah, they have POGs as well. Right on what fun Tony's saying.

613
00:47:38.559 --> 00:47:42.679
It's four fifteen in Australia. What
better way to wake up than watching two

614
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:47.400
of my favorite people discuss vinegar syndrome. Thanks Tony. I keep getting pop

615
00:47:47.480 --> 00:47:51.239
ups being like, hey, idiot, make sure you get your subscription before

616
00:47:51.239 --> 00:47:55.599
you buy anything. Yeah, me
too, really trying. Look, look,

617
00:47:55.639 --> 00:47:59.119
people will get confused. It's okay, okay, back to what you

618
00:47:59.159 --> 00:48:01.039
were saying. Body told me recently
I look like Barbara Steele. And let

619
00:48:01.079 --> 00:48:06.320
me tell you what a compliment that
was. I could see that. Yeah,

620
00:48:06.719 --> 00:48:08.840
I could definitely see that, especially
guy. Thank you. Well,

621
00:48:08.880 --> 00:48:14.960
I've gotten that. And the one
I get a lot now is holy shit,

622
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:17.760
I forgot her name, Christina Ricci, which is another big compliment.

623
00:48:20.039 --> 00:48:24.199
So so yeah, new Malu scene
title is up as well, called stud

624
00:48:24.280 --> 00:48:30.280
Hunters. This is coming on the
Quality X line. Wow, screen caps

625
00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:36.079
are definitely not safe for YouTube.
Uh, let's see. This is gonna

626
00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:43.000
have new audio interview with Misty Reagan, moderated by Casey Scott. And that's

627
00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:47.320
all that's listed. But it looks
like a really fun slipcover and like a

628
00:48:47.320 --> 00:48:53.199
really decent movie, very eighties punk
type of movie. Yeah, yeah,

629
00:48:53.239 --> 00:49:00.440
for sure. I think that's the
first screen cap I've seen from a syndroome

630
00:49:00.480 --> 00:49:06.719
with a strap on. Well,
I'm only surprised in that it's taken this

631
00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:10.360
long. Sounds like they've been slacking. Yeah, there it is, and

632
00:49:10.400 --> 00:49:15.840
a grocery cart in the same image. Damn it. Nicomedes Nicomedies, pointing

633
00:49:15.840 --> 00:49:23.400
out I looked like Barber Steel,
not at all. I disagree at the

634
00:49:23.480 --> 00:49:29.800
right angle in the dark, Yes, it's dark with a wig. Come

635
00:49:29.840 --> 00:49:35.079
on, Forgotten Jolly. Volume six. We named the titles here. We

636
00:49:35.159 --> 00:49:39.119
got Death Carries a Cane, Naked
You Die, and the blood Stained Shadow

637
00:49:39.239 --> 00:49:45.639
Cow. We're really at volume six
already, Okay, Jello is not really

638
00:49:45.719 --> 00:49:49.400
my cup of tea, to be
honest. To be completely honest, it

639
00:49:49.559 --> 00:49:52.679
generally is a genre that I struggled
to get into, and I wasn't super

640
00:49:52.719 --> 00:49:55.039
into the last set, but I'm
trying. I really want to be in

641
00:49:55.119 --> 00:49:58.840
Najallo films. You know. I
don't like not liking things. That's not

642
00:49:58.880 --> 00:50:01.639
fun for me. But I really
like this artwork. I like the color

643
00:50:01.679 --> 00:50:05.079
scheme a lot. It looks like
some Scooby Doo shit. I'm here for

644
00:50:05.119 --> 00:50:10.360
it. Yeah. So on Death
Carey's a Game, we get a commentary

645
00:50:10.400 --> 00:50:16.239
track with Eugenio Troy and Nathaniel Again. Interview with the editor a Eugenio Alabiso

646
00:50:17.079 --> 00:50:22.119
on Naked You Die. We've got
commentary track with the Stang. They're all

647
00:50:22.159 --> 00:50:27.880
over this today with the same three
dudes. Interview with Sally Smith, interview

648
00:50:27.920 --> 00:50:32.159
with Eleonora Brown and interview with Melissa
a Longo. Video essay by Mike Foster

649
00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:37.760
on Naked You Die and the early
days of the Jallo film Interesting vide usa

650
00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:42.000
by Pierre Maria Bacci on the lesser
known films of Naked You Die director Antonio

651
00:50:42.039 --> 00:50:49.760
Margaretti aka Anthony Dawson, and then
Bloodstained Shadow. Geez, there on all

652
00:50:49.800 --> 00:50:54.320
three of these films. So if
you like au Jeni O, Troy Nathaniel,

653
00:50:54.320 --> 00:50:58.800
you're gonna love this box set.
Interview with the director, interview with

654
00:50:58.800 --> 00:51:05.920
a screenwriter, a couple actresses,
an actor, production assistant musician Audio Seminetti

655
00:51:06.039 --> 00:51:12.039
is interviewed on that one. Interesting, So this is maybe a first.

656
00:51:12.039 --> 00:51:15.559
I already have the blunt the Bloodstained
Shadow from eighty eight films. Oh,

657
00:51:15.599 --> 00:51:19.800
look at that, I've seen it. So I guess I'll just compare features

658
00:51:19.840 --> 00:51:22.480
and see which one I like.
But I might be able to sell something

659
00:51:22.519 --> 00:51:29.519
off of this, which is fun. Yeah, that's that's a fun looking

660
00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:35.679
box set. Man, This one
sounds crazy. So Santete and Santete two.

661
00:51:36.280 --> 00:51:40.679
This is an Indonesian horror starring Susanna
And for those that don't know,

662
00:51:40.760 --> 00:51:45.880
Susannah is a big name, and
there's quite a few Susannah films. I've

663
00:51:46.079 --> 00:51:50.800
heard we might be seeing some more
of those coming in the next year,

664
00:51:50.920 --> 00:51:54.559
not necessarily from VS, but from
some other labels. I have a guess.

665
00:51:57.039 --> 00:52:00.000
Let's see these boasts, not just
over the top or set pieces,

666
00:52:00.320 --> 00:52:06.280
but an abundance of slimy creatures,
wild plot twist, and even impromptu musical

667
00:52:06.360 --> 00:52:12.320
numbers. Yay Indonesia. Vinegar Sin
presents this hugely popular set of Southeast Asian

668
00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:15.280
horror classics on disc for the first
time in the US, restored from the

669
00:52:15.320 --> 00:52:21.800
thirty five millimeter negatives. And we've
got a commentary for the first film.

670
00:52:22.119 --> 00:52:24.760
But that looks to be it for
special features. But it's a double feature.

671
00:52:28.079 --> 00:52:32.039
It might have been harder to find
well that and I guarantee you the

672
00:52:32.079 --> 00:52:38.119
restoration was probably pretty pricey for this. Yeah nope. Oh, there's the

673
00:52:38.199 --> 00:52:43.440
image that was hinted yesterday. It's
a big one. Anthony has commented something

674
00:52:43.480 --> 00:52:46.480
that I'm a little bit confused about. Maybe you can parse through it better

675
00:52:46.519 --> 00:52:51.920
than me. The Maryland Jes Deck
is actually the bridgeit le Hay deck photographed

676
00:52:52.039 --> 00:52:57.440
originally sold through Pulse Store. So
Pulse Video in France did their fundraiser,

677
00:52:57.519 --> 00:53:00.880
kind of like a kickstarter for the
Brigitte la Hey and Marilyn Jess sets that

678
00:53:00.920 --> 00:53:06.760
they put out through Vinegar Syndrome and
Ocean. But on top of that,

679
00:53:07.320 --> 00:53:12.440
uh, they had done a deck
before, so I'm wondering if they use

680
00:53:12.519 --> 00:53:19.159
the wrong one hm Vie in the
picture. I think so, is that

681
00:53:19.199 --> 00:53:22.000
what you're saying? Okay, Yeah, the Vinegar Syndrome light is back in

682
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:24.880
stock and those were going for crazy
money on eBay. So that's funny.

683
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:30.159
Yeah, that's good. I guess. Oh, I guess Film Movement has

684
00:53:30.159 --> 00:53:35.199
a bunch of stuff up already.
I guess wan look at merch at all,

685
00:53:35.239 --> 00:53:43.119
did we? There's so much to
look at. Yeah, oh nice,

686
00:53:43.239 --> 00:53:45.360
Yeah, there's like their whole catalog
is here. What's some great stuff?

687
00:53:45.360 --> 00:53:50.320
Oh? Got it? Okay,
real quick. The Reflecting Skin and

688
00:53:50.360 --> 00:53:54.239
Hannahbee, both of those films are
amazing and you should get them. Person

689
00:53:54.320 --> 00:53:58.440
listening to this, Oh wow,
yeah, they've got all of them here.

690
00:53:58.719 --> 00:54:02.920
Jeez. So am I too?
Expect that these will not be reissued

691
00:54:04.199 --> 00:54:08.599
with fancy slips and stuff. Likely
not likely not, but but you can

692
00:54:08.639 --> 00:54:15.320
get that fancy free shipping twenty seven
ninety nine, though although the reflecting skin

693
00:54:15.360 --> 00:54:20.800
doesn't really go on sale ever,
it's always price, even in the Amazon.

694
00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:22.599
I guess you're right. I don't
know. I mean I don't I

695
00:54:22.639 --> 00:54:25.480
haven't bought my subscription yet, so
maybe someone else can tell me if these

696
00:54:25.559 --> 00:54:30.760
are somehow included in that, since
they I guess guarantee they won't be.

697
00:54:30.960 --> 00:54:37.719
Yeah. No, so maybe not
the best price, but still cool.

698
00:54:39.159 --> 00:54:44.199
Yeah, we'll have merch. There's
a bunch of people that are not showing

699
00:54:44.239 --> 00:54:49.880
subscriber prices, which is concerning.
Yeah, I'm not showing anything really new

700
00:54:49.960 --> 00:54:55.119
under merch unless I'm blind. Forbidden
Zone paperback book? Is that new?

701
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:01.480
I'm not sure that film a lot. I don't remember there being a book

702
00:55:01.519 --> 00:55:07.239
here, but that's fun. I
might get that actually. Inland Empire paperback

703
00:55:07.280 --> 00:55:10.440
book? Wait wait wait, wait
wa wait? What is Fireflies Press?

704
00:55:10.599 --> 00:55:19.440
Is this new? Or did I
miss something? Doesn't see they have a

705
00:55:19.440 --> 00:55:22.159
Pasolini book here? I mean this
shit has already sold out, which is

706
00:55:22.199 --> 00:55:24.519
crazy. Yeah, met a few
of these at least, like Goodbye,

707
00:55:24.559 --> 00:55:29.280
Dragging In and I Believe in the
Inland Empire and the Pasolini We're all here

708
00:55:29.599 --> 00:55:31.840
last month? Okay, Well,
I totally miss that, but that's really

709
00:55:31.840 --> 00:55:40.519
cool. And Cycle Apocalypse what a
great name. I don't think those others

710
00:55:40.519 --> 00:55:46.599
are new. Yep, there's the
Led and they have the now playing standback

711
00:55:46.599 --> 00:55:52.480
in stock, which I'm still considering
getting for practical purposes of anything. If

712
00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:55.800
you go to the Film Movement website, those blues are only twenty bucks,

713
00:55:57.119 --> 00:56:00.360
so although you might have to pay
for shipping if you're not a might have

714
00:56:00.440 --> 00:56:07.840
even out. Let's say we look
at the deals. I see we have

715
00:56:07.880 --> 00:56:17.599
some questions on that already deal Daily
Deals. Somebody asked if where is it?

716
00:56:17.679 --> 00:56:25.719
Fifteen bucks? Not bad? Fortures
of America I thought was pretty fun.

717
00:56:27.519 --> 00:56:30.159
It's it's silly. Nicholas says,
is beware children at play? The

718
00:56:30.159 --> 00:56:35.159
Iceman comic or Mutant Hunt worth getting. I've not seen bewill children Beware children

719
00:56:35.159 --> 00:56:37.199
at play? But the Iceman comic
is one of my top recommendations from that

720
00:56:37.280 --> 00:56:40.840
year. It's incredible good. Mutant
Hunt is one of my bottom recommendations of

721
00:56:40.840 --> 00:56:44.639
that year. I thought it was
awful. So those are my opinions.

722
00:56:44.679 --> 00:56:47.559
Take them for what you will,
but that's how I feel about. Nick

723
00:56:47.639 --> 00:56:51.360
says, no, new Degausser,
I don't think we're supposed to get any

724
00:56:51.599 --> 00:56:57.280
from them this entire week. They
didn't hint at that is interesting. I'm

725
00:56:57.280 --> 00:57:02.039
interested in Fortress of America, isn't
there? It had some connection where someone

726
00:57:02.159 --> 00:57:06.199
something I watched had a connection with
it. I don't remember what. It

727
00:57:06.239 --> 00:57:08.840
was. Distributed by Trauma was one
thing. That's right. It was on

728
00:57:08.840 --> 00:57:13.360
one of the special features. They
were talking about it because I've been watching

729
00:57:13.400 --> 00:57:17.239
a lot of trauma stuff with the
October releases. Yeah, uh yeah,

730
00:57:17.280 --> 00:57:22.920
Ice Man Chemuth is worth it.
Fortuns in America is worth it. Mutant

731
00:57:22.000 --> 00:57:25.960
Hunt is pretty silly but potentially working. I mean, people might like that

732
00:57:27.000 --> 00:57:30.000
sort of thing more than me.
If you are into like I don't know,

733
00:57:30.480 --> 00:57:32.760
how do I say this with being
nice about it. If you're into

734
00:57:32.760 --> 00:57:37.320
bad movies like terrible acting and like
one set, I don't know, like

735
00:57:37.519 --> 00:57:43.840
that kind of thing, evil laugh
I like a lot. I thought that

736
00:57:43.880 --> 00:57:47.320
one was a lot of fun.
Blood Delirium, I love Blood Delirium Wild.

737
00:57:47.440 --> 00:57:52.000
People need to check that for sure. All right. Now, this

738
00:57:52.039 --> 00:57:57.239
brings me to a question because we
have three altered Innocence titles here and historically

739
00:57:57.280 --> 00:58:01.639
speaking, one of it, Yeah, one wanna label leaves. They put

740
00:58:01.719 --> 00:58:07.159
up the slips for like twelve bucks
and then the standards for ten I think,

741
00:58:08.239 --> 00:58:12.880
I mean even cultures check right now
ten dollars. Yeah, we can

742
00:58:12.960 --> 00:58:16.719
check that right now. Let's see, so fifteen is obviously they're worth it.

743
00:58:16.800 --> 00:58:21.880
But you know, maybe with our
discussion earlier about training us to wait,

744
00:58:22.239 --> 00:58:27.599
should I wait and save five dollars
a piece? Well, and I

745
00:58:27.599 --> 00:58:30.679
mean, what's the what's the best
what's the best way to say this?

746
00:58:30.760 --> 00:58:34.199
A lot of queer films do not
sell well through OCEN. They yeah,

747
00:58:34.239 --> 00:58:37.039
take fucking while to sell out,
you know, honestly sucks like I see

748
00:58:37.039 --> 00:58:38.599
that every month. It's like,
this isn't selling that well even though it

749
00:58:38.639 --> 00:58:43.599
looks amazing. It's kind of disappointing. However, real quick, Hey,

750
00:58:43.599 --> 00:58:46.000
Brian, what's up? I just
checked the culture Shock slips are fifteen right

751
00:58:46.000 --> 00:58:51.360
now. So I don't think it's
going to get cheaper than that. I

752
00:58:51.360 --> 00:58:53.039
don't think I will. I do
think they'll come back if they don't sell

753
00:58:53.039 --> 00:58:54.920
out, so maybe then you don't
have to buy them today. But I

754
00:58:54.960 --> 00:59:00.039
don't think they're gonna get cheaper than
this. Yeah, and I don't think

755
00:59:00.079 --> 00:59:05.360
I have any of these three altered
Innocence titles. And I definitely wanted the

756
00:59:05.880 --> 00:59:08.320
Alloyd Daily Iglesia one for sure.
There's two of them on there too,

757
00:59:08.320 --> 00:59:16.719
which just nice. And that Sibyl's
supposed to be really good. Yeah,

758
00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:21.800
the Mob This is a great praise, great price for that CIP title.

759
00:59:25.960 --> 00:59:30.599
All right, we checked out all
of the new vs. I'm going to

760
00:59:30.679 --> 00:59:34.920
dive into some of these partner label
titles. Yeah, and for great things

761
00:59:34.920 --> 00:59:40.280
about air Doll too. Air Doll
is interesting for sure. Blonde Death from

762
00:59:40.280 --> 00:59:45.800
Bleeding Skull. So this is their
first one and so their little new snippet.

763
00:59:45.039 --> 00:59:49.960
Since two thousand and four, Bleeding
School has explored otherworldly cinema through reviews,

764
00:59:50.000 --> 00:59:52.599
books, and home video releases.
We shine a light on independent genre

765
00:59:52.639 --> 00:59:55.760
films that have flown under the radar
but deserve to be seen by all.

766
00:59:57.159 --> 01:00:00.119
Fangoria is called Bleeding School the go
to encyclopedia for t trash, bizarre and

767
01:00:00.159 --> 01:00:04.960
shot on video cinema, while Wece
referred to it as like a fever dream

768
01:00:04.960 --> 01:00:09.719
glimpse into parallel worlds. So this
only has a thousand copies and it's already

769
01:00:09.760 --> 01:00:16.880
sold four hundred and six of them. Shit okay, Jesus and Joel is

770
01:00:16.880 --> 01:00:28.480
saying it's a masterpiece. Well damn
okay, on this we've got uh let's

771
01:00:28.519 --> 01:00:32.920
see it's region free. Preservation from
the original three quarter tape. Master commentary

772
01:00:32.960 --> 01:00:37.639

kJ Shephard. Interview with star Sarah Lee

773
01:00:37.639 --> 01:00:43.280

01:00:43.320 --> 01:00:49.239
Dor's nineteen eighty six tour of EASYTV
Flexi disc with limited edition slipcover limited to

775
01:00:49.440 --> 01:00:55.440
two hundred What flexi disc? What
is this? Oh? You had a

776
01:00:55.440 --> 01:01:04.039
little record with it, so no
way neat Okay, So this one also

777
01:01:04.079 --> 01:01:06.519
has two hundred and fifty of the
slip covers. They have not sold four

778
01:01:06.599 --> 01:01:12.440
hundred of them already. Okay,
gotcha. I am looking real quick at

779
01:01:12.480 --> 01:01:15.239
the rewards slips right now. And
they have the original Fade to Black one

780
01:01:15.280 --> 01:01:19.559
not there, which is an amazing
film and I love that artwork. So

781
01:01:19.760 --> 01:01:22.559
just a heads up, Yes,
I see Deadly Games on there too.

782
01:01:23.119 --> 01:01:31.840
That's a good one too. So
Blonde Death, Let's all go to Donkey

783
01:01:31.960 --> 01:01:37.360
Lance shot on video for two thousand
dollars by James Dillinger aka James Robert Baker,

784
01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:42.360
produced by Los Angeles Art Collective,
eastv. Blonde Death is a savage

785
01:01:42.360 --> 01:01:46.360
blast of underground anarchy. This limited
edition flexi disc features the ballot of Blonde

786
01:01:46.360 --> 01:01:52.079
Death and exclusive rip roaring audio collage
by Bleeding Skull that pays tribute to the

787
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:55.599
most accomplished an important shot on video
film ever made. The story follows the

788
01:01:55.599 --> 01:02:01.199
transformation of tamuland Beaverdorf from bubbly tea
to death tripping speed freak, an in

789
01:02:01.239 --> 01:02:06.239
your face rampage of sex, drugs, and violence that climaxes with scenes that

790
01:02:06.280 --> 01:02:12.559
were secretly filmed inside Disneyland. Oh
hell yeah, satiric, subversive, been

791
01:02:12.599 --> 01:02:16.760
gleefully enraged. Blonde Death is an
essential chapter of queer cinema history. Okay,

792
01:02:16.880 --> 01:02:20.519
people are selling me on it.
The Ginger Shit shout out to You

793
01:02:20.800 --> 01:02:23.119
is saying that it has been out
of print for a long time, which

794
01:02:23.159 --> 01:02:27.840
is very cool, and Joel Fisher
says is like bad Lands made by a

795
01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:36.159
very misanthropic John Waters. People know
how to sell me on shit. I

796
01:02:36.199 --> 01:02:39.119
love bad Lands and I love John
Waters even more. So. Yeah,

797
01:02:38.559 --> 01:02:44.719
that was pretty great. All right, all right, all right, I

798
01:02:45.320 --> 01:02:47.400
want to get in on the fund, so I'm a fucking checking out on

799
01:02:47.440 --> 01:02:54.719
my subscription. You won't get any
discounts apparently. I guess we'll see if

800
01:02:54.760 --> 01:03:00.320
anything for data. I'm doing this
as an active service. Actually good,

801
01:03:00.440 --> 01:03:05.880
good Aja Demons from Saturn's Corps.
We got a new making of feature length

802
01:03:05.920 --> 01:03:10.400
documentary audio commentary with the director,
moderated by William Connolly, behind the scenes

803
01:03:10.440 --> 01:03:15.000
footage and outtakes super eight millimeter works
over an hour of Damon Foster's early silent

804
01:03:15.079 --> 01:03:23.480
shorts. Interesting. Saturn's Core goes
above and beyond to give everything for some

805
01:03:23.519 --> 01:03:27.800
of these directors. Yeah, they
really do. I love Saturn's Core.

806
01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:34.199
Brian Celeste. Where was that Jess
Scade dec you mentioned? Warned? Yeah,

807
01:03:34.280 --> 01:03:39.760
although apparently it might be wrong,
So maybe hold off on that Connie

808
01:03:39.800 --> 01:03:45.519
title called Cleaners. This is from
twenty twenty one. It's some loud artwork

809
01:03:45.599 --> 01:03:52.079
going on there. Who tons of
short films on this audio commentary. The

810
01:03:52.119 --> 01:03:59.920
director newly commissioned short film called Uh
Young Hewing Swimming Reunion before Life Happens.

811
01:04:00.559 --> 01:04:12.440
Interesting booklet with new writing on the
film. Wow, there's a lot on

812
01:04:12.519 --> 01:04:16.599
there. That was the pre subscription
purchase. Deep sigh. You just heard

813
01:04:16.599 --> 01:04:24.000
from me, copy pasted my coupon
code and then let's see what it looks

814
01:04:24.039 --> 01:04:28.400
like with tax for my It looks
like I can use reward points on it

815
01:04:28.440 --> 01:04:32.960
too. Oh nice, So I
could theoretically have four thousands, so I

816
01:04:32.960 --> 01:04:35.920
could get forty bucks off of it
right now, which is probably the smart

817
01:04:35.960 --> 01:04:45.480
thing to do. I'm probably not
going to all right, right, hmm.

818
01:04:45.480 --> 01:04:51.400
So we got down to eight fifty. Okay, confirming my very secret

819
01:04:51.480 --> 01:05:01.239
address. I'm curious. We'll see
what the tax ends up being for the

820
01:05:01.320 --> 01:05:10.039
Commonwealth of Virginia. Hopefully these are
YouTube safe pictures. I'm showing. Uh,

821
01:05:14.719 --> 01:05:21.960
hold on, it's not showing me. I left so hard at Beaver

822
01:05:23.039 --> 01:05:27.800
Dwarf Dallas. I already did my
name change it. I should have waited

823
01:05:28.000 --> 01:05:34.960
and then I could have had Beaver
Dwarf just goes to show you it pays

824
01:05:34.960 --> 01:05:46.360
it a weight. Sometimes make it
legal. Celest Dala, Beaver Dwarf.

825
01:05:47.400 --> 01:05:51.039
That might that might, that might
happen at some point in some capacities.

826
01:05:51.159 --> 01:06:00.400
Is all I like that? Oh
boy, okay, paying for m Dallas

827
01:06:00.400 --> 01:06:06.199
says Blonde Death's trailer just sold me
so hard. Jesus Christ, so on

828
01:06:06.280 --> 01:06:10.480
cracking up. We got a feature
length commentary with Matt Miter, co writer

829
01:06:10.599 --> 01:06:14.800
Ted LaRusso, co star Carolyn McDermott, and the composer Arthur Rosen. New

830
01:06:14.840 --> 01:06:17.920
interviews with a bunch of people from
the film, new director and cinematographer.

831
01:06:17.920 --> 01:06:21.599
Approved black and white version of the
film. Introduction to the black and white

832
01:06:21.639 --> 01:06:27.559
version by the director, Some deleted
scenes, the complete Honesty Laundry detergent commercial,

833
01:06:28.199 --> 01:06:32.159
raw footage of four scenes with commentary, three live sketches, live performance

834
01:06:32.320 --> 01:06:46.119
of Matt Mitler sketch Schindler Fella,
Shindler Fella interesting, sure, and then

835
01:06:46.239 --> 01:06:49.679
dogs don't wear pants. This is
one I'm probably not gonna be able to

836
01:06:49.719 --> 01:06:53.800
show many pictures from. As you
can tell just by the back of the

837
01:06:53.840 --> 01:07:00.480
slip. Looks like my kind of
thing. Probably. We've got an introduction

838
01:07:00.599 --> 01:07:04.480
by the director, interview with some
of the actors, camera test, audio

839
01:07:04.559 --> 01:07:11.599
commentary, storyboard, slideshow, ska
by Rose Melamett, writer and creator hosting

840
01:07:11.719 --> 01:07:29.639
Girls, Guts and Giallo. Not
a great title for yellow ail. We

841
01:07:29.800 --> 01:07:32.320
looked at film movements. By the
way, this art on here is by

842
01:07:32.360 --> 01:07:39.599
Elizabeth You. She is incredible.
She did that and you can actually see

843
01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:42.400
her art in the zine every month
if you're a part of that. She

844
01:07:42.480 --> 01:07:46.480
did the last Big World release.
Yep. If I'm recognizing styles accurately,

845
01:07:46.920 --> 01:07:53.320
yep. So I'm not getting tax
I haven't hit complete order yet, but

846
01:07:53.360 --> 01:07:56.719
I just did my PayPal pay for
application and everything, and I'm at the

847
01:07:56.800 --> 01:08:01.000
last step and I don't see it. So Rock Judson says, Howdy Vineger

848
01:08:01.039 --> 01:08:05.599
Syndrome just tweeted about the issue with
discounts. What are they saying me?

849
01:08:05.800 --> 01:08:15.639
Let me go take a look.
We understand that there's an issue with sub

850
01:08:15.679 --> 01:08:18.159
discounts. We are working on a
fix. Sorry for the frustration. Please

851
01:08:18.239 --> 01:08:26.399
stand by. I just finished placing
the order. I didn't get taxed like

852
01:08:26.479 --> 01:08:30.399
I was just a solid eight fifty, So damn. I don't know if

853
01:08:30.399 --> 01:08:34.640
that's a mistake that I'm going to
benefit from getting to it quick enough.

854
01:08:34.640 --> 01:08:39.960
I'm not sure. But maybe I'll
be getting a bill from the US government

855
01:08:40.159 --> 01:08:45.520
at some point. I'm not sure
the Commonwealth of Virginia's gonna knocking down my

856
01:08:45.560 --> 01:08:50.640
door for the sixty bucks or whatever
I didn't pay. All right, let's

857
01:08:50.680 --> 01:08:56.239
see, I got subscriber shit.
So I have subscriber price here, which

858
01:08:56.279 --> 01:08:58.840
is working. Okay, let me
add to cart and see what happens.

859
01:09:00.760 --> 01:09:05.359
And it is not showing up in
my wait, yess it is. It's

860
01:09:05.399 --> 01:09:16.000
working for me. Interesting, Let's
pretend like I'm buying Southern Comfort and yeah

861
01:09:16.000 --> 01:09:34.640
it's working nice, so hopefully for
others too. The discount shows on the

862
01:09:34.680 --> 01:09:38.600
mange page, but when you get
to your cart, they're not there,

863
01:09:38.760 --> 01:09:42.880
suys Rock Chudson. Yeah, I
just went through the Excuse me, I

864
01:09:42.920 --> 01:09:45.239
just went through the whole like,
I even got to the checkout page and

865
01:09:45.239 --> 01:09:48.520
it was still showing up. So
that's just for me, obviously. I

866
01:09:48.880 --> 01:09:53.880
don't doubt that other people are having
Blake says now adding and deleting for him?

867
01:09:54.079 --> 01:10:00.800
Is they are showing properly good,
So maybe it's all fixed. Might

868
01:10:00.840 --> 01:10:04.600
go ahead and scoop blonde to death. People are selling me on it?

869
01:10:06.359 --> 01:10:11.319
How much is it with the flexi
disc seven extra dollars? Here's a thing

870
01:10:11.439 --> 01:10:14.039
that don't want or need it,
but maybe I can sell it. I

871
01:10:14.039 --> 01:10:25.199
don't know what is on it?
Does it even say yeah, there's I

872
01:10:25.239 --> 01:10:34.159
think only one track, presumably the
theme or something. Yeah, I believe

873
01:10:34.199 --> 01:10:42.840
so, so I just went to
play around with it. And when you

874
01:10:42.880 --> 01:10:45.920
go to add the sub discount from
last year, it takes it off.

875
01:10:46.199 --> 01:10:49.279
But then if you go to add
points off as well. They do not

876
01:10:49.600 --> 01:10:53.079
take any money off, or they
will, but it will only take the

877
01:10:53.119 --> 01:11:00.000
points off and it gives the coupon
code removed. Okay, so yeah,

878
01:11:00.119 --> 01:11:03.479
you can only use one. It
looks like maybe I should have done it

879
01:11:03.479 --> 01:11:06.600
for my subscription. Then I don't
know how they would have booted. Maybe

880
01:11:06.600 --> 01:11:12.920
they would have booted my coupon or
something. I don't know. Yeah,

881
01:11:12.960 --> 01:11:18.439
they boot the coupon as soon as
you apply points. Ragnar is very upset

882
01:11:18.439 --> 01:11:23.520
about the media club points raising,
which is understandable. I get it.

883
01:11:27.279 --> 01:11:43.199
Mmm, this has turned into very
bad radio. Now that I'm just shopping,

884
01:11:45.359 --> 01:11:54.479
I'm gonna look at Gay USA snapshots
of nineteen seventies LGBT resistance. Heading

885
01:11:54.479 --> 01:12:00.520
this essential set is the incredibly poignant
and mesmerizing feature documentary from Arthur J.

886
01:12:00.680 --> 01:12:02.880
Bresen, who did Forbidden Letters and
Buddies. Okay, now I have to

887
01:12:02.920 --> 01:12:08.039
have it. Breston Junior documents aspects
of the gay rights movement during the year

888
01:12:08.079 --> 01:12:12.439
of seventy seven, capturing the intersections
of diversity in queer life, from vox

889
01:12:12.520 --> 01:12:16.079
pop style interviews with lesbian feminists,
street drag queens, and straight allies to

890
01:12:16.159 --> 01:12:20.439
taking a look at the fight against
Notori's homophobe Anita Bryant and her Save our

891
01:12:20.520 --> 01:12:30.039
Children campaign. Wow, okay,
Jeremy didn't get any sales tax either.

892
01:12:30.279 --> 01:12:39.960
I wonder if they're a really messing
up somewhere. Ryan, you were going

893
01:12:40.000 --> 01:12:46.760
to subscribe anyways Queen stream for real? Yes, indeed, as I agree

894
01:12:49.600 --> 01:12:53.680
Jeremy, you're gonna get partner labels
to just put those points towards the partner

895
01:12:53.720 --> 01:13:00.159
labels. You're still saving the same
amount, Sam, do you Dallas have

896
01:13:00.199 --> 01:13:04.760
a good day? Good New EXAs
stands already down to eight seventy two.

897
01:13:08.760 --> 01:13:15.199
That's that's a lot that they sold
of that very cool and that's crazy because

898
01:13:15.239 --> 01:13:20.359
that had ten thousand copies. Yeah, that's so I'm almost as fast as

899
01:13:20.439 --> 01:13:27.840
Rad did. Yeah. A quick
quick note as I'm shopping in the rewards

900
01:13:27.840 --> 01:13:30.199
section, or not the reward section. The daily deals for the altered innocent

901
01:13:30.239 --> 01:13:34.520
stuff, the slips are fifteen dollars, but the standards are still full price.

902
01:13:34.960 --> 01:13:40.119
So weird. Oh they will Yeah, they'll almost certainly be ten dollars

903
01:13:40.199 --> 01:14:09.359
later, but just so you know, interesting, enjoy Ferrari cam nice man.

904
01:14:09.680 --> 01:14:18.800
This is there's just so much to
digest which are you looking at all

905
01:14:18.800 --> 01:14:27.319
the partner labels. I've that one's
interesting looking and it's got it's got a

906
01:14:27.359 --> 01:14:31.800
lot of interesting names tied to it. Like here, all all involved consider

907
01:14:31.880 --> 01:14:35.079
Cracking Up to be the thesis project
following the Movie of the Month videos,

908
01:14:35.119 --> 01:14:40.359
taking everything they learned about improvised storytelling
for the screen and amping it up for

909
01:14:40.399 --> 01:14:45.319
a scripted and rehearsed feature film,
a comic tragedy, but a time capsule

910
01:14:45.359 --> 01:14:48.720
of the NYC performance art scene of
the early nineties. Cracking Up was co

911
01:14:48.720 --> 01:14:51.680
written and directed by Matt Mitler and
features a who's who of New York talent,

912
01:14:51.720 --> 01:14:56.800
with Kevin Brown from thirty Rock,
Deborah Wilson from Mad TV, Cameron

913
01:14:56.840 --> 01:15:00.720
Manheim from Happiness, Kimberly Flynn from
Script, t Eas Frank's Anger from Leon

914
01:15:00.720 --> 01:15:03.279
the Professional, Jeff Ayres from Pledge
Night, Toby hust from the Adventures of

915
01:15:03.279 --> 01:15:08.560
Pete and Pete, Robert Pritchard,
and Jennifer Baptist from Class of Newcomb High.

916
01:15:09.439 --> 01:15:15.439
I mean that's a lot of names. Yeah, So I guess they're

917
01:15:15.479 --> 01:15:19.079
just doubling down on this Movie of
the Month thing that they did last month.

918
01:15:19.159 --> 01:15:23.560
Yeah, which I just fully did
not understand. I gotta be honest.

919
01:15:25.520 --> 01:15:28.479
I couldn't find letterbox entries on it. I couldn't. There was nothing

920
01:15:28.479 --> 01:15:31.680
for me to reference to help understand
that. Right, it looks like Michael

921
01:15:31.720 --> 01:15:39.640
got text. That's that's unfortunate.
I am genuinely kind of wondering about that

922
01:15:41.359 --> 01:15:43.960
as it's dogs don't wear pants.
Looks like S and M fight Club.

923
01:15:44.199 --> 01:15:51.159
Hell yeah, I want to watch
that like sooner rather than later. Visiest

924
01:15:51.279 --> 01:15:58.359
uses points towards the led sign.
Nice? Nice? Can I get if

925
01:15:58.399 --> 01:16:00.239
anyone out there is listening that can
make this happen? Can I get this

926
01:16:00.279 --> 01:16:05.199
sex tool shirt on sale? Please? Thirty dollars is like not an unreasonable

927
01:16:05.199 --> 01:16:08.640
price for it, But you know, since Altered Innostance is out the door

928
01:16:08.680 --> 01:16:11.279
and you probably need to make room, you might as well sell me one

929
01:16:11.279 --> 01:16:15.520
for like fifteen, right, that
would be cool for me. I think

930
01:16:18.640 --> 01:16:21.479
I didn't realize this order that forbidding
his own book. Nice? Nice,

931
01:16:21.560 --> 01:16:30.560
nice, nice. I'm thinking about
that too. Oh that's right, take

932
01:16:30.680 --> 01:16:35.920
thirty bucks. What's the back say? Use abuse everyone everything as hard as

933
01:16:35.920 --> 01:16:39.319
fuck. I've almost bought it so
many times, but I'm just like,

934
01:16:39.359 --> 01:16:41.880
I wonder if they'll put it on
sale. Well, and the cool thing

935
01:16:41.920 --> 01:16:45.119
about it, a dollar of each
shirt has being done in the Leather Archives

936
01:16:45.199 --> 01:16:47.960
Museum. That's that's not bad.
Also, like, come on, that's

937
01:16:48.039 --> 01:16:50.680
very on brand. I want to
wear that shit to the grocery store.

938
01:16:51.239 --> 01:17:12.159
Yeah hmm, Jules says, I'm
pretty sure that tax is determined individually by

939
01:17:12.199 --> 01:17:15.239
state, depending on the amount of
sales in that state. Yes, and

940
01:17:15.279 --> 01:17:18.159
that can switch over during the calendar
year. So if they didn't have enough

941
01:17:18.199 --> 01:17:21.680
sales in your state last year,
you may not have tax the entire year.

942
01:17:23.159 --> 01:17:28.039
Okay, unless you read yes every
single year. So then is it

943
01:17:28.079 --> 01:17:33.560
because we didn't reach that threshold like
today and I got in there early enough.

944
01:17:33.600 --> 01:17:38.359
Maybe No, it's for last calendar
year, all right. Well,

945
01:17:38.359 --> 01:17:43.479
shout out to Virginia not shopping,
I guess, not supporting vinegar syndrome.

946
01:17:43.960 --> 01:17:45.000
I thought I would have done it
on my own, to be honest,

947
01:17:45.000 --> 01:17:53.319
but you know, but Jeremy's in
California. There's no way, So I'm

948
01:17:53.319 --> 01:17:59.079
confused about that. That's a great
question. Not sorry at doxy, Jeremy.

949
01:17:59.079 --> 01:18:06.079
I know that you're very date the
events you attend and everything literally broadcasting

950
01:18:06.079 --> 01:18:15.319
where you're going to be that night. Sorry, Well, after purchasing an

951
01:18:15.359 --> 01:18:20.039
eight hundred and fifty dollars subscription,
I have already built up a ninety dollars

952
01:18:20.119 --> 01:18:27.720
cart, and so I'm not feeling
great about that. But look, all

953
01:18:27.800 --> 01:18:31.000
right, I got Blonde Death in
there, and I have Fortress of America

954
01:18:31.039 --> 01:18:33.680
because that's a VSA and I can't
rent it or really see it any other

955
01:18:33.720 --> 01:18:39.239
way. Last gasp is only ten
dollars. That might be the one that

956
01:18:39.279 --> 01:18:41.279
has to go, but it's just
like, come on, that's a good

957
01:18:41.279 --> 01:18:45.520
price, and I like the art
on it, the Alloyd de Iglecia films,

958
01:18:45.840 --> 01:18:50.399
Sybil and name above whoa the Carlos. I'm not even going to try

959
01:18:50.399 --> 01:19:00.640
to pronounce her last name. That
one. I don't know. I mean,

960
01:19:00.680 --> 01:19:04.279
you saved for this, so yeah, why not? You know what

961
01:19:04.319 --> 01:19:10.119
else? I had a like hair
appointment that I canceled because it was going

962
01:19:10.159 --> 01:19:14.199
to be really expensive. It's basically
saved money. I did. I honestly

963
01:19:14.199 --> 01:19:15.199
I did. It was going to
be very expensive, and I just like,

964
01:19:15.680 --> 01:19:19.640
I gotta be realistic. Any ideas
what boxes will be on sale tomorrow,

965
01:19:19.800 --> 01:19:23.079
No, but I would just take
a look at which ones have not

966
01:19:23.199 --> 01:19:28.680
sold super well, and that's probably
a good guess like I'm guessing the Camille

967
01:19:28.760 --> 01:19:35.119
Keaton in Italy set, maybe the
uh the fucking what is it Cardona Junior

968
01:19:35.119 --> 01:19:38.319
set? The first one? Yeah, maybe even the second one. Jesus,

969
01:19:38.359 --> 01:19:44.680
I don't know. Uh cabe Gaplin. I always forget just putting in

970
01:19:44.680 --> 01:19:46.680
your billing address automatically make it your
shipping adders for the rest of the year.

971
01:19:46.960 --> 01:19:51.319
I believe they ask for both while
you're checking out. Yeah, I

972
01:19:51.319 --> 01:19:55.720
mean you can like save them.
But yeah, I'm pretty sure that is

973
01:19:55.760 --> 01:20:02.319
accurate. M Oh wow. Ryan's
not seeing any taxes in California either.

974
01:20:02.439 --> 01:20:10.399
That's pretty insane. That doesn't make
any sense. What's going on. I

975
01:20:10.439 --> 01:20:14.840
thought California was like a tax hell
escape you have to escape to Texas to

976
01:20:15.560 --> 01:20:20.199
escape all the horrible authoritary in taxes
funding all the social services, the evil

977
01:20:20.279 --> 01:20:30.600
social services over there. Yep,
gosh, so many times. I mean,

978
01:20:31.039 --> 01:20:33.479
look, I gotta be honest.
If it is a case where I

979
01:20:33.520 --> 01:20:36.600
didn't have to pay for tax and
they're not gonna hit me with a bill

980
01:20:36.640 --> 01:20:41.640
in a second, like maybe I
can go a little little splurge. I

981
01:20:41.720 --> 01:20:46.680
mean, that's ninety dollars you planned
on spending ninety Yeah, I mean thereabouts

982
01:20:47.079 --> 01:20:49.960
last time it worked out to almost
exactly what the coupon was, so it

983
01:20:50.000 --> 01:20:53.439
was like seventy and that was on
a higher price point, so maybe it

984
01:20:53.439 --> 01:20:59.239
would have been closer to sixty,
but I don't know. I don't know.

985
01:21:00.319 --> 01:21:02.840
We got a good comment in the
Discord just now, and I'm not

986
01:21:02.920 --> 01:21:05.520
I'm not checking the Discord, but
it popped up on my screen. This

987
01:21:05.680 --> 01:21:09.359
is I believe the first month since
they've been a partner label that we have

988
01:21:09.359 --> 01:21:15.600
not had a new AGFA release really
and that's now that's been years of them

989
01:21:15.600 --> 01:21:19.359
putting stock out literally, well they
had two last time, so they've had

990
01:21:19.880 --> 01:21:27.720
a few times. Yeah. I
hope ACT was not saying bye on this.

991
01:21:28.000 --> 01:21:30.760
That would be unfortunate. Now I
f C title this time, which

992
01:21:30.760 --> 01:21:33.279
I was kind of excited to see
what else they had in there. Yeah,

993
01:21:33.560 --> 01:21:38.000
I only see them doing eight or
ten for this year. M hmm,

994
01:21:38.079 --> 01:21:44.520
okay, okay. Joel's getting taxed
in Washington. Nick Newlan says we

995
01:21:44.560 --> 01:21:49.960
get international taxes charged separately from the
Bank of Austin Green says, no taxes

996
01:21:50.039 --> 01:21:56.319
for Texas. Full support for our
international vs. Shopper is this brutal,

997
01:21:58.000 --> 01:22:00.640
but like it is what it is
like honestly, it was a little silly.

998
01:22:00.720 --> 01:22:04.119
But I do think about Will's bit
a few weeks ago or a few

999
01:22:04.119 --> 01:22:06.479
months ago, where he was like, just think about it. It's going

1000
01:22:06.520 --> 01:22:10.680
across the world for t twenty dollars. Yeah, I mean that is it.

1001
01:22:10.800 --> 01:22:15.199
That is pretty insane, you know, but also not fun for people

1002
01:22:15.239 --> 01:22:25.439
who are in that position. This
is true, m I always forget about

1003
01:22:25.479 --> 01:22:28.439
that deluxe shipping option too. Some
people are spending I think it's an extra

1004
01:22:28.439 --> 01:22:33.640
one hundred for FedEx instead of USPS. It's a good amount, and I

1005
01:22:33.880 --> 01:22:40.640
specifically emailed them asking for them to
use USPS because FedEx is fucking awful,

1006
01:22:40.680 --> 01:22:43.520
at least for me. They delivered. I've said this already, but they've

1007
01:22:43.520 --> 01:22:46.359
delivered to the wrong house every single
time for like six months straight, and

1008
01:22:46.399 --> 01:22:51.159
I was like, please please stop. I just USPS has never fucked up

1009
01:22:51.199 --> 01:22:58.199
my shit once. And it's just
like Sardist from my discord has had his

1010
01:22:58.720 --> 01:23:02.000
uh FedEx package I believe delivered twice
to the wrong house and they get a

1011
01:23:02.159 --> 01:23:06.520
picture showing it delivered. So Sardis
has literally driven to that house to retrieve

1012
01:23:06.560 --> 01:23:10.720
his items. Oh it would be
fine, honestly, it would be less

1013
01:23:11.359 --> 01:23:13.439
of a thing. If they took
they don't take a picture for me,

1014
01:23:14.439 --> 01:23:15.800
or if they do, it's like
nothing. Right, It was like a

1015
01:23:17.119 --> 01:23:23.399
blurry picture them walking back to the
truck. Uh huh uh yeah, you

1016
01:23:23.399 --> 01:23:26.319
don't even know the efforts to like
I made an account and I like put

1017
01:23:26.359 --> 01:23:30.640
special instructions in there, just everything
I could possibly do. Nope. Sorry,

1018
01:23:30.640 --> 01:23:33.359
at least it was the same house
every time, right, which is

1019
01:23:33.600 --> 01:23:39.079
more baffling but also more convenient.
I guess that is really odd. How

1020
01:23:39.119 --> 01:23:46.239
does it keep? The numbers are
kind of similar? Kind of I guess

1021
01:23:48.840 --> 01:23:53.479
that X is better for international,
says Joel. All right, maybe,

1022
01:23:53.640 --> 01:23:58.319
but that one I wouldn't know.
Uh so, one man from Canadian International

1023
01:23:58.319 --> 01:24:01.359
Pictures. This one I'm gonna of
that now, let's see. Is from

1024
01:24:01.439 --> 01:24:08.439
nineteen seventy seven scan restored in two
K from the sixteen millimeter interpositive audio commentary

1025
01:24:08.520 --> 01:24:13.439
was Stephen Brumer. Who is the
guy behind the other like gold ninja type

1026
01:24:13.479 --> 01:24:17.920
label black zero black zero. Yeah, he's the guy that runs that label.

1027
01:24:17.960 --> 01:24:24.239
So interesting. One sister new interview
with Robin Spry's sister Libspriye. A

1028
01:24:24.520 --> 01:24:29.720
new interview with spries longtime collaborator Bob
Presner. Five short films by Spride.

1029
01:24:29.760 --> 01:24:31.960
It's not just five, it's nine
short films that are on this thing,

1030
01:24:32.319 --> 01:24:38.279
which, like THEES. My favorite
thing about Canadian International is how much they

1031
01:24:38.319 --> 01:24:41.039
would stack their releases with short films, and they honestly haven't been doing that

1032
01:24:41.119 --> 01:24:45.079
recently, which is understandable but disappointing. This is more like it. This

1033
01:24:45.119 --> 01:24:46.640
is more my speed, where it's
like, yeah, let's get like eighty

1034
01:24:46.680 --> 01:24:53.840
films stacked on here, like hell
yeah yeah. And one is called illegal

1035
01:24:53.880 --> 01:25:00.680
abortion, which is a thing I
support. I don't support illegalizing abortion,

1036
01:25:00.760 --> 01:25:03.920
but if it is, I support
doing it anyway as long as you can

1037
01:25:03.920 --> 01:25:06.840
do it safely. What I'm saying
is abortion is cool and based, and

1038
01:25:06.880 --> 01:25:13.319
you should do it if that's what
you want to do. Look, I

1039
01:25:13.640 --> 01:25:15.800
get tired of these people like I'm
not pro abortion, I'm just pro choice.

1040
01:25:15.800 --> 01:25:19.720
Fuck that shit. I am pro
abortion. Abortion is good. Now

1041
01:25:19.720 --> 01:25:27.000
that I've fully lost to you,
at least a few subscribers were good excited

1042
01:25:27.119 --> 01:25:30.560
for the CIP releases this year.
Anything amazing I am missing. I mean

1043
01:25:30.560 --> 01:25:34.560
there's all kinds ofs oh. He
listed purchases after pursuing the annual sub Here's

1044
01:25:34.600 --> 01:25:38.439
what's in my Car, something Comfort, Blonde, Death, the Tune,

1045
01:25:38.479 --> 01:25:42.039
Dogs don't wear Pants and never Surrender. I mean, there's a bunch of

1046
01:25:42.079 --> 01:25:44.560
these that look really great. Ay, Usa, that's what I'm saying,

1047
01:25:44.560 --> 01:25:48.960
you're gonna, Missy, That's what
I'm saying you're missing and looks pretty good

1048
01:25:49.199 --> 01:25:53.680
because I mean, these are their
last releases too, so you know,

1049
01:25:54.279 --> 01:26:00.840
get on that two thousand for the
Strangler. That's interesting it is they never

1050
01:26:00.920 --> 01:26:02.760
do two thousand for altered innists,
except for like Irreversible, which is a

1051
01:26:02.840 --> 01:26:09.000
huge title. Some of their earlier
ones were fairly new, like twenty fifteen

1052
01:26:09.039 --> 01:26:15.840
and later delete us feed Us.
Indeed, Eric Johnson, when I checked

1053
01:26:15.840 --> 01:26:18.680
out, originally Illinois sales tax was
included and the credit card was charged accordingly.

1054
01:26:18.760 --> 01:26:23.079
Checking just now, though the charge
was reversed and eight fifty was newly

1055
01:26:23.199 --> 01:26:26.800
charged. Okay, I guess that's
just a fun surprise for me that I

1056
01:26:26.800 --> 01:26:30.680
don't pay taxes and now I could
justify what cards the world. I don't

1057
01:26:30.720 --> 01:26:34.840
know what is going on, Thomas. I live in Norway. I've never

1058
01:26:34.880 --> 01:26:39.039
paid tax for packages from VS.
This is the only company I don't pay

1059
01:26:39.079 --> 01:26:42.880
tax from. What a bonus?
Well, you also get to live in

1060
01:26:42.960 --> 01:26:47.119
Norway, so good for you.
Similar to The Strangler Brought Blonde Death,

1061
01:26:47.119 --> 01:26:53.079
Evil Laugh and Forgotten Jolly Volume six
are in my cart right now. Evil

1062
01:26:53.159 --> 01:26:55.960
Laugh is fun. It's I don't
know that it's good, but it's a

1063
01:26:56.039 --> 01:27:00.199
vibe for sure. And it's like
a kind of cozy like uh kind of

1064
01:27:00.239 --> 01:27:05.960
like I don't know, Scooby Doo
esque kind of fun slasher sort of thing.

1065
01:27:06.279 --> 01:27:09.319
I like the color palette on it
a lot. And there's a lot

1066
01:27:09.319 --> 01:27:13.960
of weird like awkward dancing and s
and M scenes and it's just it's very

1067
01:27:14.000 --> 01:27:18.920
bizarre and I enjoy it. So
on The Strangler there's a visual essay by

1068
01:27:19.479 --> 01:27:28.000
Alexander Helterer Nicholas called lost boys and
sad Girls me as fuck both of them.

1069
01:27:28.680 --> 01:27:30.840
She gets it. And then the
tune this is a big one.

1070
01:27:31.359 --> 01:27:40.039
God, I'm excited for this.
Didn't Ben Shapiro's dad do the music for

1071
01:27:40.119 --> 01:27:43.840
Evil? I did not know that. If that's the case, that's funny.

1072
01:27:45.319 --> 01:27:48.760
It would be the coolest thing he's
even been tangentially related to in that

1073
01:27:48.800 --> 01:27:56.199
case. So I love abortion me
too. Never forget that Ben Shapiro's wife

1074
01:27:56.239 --> 01:28:01.319
told him that a wet vagina was
a disease, and then he tweeted that

1075
01:28:01.399 --> 01:28:13.760
multiple times defended his position. Oh
boy, you're welcome Jeremy so much on

1076
01:28:13.800 --> 01:28:16.239
the tune. That's a killer looking
release. I'm debating on Blood Delirium.

1077
01:28:16.239 --> 01:28:21.239
Look, do you like like the
sleaziest possible Italian Gothic r then you'll like

1078
01:28:21.319 --> 01:28:25.960
This'll you will at least be able
to say, wow, that was something

1079
01:28:26.000 --> 01:28:30.199
like it will like provoke a reaction
or an emotion. This is true.

1080
01:28:33.319 --> 01:28:40.319
Yeah, I like it a lot. So a couple big things that we

1081
01:28:40.359 --> 01:28:45.520
should talk about too. While this
is up on the screen. Here one

1082
01:28:45.960 --> 01:28:51.239
is a reminder that shelf Shock rewind
Awards voting is starting tonight that will be

1083
01:28:51.319 --> 01:28:56.039
running all of the entirety of the
month of January. The live show will

1084
01:28:56.039 --> 01:29:00.640
be February eighteenth, but look for
those links starting tonight. And as I

1085
01:29:00.720 --> 01:29:05.039
mentioned earlier, Prophecy got quite a
bit of love from some of the nominees

1086
01:29:05.720 --> 01:29:12.239
for the CSC. Yeah, people
love that Prophecy release. And then the

1087
01:29:12.239 --> 01:29:15.000
other big thing. If you want
to keep the VS love going for the

1088
01:29:15.000 --> 01:29:18.359
rest of the week, I have
Oscar Bescher, the archivist for Vinegar Syndrome,

1089
01:29:18.479 --> 01:29:21.600
on an interview coming out in the
next couple of days, and it's

1090
01:29:21.640 --> 01:29:28.359
gonna be pretty great. I hope
you like it. Oh nice, It

1091
01:29:28.520 --> 01:29:30.640
just clicked what you said because I
was reading at the same time. But

1092
01:29:30.680 --> 01:29:36.800
that's really cool. Yeah, I'll
be very excited to watch that. Ben

1093
01:29:36.840 --> 01:29:45.399
Shapiro's related to Matilda. Matilda like
the like just Matilda. I don't know,

1094
01:29:45.199 --> 01:29:50.439
this got interesting, Anthony. He's
asking me to clarify that comment.

1095
01:29:50.479 --> 01:29:55.159
I don't know if you want me
to take up airtime. I think we're

1096
01:29:55.199 --> 01:30:01.680
good not explaining Shapiro's wife. Okay, just look up Ben Shapiro Wet Ass

1097
01:30:01.720 --> 01:30:10.279
Pussy and you'll you'll you'll find out
Google. That'll be good. And let

1098
01:30:10.279 --> 01:30:15.199
me know in a DM what you
find mm hmm or just here whatever is

1099
01:30:15.239 --> 01:30:19.119
doing Six Degrees of Shapiro. What
an awful game. There's blood on all

1100
01:30:19.119 --> 01:30:26.960
of our hands in that game.
Jesus Christ, oh man, this has

1101
01:30:27.000 --> 01:30:32.359
been fun. It's always fun.
This is a wild, wild month.

1102
01:30:34.960 --> 01:30:39.640
So Ryan says, David Shapiro did
the music for Evil Laugh and New World's

1103
01:30:39.640 --> 01:30:45.399
Hell comes to Frogtown. I'm sure
he's deeply ashamed of that. Jesus,

1104
01:30:48.239 --> 01:30:55.119
what country is? Dogs don't wear
pants? From ooh I think it's off

1105
01:30:55.119 --> 01:31:00.479
the top of Yeah, it looks
like it some weird ass wintry look names

1106
01:31:00.479 --> 01:31:05.800
on here. Look, I gotta
say, Yellow Veil is like a finish,

1107
01:31:05.920 --> 01:31:10.479
nice finish. They don't generally tell
you the country, but you can

1108
01:31:10.560 --> 01:31:12.760
maybe guess from the language. I
wish they would tell you the country,

1109
01:31:12.760 --> 01:31:16.239
honestly, I would. I like
knowing that Yellow Veil has low key been

1110
01:31:16.319 --> 01:31:19.479
like one of my favorite apartment labels. They put out like bangers, like

1111
01:31:19.640 --> 01:31:24.319
constantly, and they don't really They're
not really tied to one thing. They

1112
01:31:24.319 --> 01:31:26.920
just seem to put out like really
good art movies, you know. Yep.

1113
01:31:28.399 --> 01:31:33.119
Also really hard to track down for
an interview. I've been emailing them

1114
01:31:33.239 --> 01:31:38.319
for literally years, and we've said
yes many times to each other and then

1115
01:31:38.399 --> 01:31:43.399
schedules just don't happen to work out. Mmm. Nick Newland, will the

1116
01:31:43.399 --> 01:31:46.439
current VSMC slip sell out today?
I can't say no, but I don't

1117
01:31:46.479 --> 01:31:50.960
remember that happening literally ever. Yeah, I doubt it. I'm gonna say

1118
01:31:51.000 --> 01:31:55.560
I doubt it. I wouldn't worry
about it. But if you want something,

1119
01:31:55.560 --> 01:32:00.760
you should get it. This is
I'm excited year sounds fucking sick.

1120
01:32:01.560 --> 01:32:05.800
I will say, one thing,
with most months having three titles, it

1121
01:32:05.880 --> 01:32:13.199
does sound like there's a little bit
of a down turn on the output,

1122
01:32:13.319 --> 01:32:16.319
But there are also box sets,
so it's not necessarily number of titles that

1123
01:32:16.359 --> 01:32:20.560
would be lesser. Yeah, you're
right, it's just three every time,

1124
01:32:20.640 --> 01:32:25.000
but you know that might help explain
the lower price point. But yeah,

1125
01:32:25.000 --> 01:32:27.520
I think there are a lot of
MULTIFILM sets in there, and there's a

1126
01:32:27.520 --> 01:32:31.920
lot of four K in there too, as there generally is. Yeah,

1127
01:32:32.000 --> 01:32:35.960
I'm seeing thirty three total releases if
I'm counting that right, and if that's

1128
01:32:35.960 --> 01:32:42.199
the thirty nine last year. Yeah, we're down by somewhere between three to

1129
01:32:42.359 --> 01:32:47.600
seven over the last like five years
average. Okay, that's worth considering.

1130
01:32:48.119 --> 01:32:50.119
I don't because I don't think the
quality has gone down, but it looks

1131
01:32:50.119 --> 01:32:54.920
like objectively the output has gone down, and that explains the price point and

1132
01:32:54.960 --> 01:33:02.840
also the sub labels. Yeah,
thirty nine. I think I'm working on

1133
01:33:02.840 --> 01:33:08.840
the script for my recap recommendation whatever
video, and I'm pretty sure it was

1134
01:33:08.840 --> 01:33:16.000
thirty nine titles past. I'm going
double check. Ok Man, Happy New

1135
01:33:16.039 --> 01:33:21.560
yor rymeslest made the only blues you
experienced for the twenty Thank you I appreciate

1136
01:33:21.640 --> 01:33:26.479
that it's not going to happen,
but I appreciate that. Yeah, there's

1137
01:33:26.520 --> 01:33:30.840
always something. Lots of y'allo this
year. That's right. I have to

1138
01:33:30.880 --> 01:33:35.640
take medication to mitigate the amount of
blues I experience. I'm supposed to,

1139
01:33:36.000 --> 01:33:41.279
but none of them work. Oh
that sucks. I got lucky the first

1140
01:33:41.319 --> 01:33:44.840
one I started. Not to make
this into a let's talk about our medication

1141
01:33:45.000 --> 01:33:47.399
screen stream or whatever, but like
the first one I did, it helps.

1142
01:33:47.520 --> 01:33:50.680
It doesn't hasn't fixed me or whatever, right, I think we still

1143
01:33:50.680 --> 01:33:57.000
need adjustments, but like it pretty
meaningfully helped pretty immediately. I will say

1144
01:33:57.000 --> 01:34:00.119
that I know that that's not common
and most people have to spend a lot

1145
01:34:00.119 --> 01:34:01.640
of time with trial and error,
so I wouldn't give up on it.

1146
01:34:01.680 --> 01:34:13.039
But thirty eight titles. I just
checked my scripts. Yeah, so down

1147
01:34:13.039 --> 01:34:16.520
a little bit, nothing crazy?
What was it? Thirty three? Thirty

1148
01:34:16.520 --> 01:34:20.720
three? Okay, so five?
I mean that makes sense in terms of

1149
01:34:20.720 --> 01:34:25.960
the price decrease. I think that's
about proportionate. Honestly, last year was

1150
01:34:25.960 --> 01:34:29.119
probably just an especially good deal because
they had that box set and they probably

1151
01:34:29.159 --> 01:34:36.560
really wanted people to be in on
that, you know, right, Oh

1152
01:34:36.600 --> 01:34:41.159
boy, I'm all excited and I
just want to buy all of these,

1153
01:34:41.600 --> 01:34:46.319
which is not good. Nick Newley
not sure if Common Knowledge but Top Not

1154
01:34:46.439 --> 01:34:50.079
Detective from an Umbrella is an OCN
exclusive release. Umbrella does not sell it

1155
01:34:50.119 --> 01:34:54.319
on their website. While that's true, I have a feeling that they're going

1156
01:34:54.319 --> 01:35:00.880
to announce it for Australia in the
next few months. Probably Ragnar is saying

1157
01:35:00.880 --> 01:35:04.439
that SOV doesn't look better on Blue
ray than DVD. Probably not the resolution,

1158
01:35:04.720 --> 01:35:09.560
but in general Blu rays look so
much better than DVDs in terms of

1159
01:35:09.640 --> 01:35:13.159
like the compression or in terms of
the encoding. I don't know enough about

1160
01:35:13.159 --> 01:35:15.880
it to actually specify what it is
that looks better to me, But whenever

1161
01:35:15.920 --> 01:35:18.000
I watch a DVD, especially on
my really nice projector system and everything,

1162
01:35:18.039 --> 01:35:23.720
it just kind of looks like shit, and even lower resolution images on Blu

1163
01:35:23.800 --> 01:35:27.720
ray like look better. I don't
know how to describe it, but that's

1164
01:35:27.760 --> 01:35:30.039
just my opinion. I don't know
if you have any insight on that.

1165
01:35:30.920 --> 01:35:33.119
I would say they can. But
the best way to aim be tested,

1166
01:35:33.199 --> 01:35:39.640
obviously is with the same title and
literally something that was already filmed at less

1167
01:35:39.680 --> 01:35:45.600
than DVD. Yeah bit rate.
It's also like Michael An easy way to

1168
01:35:45.800 --> 01:35:49.279
spot it is like the subtitles look
worse on a DVD, and then that

1169
01:35:49.399 --> 01:35:53.520
kind of paints the whole experience for
me anyway. And then maybe that's just

1170
01:35:53.520 --> 01:35:56.159
what I'm seeing and it's not actually
the image, but just in general it

1171
01:35:56.199 --> 01:35:59.720
looks like a healthier image. Again, it's kind of a feel I don't

1172
01:35:59.720 --> 01:36:03.720
really have. I'm not technically savvy
enough to describe to you the real difference

1173
01:36:03.720 --> 01:36:08.520
there, but that's just me.
And then on some of these old sovs,

1174
01:36:08.800 --> 01:36:11.920
some of these companies are using I
know this is like a dirty word

1175
01:36:11.960 --> 01:36:15.680
for some people. I'm not super
against it, but as long as it's

1176
01:36:15.680 --> 01:36:17.359
not fucking with it too much.
But some of them are using AI enhancements

1177
01:36:17.880 --> 01:36:21.800
to bring out just a little bit
more definition and not changing the overall quality

1178
01:36:21.800 --> 01:36:27.119
of it overall, just bringing a
little bit of definition. What the fuck?

1179
01:36:27.760 --> 01:36:31.279
I got a very distracting comment just
now from a caveman. I see

1180
01:36:31.319 --> 01:36:38.079
that. Are you talking about googling
Ben Shapiro wet house pus? Trust me,

1181
01:36:38.119 --> 01:36:40.279
I don't think that's going to come
up with like weird shit, like

1182
01:36:40.319 --> 01:36:44.119
it was a pretty big meme.
Okay, maybe just type in wop.

1183
01:36:44.239 --> 01:36:46.600
If you don't want to type that
in specifically CARDI B any of those things

1184
01:36:46.600 --> 01:36:50.159
should do it. Okay, you'll
be all right. I would not suggest

1185
01:36:50.159 --> 01:36:53.720
that you google two Girls, one
cup and not tell you what that was,

1186
01:36:55.720 --> 01:37:02.920
right, Oh man, bitrate is
greater on Blu ray. Compression is

1187
01:37:03.279 --> 01:37:08.479
generally better on Blu ray. But
also it's really easy to look at like

1188
01:37:08.560 --> 01:37:15.960
old DVDs that are truly awfully encoded
DVDs and compare those to modern blue rays

1189
01:37:15.000 --> 01:37:17.760
and go wow, blue rays are
so much better than DVDs. Some of

1190
01:37:17.760 --> 01:37:26.079
those better handled DVDs still look pretty
damn great mh. Like thet Boutique DVDs

1191
01:37:26.079 --> 01:37:29.199
can look really good. Like the
Monol Macabreo DVDs look really good. I

1192
01:37:29.239 --> 01:37:31.159
remember this was when I had a
TV, not a projector, so maybe

1193
01:37:31.239 --> 01:37:34.359
it would be different. But I
remember checking out some Criterion DVDs from the

1194
01:37:34.359 --> 01:37:39.760
library and being like, I don't
know, these are pretty good, but

1195
01:37:40.600 --> 01:37:42.920
AI, yeah, I think it's
a case by case thing. I think

1196
01:37:42.920 --> 01:37:45.159
shot of video there's more justification for
it, especially if it's in a specially

1197
01:37:45.279 --> 01:37:49.000
rough shape like I know they did
it for the linea quickly horror workout,

1198
01:37:49.039 --> 01:37:55.439
because that was just like a piece
of shit, and I think it's better

1199
01:37:55.479 --> 01:37:58.680
than nothing. I think, if
possible, it's better to have both.

1200
01:38:00.159 --> 01:38:02.600
But I know that that's kind of
a big ask sometimes, although the file

1201
01:38:02.640 --> 01:38:05.680
size on that is not too big
because there's not a lot of data there.

1202
01:38:05.880 --> 01:38:08.520
Yeah, you're right, you're right, You're right. Okay, so

1203
01:38:08.560 --> 01:38:15.119
then that's my position, just have
both. That's right. Sybil is the

1204
01:38:15.119 --> 01:38:16.800
one anatomy of a fall. I
haven't seen that yet, but that's why

1205
01:38:16.800 --> 01:38:20.439
it was on my radar because they
were posting about it. Thanks for that,

1206
01:38:20.640 --> 01:38:29.079
John. Oh boy, it's in
my cart. I haven't pulled the

1207
01:38:29.079 --> 01:38:32.239
trigger on it, but it is
there. You saved all that money in

1208
01:38:32.279 --> 01:38:38.399
your hair, I did, honestly. Yeah, I don't know. I

1209
01:38:38.399 --> 01:38:41.359
have to take a look at the
bank account and makes it hold on.

1210
01:38:44.159 --> 01:38:45.960
Yeah, I was gonna say,
it's more of a matter of how much

1211
01:38:45.000 --> 01:38:47.600
money I have right this second,
like if I can actually afford it and

1212
01:38:47.640 --> 01:38:54.439
still pay rent, that kind of
thing. But uh, you know DVT

1213
01:38:54.560 --> 01:38:57.560
version that came at the Blue Ray
and there wasn't a difference, Okay.

1214
01:38:57.720 --> 01:39:02.439
Neat Humboldt Horrors is asking shelf Shock
Awards is tonight, No voting starts tonight.

1215
01:39:02.479 --> 01:39:08.880
The actual awards is February eighteenth,
Yes, tonight, see then eight

1216
01:39:09.000 --> 01:39:15.520
thirty sharp be there. Sorry,
they'll do that, yes, February eighteenth,

1217
01:39:15.560 --> 01:39:18.600
and will we will let you know
time and all that as we get

1218
01:39:18.600 --> 01:39:21.399
closer. But you'll be able to
vote for the entire month of January.

1219
01:39:21.439 --> 01:39:25.239
You haven't voted yet, come on, you still need a month to vote.

1220
01:39:25.880 --> 01:39:30.000
Yeah. New World's comment is very
funny. Not sure if the composer,

1221
01:39:30.079 --> 01:39:33.720
David Shpiro is indeed Ben's dad,
but IMDb also says Ben's trademark is

1222
01:39:33.720 --> 01:39:36.079
a deep, smooth, commanding voice, which, no matter your politics,

1223
01:39:36.159 --> 01:39:41.479
is absolutely that's objectively wrong. Like, come on, I wouldn't say that

1224
01:39:41.600 --> 01:39:45.520
about him if he was my favorite
person. Like, let's be honest.

1225
01:39:45.800 --> 01:39:47.359
Look, I've said this before and
I'm going to say it again, Ben

1226
01:39:47.399 --> 01:39:53.079
Shippe. The fact that Ben Shapiro
has a job in radio is like the

1227
01:39:53.159 --> 01:39:58.399
biggest proof of like the standards that
conservative fundits have, Oh man, like

1228
01:39:58.439 --> 01:40:01.000
they're pretty fucking at the bot if
like you can get a job in radio

1229
01:40:01.039 --> 01:40:05.079
sounding like that, I'm just gonna
say that. I'm still trying to figure

1230
01:40:05.079 --> 01:40:09.520
out how we got to Ben Shapiro
from a Vidiger syndrome a launch because his

1231
01:40:09.600 --> 01:40:12.920
dad did the score apparently. Oh
well it's the same last name. He

1232
01:40:12.960 --> 01:40:17.560
doesn't know, Yeah, you know. But now just now go put that

1233
01:40:17.640 --> 01:40:28.840
nine dB trivia just for fun.
M m yeah, Jeremy, I think

1234
01:40:28.880 --> 01:40:30.960
so. Yes, the most you
can use it once is five thousand points,

1235
01:40:31.600 --> 01:40:41.640
so you just do multiple transactions.
M hm. Oh that's interesting.

1236
01:40:42.640 --> 01:40:45.159
Yes, Erica did write an essay
on the horrible Doctor Hitchcock release, but

1237
01:40:46.039 --> 01:40:51.199
it does just say forty page perfect
bound book, which really awkward. Look.

1238
01:40:51.239 --> 01:40:55.520
Written essays always get the shaft on
these things, which I think is

1239
01:40:55.560 --> 01:40:59.239
fucked up and I don't like.
Like, I will continue to be upset

1240
01:40:59.279 --> 01:41:02.079
that they are always part of the
limited edition only I don't think that that's

1241
01:41:02.159 --> 01:41:05.119
right. I think it should just
be a packaging thing and it should count

1242
01:41:06.239 --> 01:41:15.399
subscriber tombscriber week. I agree,
that's fucked up. That hat opportunity.

1243
01:41:15.359 --> 01:41:24.560
They should hire you, I think. But yes, fucking read the booklets

1244
01:41:24.560 --> 01:41:28.159
like yeah, the fact that booklets
go out of print that always pisses me

1245
01:41:28.199 --> 01:41:30.319
off. You paid the same amount
for written essays as you do for some

1246
01:41:30.359 --> 01:41:33.000
other extras. Those get to stay
on the disc What are you doing for

1247
01:41:33.000 --> 01:41:38.880
the booklets? I don't care for
it. Even make it, put it

1248
01:41:38.920 --> 01:41:41.520
on shitty or paper or something so
it fits, just like include it,

1249
01:41:41.560 --> 01:41:47.000
you know, it's not it's not
cool to me. Well anything else anybody

1250
01:41:47.000 --> 01:41:51.479
wants to take a look at this
is got a ton of stuff, that's

1251
01:41:51.479 --> 01:41:57.399
the big thing. Yeah, I
just have to figure out how much money

1252
01:41:57.399 --> 01:42:04.000
I have three of these paying four
payments since I'm doing it literally day one

1253
01:42:04.039 --> 01:42:10.840
are gonna be in January. So
that's fun. At least it's not all

1254
01:42:10.880 --> 01:42:20.239
at once. Film Desk I don't
know. Yeah, Film Desk hasn't done

1255
01:42:20.239 --> 01:42:31.239
a ton since they've come on.
I'm excited about Santat Listen. This is

1256
01:42:31.239 --> 01:42:33.359
the stuff that I get excited about. It's just like I don't know anything

1257
01:42:33.359 --> 01:42:36.800
about it. It's from a weird
country, like doing weird shit. Looks

1258
01:42:36.840 --> 01:42:48.319
wild me. Yeah, like what
is that? Oh? Will's asking why

1259
01:42:48.319 --> 01:42:51.760
they're selling Old Blue Race? Do
you mean Film Movement or is Film Desk

1260
01:42:51.800 --> 01:42:58.680
also selling Old Blue Race? Let
me check Film Movement. They just came

1261
01:42:58.720 --> 01:43:00.199
on as a partner label, but
they've been established for quite some time,

1262
01:43:00.319 --> 01:43:03.119
so they're going to be selling their
old releases. Through here as well,

1263
01:43:03.199 --> 01:43:08.840
but they're not going to be discounted
because they were available before they were a

1264
01:43:08.880 --> 01:43:13.119
partner label. H yeah, I
just double check film thats just has books

1265
01:43:13.199 --> 01:43:16.119
up, so I think he meant
film. Yeah yeah, okay, all

1266
01:43:16.119 --> 01:43:28.560
good. M hm. They do
have a lot of stuff here though,

1267
01:43:29.840 --> 01:43:42.680
Yeah yeah yeah. Well just for
the last recommendations for the Daily Deals,

1268
01:43:42.720 --> 01:43:45.960
I think ice Man Comment and Blood
Delirium are my top recommendations for stuff I've

1269
01:43:45.960 --> 01:43:51.760
actually seen. But the Uranian Dreams
looks like the one I think, and

1270
01:43:51.920 --> 01:44:09.520
probably Sibyl Caveman is saying things that
are beyond my pay grade. Here.

1271
01:44:10.039 --> 01:44:14.079
You see me interlace some of the
image differences you may see interlaced on a

1272
01:44:14.159 --> 01:44:18.760
DVD as a default laser reading versus
progressive. Interlaced causes flickering in text.

1273
01:44:19.000 --> 01:44:23.680
So yes, that just the older
format is going to look slightly worse for

1274
01:44:23.800 --> 01:44:33.840
DVDs than blu rays MM needs because
they skip over every other line, so

1275
01:44:33.880 --> 01:44:44.279
it comes across as flickering. Okay, okay, well, uh gosh,

1276
01:44:44.319 --> 01:44:50.600
this has been crazy. Oh I'm
just now noticing that they actually added prices

1277
01:44:50.640 --> 01:44:58.640
to their Daily Deals thing for the
hints or the schedule. Oh it's fifteen

1278
01:44:58.680 --> 01:45:01.479
dollars blue rice lips and VSAs on
Wednesday. There's no pricing on the box

1279
01:45:01.520 --> 01:45:06.800
sets, but ten dollars standards on
Thursday, fifteen dollars slips on Friday,

1280
01:45:06.840 --> 01:45:12.439
fifteen dollars slips on Saturday, and
twenty dollars four k's on Sunday. The

1281
01:45:12.640 --> 01:45:15.760
good be both standard and limited as
they have been. Now came, I

1282
01:45:15.800 --> 01:45:18.960
don't apologize. That's like literally the
question I asked, so I appreciate it.

1283
01:45:19.479 --> 01:45:24.039
And the big thing, remember that
they do say limited inventory. And

1284
01:45:24.079 --> 01:45:28.119
we've seen this before where they only
have a certain number that are available at

1285
01:45:28.119 --> 01:45:30.039
that price and then they're not available
anymore, and you don't know when that's

1286
01:45:30.079 --> 01:45:45.039
going to stop. Yep, yep, yep. But it is nice to

1287
01:45:45.079 --> 01:45:49.680
see that you can expect fifteen dollars
each week. It's on the screen right

1288
01:45:49.720 --> 01:45:58.960
now. It's a banner on the
daily deals page. Yep. That's fun.

1289
01:46:00.560 --> 01:46:02.560
I'm just looking at the uh,
never apologize, we want the we

1290
01:46:02.600 --> 01:46:06.520
want the technical talk here. I
think this is the place of any for

1291
01:46:06.600 --> 01:46:11.920
nerd talk. I'm just gonna say
it. The name above title release.

1292
01:46:12.600 --> 01:46:16.680
It has a booklet where the director
introduces and comments on each one of the

1293
01:46:16.720 --> 01:46:20.039
films in the essays, I guess
that's right, dang it, Jake.

1294
01:46:20.600 --> 01:46:25.640
Jake says that Alloyd del it is
I'm like low hannicking a little bit.

1295
01:46:26.760 --> 01:46:30.279
What's up? KB? Hey,
KB, what's up? How low?

1296
01:46:30.319 --> 01:46:35.760
Were we talking? One and twenty
wrong thing? One hundred and twenty eight?

1297
01:46:36.720 --> 01:46:49.760
Yep? Ye uh damn it.
Sybil's at two hundred, so that's

1298
01:46:50.680 --> 01:47:00.239
close. Air Doll's at two hundred. I I'm shocked ear Dollar hasn't sold

1299
01:47:00.239 --> 01:47:03.119
out yet. I thought so when
it came out it was announced, people

1300
01:47:03.119 --> 01:47:05.239
were freaking out and I thought it
was gonna sell out, and it didn't.

1301
01:47:08.039 --> 01:47:11.560
I have a feeling that this film
coming out will be on sale later

1302
01:47:11.640 --> 01:47:15.600
this week because it's ultraed Innocence and
they're leaving. If this does, highly

1303
01:47:15.640 --> 01:47:21.720
recommend this one incredible movie, super
important movie. Yeah. The other one,

1304
01:47:21.960 --> 01:47:26.000
The Wounded Man, is at like
thirty units and I was gonna get

1305
01:47:26.000 --> 01:47:29.640
it before my subscription ended, and
then they closed their site without warning and

1306
01:47:29.640 --> 01:47:32.840
I couldn't get it. So but
the standard is pretty low too, so

1307
01:47:32.960 --> 01:47:35.680
I'm like, I don't want to
pay full price for it. I am

1308
01:47:35.720 --> 01:47:41.399
going to hold out. But yeah, not great maybe I shouldn't do that

1309
01:47:41.399 --> 01:47:44.880
anything. Don't want one hundred and
thirty five combined, or if you do,

1310
01:47:45.039 --> 01:47:54.199
get one for me because I want
it m hm, lots of stuff

1311
01:47:56.239 --> 01:48:02.760
too much. That's my take and
even though it hasn't been stressed enough today,

1312
01:48:03.680 --> 01:48:08.279
Spend wisely, don't drag through your
money, be an idiot like me,

1313
01:48:09.119 --> 01:48:15.680
don't make bad decisions, don't go
into debt. Wave says, just

1314
01:48:15.720 --> 01:48:19.279
bought thirty two copies of Week.
Well, if you send me one,

1315
01:48:19.319 --> 01:48:30.159
I'm okay with that. Reminder that
tomorrow we get a release of the Cinematograph,

1316
01:48:30.319 --> 01:48:34.880
Cinematric whatever we're saying. It's the
first title in the line that drops

1317
01:48:34.920 --> 01:48:40.239
tomorrow and then the second title will
be Sunday, So you may want to

1318
01:48:41.079 --> 01:48:46.960
pay attention to those. Yeah,
dude, says Read that film movement has

1319
01:48:47.000 --> 01:48:49.600
been around since two thousand and two. Haven't heard about them till now?

1320
01:48:50.079 --> 01:48:53.960
You watch the show every Thursday.
We talk about them all the time.

1321
01:48:57.119 --> 01:49:00.760
Called out. Although it is a
it is a very not the script name

1322
01:49:00.840 --> 01:49:03.520
film movement. I could easily see
free. That doesn't tell you much,

1323
01:49:04.119 --> 01:49:15.840
especially when there's film movement, film
desk, film masters, film detective Ryan

1324
01:49:15.880 --> 01:49:18.560
says, on their site. Film
Movement is having a sale twenty dollars Blu

1325
01:49:18.640 --> 01:49:26.079
rays have three in my cart and
there's no shipping all right, so you

1326
01:49:26.119 --> 01:49:30.680
may want to look there instead of
going to the archives here. Well,

1327
01:49:30.720 --> 01:49:36.560
if you're in the US at least, I'm sure international you're gonna get her.

1328
01:49:38.399 --> 01:49:44.079
What's going on in Miss cave Man. The Bleeding Skull releases down to

1329
01:49:44.119 --> 01:49:49.119
three hundred, Well on that one, and keep in mind, so there's

1330
01:49:49.119 --> 01:49:53.319
four hundreds again, it's moving units. This is what's going on there.

1331
01:50:00.119 --> 01:50:06.119
It's not a terrible price with the
flexi disc forty bucks. Well, with

1332
01:50:06.239 --> 01:50:14.640
my nifty subscriber discount that I've just
purchased, it's twenty seven fifty. Film

1333
01:50:14.680 --> 01:50:17.000
Movement used to mail you a disc
per month in a subscription, mostly foreign

1334
01:50:17.000 --> 01:50:19.600
and documentary, but they've branched out
a lot in the last five years.

1335
01:50:19.640 --> 01:50:25.199
Nice. Nice, I'm guessing that
was a DVD subscription, yes, and

1336
01:50:25.239 --> 01:50:30.640
they I believe they still offer a
DVD subscription. Yeah, because people were

1337
01:50:30.640 --> 01:50:34.239
saying there were different prices for subscribers, I think, so that's neat.

1338
01:50:34.720 --> 01:50:39.319
Sick of myself, damn it.
I wanted that down to less than three

1339
01:50:39.399 --> 01:50:43.560
hundred that's not going out of print, right, it's just going to have

1340
01:50:43.600 --> 01:50:55.720
a standard edition cript all right,
but it's not going to have the booklet

1341
01:51:00.039 --> 01:51:03.239
for Sabrina Stent or Sabina Stent.
I think it's the name booklet's going to

1342
01:51:03.279 --> 01:51:09.239
be gone. Sodom Double Features twenty
two dollars on film movement. Which Sodom

1343
01:51:09.319 --> 01:51:11.720
double feature. I don't know what
that is, but it sounds good to

1344
01:51:11.760 --> 01:51:15.000
me. Oh, this one all
the sense of sodom and vibrations? Is

1345
01:51:15.039 --> 01:51:25.960
that born? That's not a disparaging
question, by the way, I don't

1346
01:51:25.960 --> 01:51:30.920
know. Looks good to me.
I use the word now. Jeremy just

1347
01:51:30.920 --> 01:51:35.680
got charge sales tax after the fact, so maybe I should. Yeah,

1348
01:51:35.840 --> 01:51:39.399
if you're comfortable sharing, how did
that show up? Did your bank just

1349
01:51:39.439 --> 01:51:41.800
hit you with something? Did they
email you or what? Because I should

1350
01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:48.119
be looking out for that too,
because it will affect my shopping checking my

1351
01:51:48.239 --> 01:52:00.000
phone. Yeah, I don't have
anything yet. I won't have anything because

1352
01:52:00.000 --> 01:52:21.800
I haven't purchased anything. Yeah,
interesting and simnar it can't check out.

1353
01:52:24.000 --> 01:52:30.680
I guess they're getting their tax situation
fixed. Could be don't got it in

1354
01:52:30.720 --> 01:52:39.840
place an order yet. I guess
I'll hang out see what happens. Oh

1355
01:52:39.920 --> 01:52:43.720
okay, not after the fact.
Just went to make a partner label order

1356
01:52:43.720 --> 01:52:47.000
and now being charged tax I see, let's see what happens when I try

1357
01:52:47.000 --> 01:52:53.319
that. Will VSL titles be restocked? I don't have any currently in collectors

1358
01:52:53.399 --> 01:52:57.159
mentality would kill me. Uh they
should be. Yeah, I don't think.

1359
01:52:57.199 --> 01:53:00.239
I don't think those are one run
only. I think they're just you

1360
01:53:00.279 --> 01:53:06.520
know, limited slips and that's it. So Flesh and Fantasies has sold out

1361
01:53:08.920 --> 01:53:15.239
all together. I have that one, which is nice. So yeah,

1362
01:53:15.279 --> 01:53:18.960
it doesn't say anything about it not
coming back. It's just between print runs

1363
01:53:19.039 --> 01:53:28.279
right now. Okay, Yeah,
I got taxes on my on this order

1364
01:53:28.319 --> 01:53:30.720
that I've pretended to play. Well, I just got a bunch of points.

1365
01:53:30.800 --> 01:53:39.039
Nice, I mean that makes sense. And yeah, there was a

1366
01:53:39.039 --> 01:53:42.319
whole calculating shipping screen before it takes
me to PayPal this time, and that

1367
01:53:42.319 --> 01:53:45.079
didn't happen with the subscription. So
I don't understand that, but I will

1368
01:53:45.079 --> 01:54:11.000
take it. Hmm interesting. M
I'd still like to know what's going on

1369
01:54:11.079 --> 01:54:14.720
with AGFA. Me too. I'm
a little worried about that. I like

1370
01:54:14.800 --> 01:54:34.399
AGFA a lot. I was reading
more of Caveman's comments. Additional Nerdy Talk

1371
01:54:34.479 --> 01:54:39.840
DVD paints five hundred lines of resolution
versus blue rays ten eighty lines. For

1372
01:54:39.960 --> 01:54:43.760
reference, Old school cable TV would
provide one hundred and sixty line, satellite

1373
01:54:43.800 --> 01:54:46.760
old days one hundred and eighty to
two hundred lines, and vhs, depending

1374
01:54:46.800 --> 01:54:50.760
on recording speed, would only provide
eighty to one hundred and fifty lines,

1375
01:54:51.039 --> 01:54:55.479
which is why cheaply made vhs would
look very muddy. Just to fill in

1376
01:54:55.479 --> 01:55:04.479
the missing information, your set would
duplicate those lines. Absolutely funny. I

1377
01:55:04.520 --> 01:55:13.640
wonder who that could be. Oh, that's hilarious. Can you call vinegar

1378
01:55:13.720 --> 01:55:18.880
syndrome? But that would be really
funny, just like hello, hello,

1379
01:55:19.039 --> 01:55:26.960
vinegar syndrome. Could I complain please
Jesus? Their number is two one zero

1380
01:55:27.079 --> 01:55:32.439
vinegar? No, no, no, no, no, slipcover. That's

1381
01:55:32.479 --> 01:55:40.840
too many digits? How many did? Yeah, it'd be like one slipcover

1382
01:55:40.920 --> 01:55:45.840
or something with the area code.
He's got Oliver on speed dial. Who's

1383
01:55:45.880 --> 01:55:48.840
Oliver? I don't know who that
is either. Maybe that's a government figure

1384
01:55:49.119 --> 01:55:56.199
that I should have known about.
Oh that's funny. Sooner says. His

1385
01:55:56.279 --> 01:56:01.199
phone worked, but his computer did
not. That seems to happen sometimes,

1386
01:56:02.000 --> 01:56:04.760
especially when they made that app.
Sometimes it works on the app and not

1387
01:56:04.880 --> 01:56:10.279
on the website. Does anybody know
why the stock counts don't show up on

1388
01:56:10.279 --> 01:56:19.479
the app? Because that's really frustrating
and I don't understand that. Also,

1389
01:56:19.640 --> 01:56:24.239
I also am confused about the relationship
between Aqua and Bleeding Skull. I thought

1390
01:56:24.239 --> 01:56:28.960
that they were kind of like similar
entities in some way. I believe they

1391
01:56:29.000 --> 01:56:32.840
are similar entities that work together sometimes, but they are still separated. Mhm.

1392
01:56:38.439 --> 01:56:42.640
Something weird. Got a lot of
coverage in that documentary. Sure,

1393
01:56:43.960 --> 01:56:45.880
and it made me a little confused
as to what it is they do now

1394
01:56:47.000 --> 01:56:51.680
because it's like all their stuff comes
out through other labels. I guess the

1395
01:56:53.279 --> 01:57:00.560
restoration and maybe they have a massive, massive archive. Gotcha, gotcha?

1396
01:57:01.239 --> 01:57:05.640
Yeah, Josie a creative bleeding school
and he works for AGFA. Bleeding Skull

1397
01:57:05.720 --> 01:57:12.199
is a hard ass title for what
that's worth, sure is, Well,

1398
01:57:12.239 --> 01:57:16.640
we have to hit two hours now. I will not allow that. So

1399
01:57:17.640 --> 01:57:24.600
ask us questions or something, or
maybe we can take a look at a

1400
01:57:24.600 --> 01:57:30.279
partner label we haven't seen yet.
Did we look at that one? Yeah?

1401
01:57:30.479 --> 01:57:33.680
Yeah, Sex and Broadcasting. Did
he look at that one? I

1402
01:57:33.760 --> 01:57:39.920
did? And it sounds super interesting. Sex and Broadcasting is a human and

1403
01:57:40.000 --> 01:57:45.279
humorous look at New Jersey's WFMU,
a radio station that refuses any programming boundaries.

1404
01:57:45.319 --> 01:57:48.279
Most of its DJs are unpaid volunteers
working for their love of surprising,

1405
01:57:48.359 --> 01:57:54.760
spontaneous radio. They play everything from
flat out uncategorizable strangeness to every form of

1406
01:57:54.840 --> 01:57:58.880
rock and roll, experimental music,
jazz, psychedelia, hip hop, hand

1407
01:57:58.880 --> 01:58:01.560
cranked wax cylinders, gospel, Inuit
marching bands, R and B, C

1408
01:58:01.720 --> 01:58:06.279
and W, radio improvisations, spoken
word collages, and throat singers of the

1409
01:58:06.279 --> 01:58:11.279
Lower east Side. Their captain is
station manager Ken Friedman, who has spent

1410
01:58:11.319 --> 01:58:15.800
the past three decades keeping WFMU alive, independent and one of a kind.

1411
01:58:15.159 --> 01:58:20.119
The film weaves personal stories of their
eccentric DJs with an exploration the twenty first

1412
01:58:20.159 --> 01:58:25.800
century media landscape that has made the
station such a rarity. Can WFMU stay

1413
01:58:25.840 --> 01:58:32.119
on the air and stay true to
its independent spirit? Interesting regent free tour

1414
01:58:32.159 --> 01:58:38.720
of their library at home with the
DJs, We've got booklet with an essay

1415
01:58:38.720 --> 01:58:44.319
by the director, essay by Dave
the Spaz Maybe you should consider changing that

1416
01:58:44.439 --> 01:58:47.479
name. How I Got here,
Why I Stayed essay by Irwin Chusyd The

1417
01:58:47.479 --> 01:58:57.920
Genesis of Sex and Broadcasting Essay by
Lorenzo W. Malam. Okay, we

1418
01:58:57.960 --> 01:59:01.760
have a recommendation for this. Uh, we have two questions. Sevener wants

1419
01:59:01.760 --> 01:59:04.640
to know what label we would like
a subscription from, and he wants one

1420
01:59:04.640 --> 01:59:09.399
for fucking Keno. I don't know
how on earth you would sustain that unless

1421
01:59:09.439 --> 01:59:12.880
you are like a little millionaire.
Leave it's like six ninety five per title.

1422
01:59:14.119 --> 01:59:16.640
Even then that's a lot of money. It's like ten titles or something,

1423
01:59:16.720 --> 01:59:19.840
or like fifty for a month or
whatever. Like, Yeah, good

1424
01:59:19.840 --> 01:59:24.199
lord, I think they Is it
accurate to say they put out in a

1425
01:59:24.199 --> 01:59:29.039
month what VS puts out in a
year? Like probably slightly less, but

1426
01:59:29.119 --> 01:59:30.600
not by much. I mean it
depends on the month. But yeah,

1427
01:59:30.600 --> 01:59:34.359
I think you're right. And then
where we've been asked if Malosine will do

1428
01:59:34.359 --> 01:59:38.159
a subscription. I really wish,
like I would like that. I would

1429
01:59:38.159 --> 01:59:43.079
sign up for it, but I
guess not. Nick Newland was halfway sub

1430
01:59:43.079 --> 01:59:45.439
Should I own Freeway two? You
want to talk about that one? Freeway

1431
01:59:45.439 --> 01:59:48.399
two is really good. Yeah.
If you like the first one, I

1432
01:59:48.399 --> 01:59:50.760
think you'll like the second one.
It's not as good. It's different,

1433
01:59:50.800 --> 01:59:55.239
but it's it's really good. I
like it, so yes, I recommend

1434
01:59:55.279 --> 02:00:01.560
it now. I agree about a
per time average Keino subscription would be a

1435
02:00:01.680 --> 02:00:06.279
very good deal, but just the
sheer volume would add up immensely quickly.

1436
02:00:08.800 --> 02:00:12.079
And I haven't heard anybody talk about
the night Flight app in a long time.

1437
02:00:13.159 --> 02:00:16.680
I don't know what that is.
It's got uh if I remember right,

1438
02:00:16.720 --> 02:00:21.000
it's got like old TV broadcast stuff
that they it's really hard to get

1439
02:00:21.039 --> 02:00:28.199
licensing stuff for. Mm hmm.
What other label would you like a sub

1440
02:00:28.279 --> 02:00:34.640
for? I understand Keno, but
I don't know. Something like Imprint,

1441
02:00:34.680 --> 02:00:39.840
if it would be cheaper, would
be a good one. Maybe Indicator.

1442
02:00:39.880 --> 02:00:47.640
I like Indicator, Yeah, oh
I would. If we're talking partner labels,

1443
02:00:47.680 --> 02:00:51.199
like I would sub to Deaf Crocodile
in a heartbeat, honestly. Yeah.

1444
02:00:51.199 --> 02:00:54.720
The thing I'm thinking of is mostly
partner labels, like if they wanted

1445
02:00:54.760 --> 02:00:58.000
to do a cheaper suboption some of
them, I just am all in on

1446
02:00:58.079 --> 02:01:01.600
them so and now altered Innocence,
I would probably sign up for a subscription

1447
02:01:01.680 --> 02:01:05.560
with them. Yep, fun City, I probably do that. I mean

1448
02:01:05.600 --> 02:01:10.720
these are all relatives to their price
points, obviously, yeah, this is

1449
02:01:10.720 --> 02:01:13.079
what I want it, because you
seem very confident that they won't do it.

1450
02:01:13.119 --> 02:01:15.840
I'm a little bit confused as to
their business model because they print like

1451
02:01:15.880 --> 02:01:20.239
three thousand on their titles and stuff
and they don't get close to selling out,

1452
02:01:20.439 --> 02:01:23.640
and I don't quite understand that,
Like I think you would want to

1453
02:01:23.680 --> 02:01:27.119
incentivize purchasing it through a subscription or
something. I don't know if you have

1454
02:01:27.159 --> 02:01:30.279
more insight on that. I don't
on that. I just know that they've

1455
02:01:30.279 --> 02:01:32.680
said in the past they it's not
always a guarantee that they can release the

1456
02:01:32.720 --> 02:01:36.359
numbers that they're planning on, so
because it's too volatile, they just won't

1457
02:01:36.399 --> 02:01:40.640
And that's that's the same with Severn. Like, honestly, Severn is kind

1458
02:01:40.640 --> 02:01:45.039
of a big deal for me.
I would love a severance subscription, but

1459
02:01:45.239 --> 02:01:48.119
because they can't engauge what they're going
to release because stuff changes so dramatically,

1460
02:01:48.479 --> 02:01:54.560
they'll never be able to do one. Okay, I mean, there's there's

1461
02:01:54.600 --> 02:01:57.760
a title Severn's putting out in the
next couple months. That's kind of common

1462
02:01:57.800 --> 02:02:00.600
knowledge that they have now that they
planned a real least a very long time

1463
02:02:00.640 --> 02:02:04.239
ago, like a year ago and
a couple things happened and had just delayed

1464
02:02:04.239 --> 02:02:24.720
it till this year. Yeah,
uh, manser Fast. I always love

1465
02:02:24.800 --> 02:02:27.760
to promote them. Lots of rare
something weird titles on the night Flight app

1466
02:02:27.760 --> 02:02:31.000
and the full night Flight broadcast with
the original commercial breaks is awesome. Indeed,

1467
02:02:32.039 --> 02:02:39.960
m fun City would be a good
one to sub to. Reggie says,

1468
02:02:39.960 --> 02:02:43.760
I've lost track of fun City any
recommendations for recent releases. They have

1469
02:02:43.960 --> 02:02:46.520
not dropped quality at all. All
of their stuff that they've released since they've

1470
02:02:46.600 --> 02:02:51.439
left has been incredible. The big
thing is people just kind of forgot about

1471
02:02:51.439 --> 02:02:56.079
them since they weren't on the OCEN
page, and that sucks. Sucks a

1472
02:02:56.119 --> 02:02:59.000
lot. I also think that they
probably need a little help with marketing.

1473
02:02:59.279 --> 02:03:03.159
They've not been doing real great with
that since they left. Party Girls really

1474
02:03:03.159 --> 02:03:05.840
good. I like that one a
lot. Unfortunately, it's the only one

1475
02:03:05.920 --> 02:03:10.239
I have, so I'm part of
the problem here and it's the only one

1476
02:03:10.239 --> 02:03:15.600
I can recommend. Jesus Christ Terry
just posted reviewing the Kino Email yesterday.

1477
02:03:15.640 --> 02:03:18.640
In twenty twenty three, they released
twenty four or four k's and two hundred

1478
02:03:18.680 --> 02:03:27.279
and forty Blu rays I, so
that works out too. I don't know

1479
02:03:27.279 --> 02:03:30.960
how to do math. That's a
lot per month. It is basically a

1480
02:03:31.000 --> 02:03:41.720
two thirds of a vinegar syndrome output
per month. Nice, that's insanity.

1481
02:03:43.319 --> 02:03:45.720
Ryan is leaving. Thanks for a
fun chat this morning. We'll work on

1482
02:03:45.800 --> 02:03:49.640
confirming a Ben Shapiro's dad didn't score
for evil lappit apart back. Well,

1483
02:03:49.720 --> 02:03:54.920
Ryan, you are the hard hitting
journalism we're known for. Let us know

1484
02:03:55.000 --> 02:03:57.680
the discord everybody. If you want
the definitive answer for that, check the

1485
02:03:57.720 --> 02:04:00.600
discord soon. Yep, yep,
yep. Imagine the cost of it,

1486
02:04:00.760 --> 02:04:04.560
John, I appreciate that. Imagine
the cost of an imprint subscription. Yeah,

1487
02:04:04.640 --> 02:04:08.760
it would not be cheap with how
many box sets they have released this

1488
02:04:08.840 --> 02:04:15.880
year and how many day of coming
this year? Oh boy? Why do

1489
02:04:15.960 --> 02:04:18.560
some vendors charge sales tax and others
don't? It depends on how much sales

1490
02:04:18.600 --> 02:04:26.159
they had in that state in the
previous year. What the fuck? Sorry,

1491
02:04:26.159 --> 02:04:30.359
I'm reading the description for cleaners.
Did you go to that one?

1492
02:04:30.600 --> 02:04:34.119
Yeah? Uh, Celesti, you're
being asked, do you have any opinions

1493
02:04:34.159 --> 02:04:36.680
on the lost picture show set?
I binged the whole thing over the weekend

1494
02:04:36.680 --> 02:04:42.079
for a video on my channel,
says fast. So I just started it

1495
02:04:42.239 --> 02:04:45.680
yesterday or the day before. I
watched the documentary that's on it, which

1496
02:04:45.680 --> 02:04:48.399
is excellent, and I hope they
do a standalone release for it, because

1497
02:04:48.399 --> 02:04:53.560
I think they'd better be something people
would be interested in. I will say

1498
02:04:53.600 --> 02:04:56.119
the layout of it is a little
more confusing than it should be, Like

1499
02:04:56.159 --> 02:04:59.359
it's it took me a while to
track down on like what disc that documentary

1500
02:04:59.479 --> 02:05:02.960
was on. There's how much leand
there's no discard telling you what's on what.

1501
02:05:03.119 --> 02:05:06.520
It's just it's not difficult to find
these things out. It's just should

1502
02:05:06.560 --> 02:05:11.399
be easier. I think the packaging
is wonderful, it's beautiful. It's like,

1503
02:05:12.840 --> 02:05:17.479
I don't know, I think it's
great. But I've only gotten halfway

1504
02:05:17.520 --> 02:05:21.720
through the first film because I fell
asleep last night. But I was really

1505
02:05:21.800 --> 02:05:25.920
enjoying it, and I think that
the whole concept of it is like incredible,

1506
02:05:26.000 --> 02:05:30.000
So highly recommend it. I don't
know, I think you should.

1507
02:05:30.079 --> 02:05:32.000
If you do have it, I
think you should start with a documentary.

1508
02:05:32.039 --> 02:05:38.239
It'll help contextualize it, it'll help
you get excited about it. I don't

1509
02:05:38.319 --> 02:05:46.760
understand why the documentary is not a
special feature on the first disc. It's

1510
02:05:46.760 --> 02:05:49.600
like on a random one, and
I feel like it should be like front

1511
02:05:49.640 --> 02:05:57.359
and center. Also, probably it
just feels weird. Also, I couldn't

1512
02:05:57.359 --> 02:06:00.319
figure out in what order they've curated
it, because I wanted to watch it

1513
02:06:00.319 --> 02:06:02.920
in order. But it's not like
chronological, it's not alphabetical. I'm a

1514
02:06:02.920 --> 02:06:11.680
little bit confused. So I don't
know about that. It's a very interesting

1515
02:06:11.720 --> 02:06:15.119
set, that's for sure. I
really liked the design of it. I

1516
02:06:15.880 --> 02:06:20.319
just wish that they did a little
better job with the really giving information on

1517
02:06:20.359 --> 02:06:26.159
what's in it and what disc you're
tracking down. And but again it's it's

1518
02:06:26.199 --> 02:06:29.680
lost media. There's not a lot
of information on this stuff. I will

1519
02:06:29.680 --> 02:06:33.920
say after watching the documentary, I
was super interested in like where these films

1520
02:06:33.920 --> 02:06:38.640
were found, and on the first
one anyway, I watched the introduction that

1521
02:06:38.760 --> 02:06:41.319
was done, and it was a
good introduction, like it kind of it

1522
02:06:41.359 --> 02:06:43.800
tells you the source of it,
and it tells you a little bit about

1523
02:06:43.840 --> 02:06:45.640
the film and like its themes.
But they didn't say where they found it,

1524
02:06:45.640 --> 02:06:48.319
and I was curious about that.
I would have liked to know what

1525
02:06:48.359 --> 02:06:56.479
state it was in when they found
it and that sort of thing. Diyske

1526
02:06:56.640 --> 02:06:58.960
did a video of that last year
too. I don't know if he did

1527
02:06:58.960 --> 02:07:01.880
one this year again, but yeah, Criterion has been slipping a bit,

1528
02:07:02.039 --> 02:07:05.000
Like I think it's easier to criticize
them than Vinegar Syndrome if I'm being honest.

1529
02:07:05.239 --> 02:07:11.199
Oh yeah. I was also thinking, like when I first got into

1530
02:07:11.239 --> 02:07:13.359
the Vineger Syndrome subscription, I was
like, I would love to also have

1531
02:07:13.399 --> 02:07:16.159
a Criterion one to just kind of
have a yin and yang sort of going

1532
02:07:16.239 --> 02:07:18.199
on there. I don't know what
the price on that would be, but

1533
02:07:18.239 --> 02:07:21.960
it would be nice to have as
an option. Yeah, if it was,

1534
02:07:23.319 --> 02:07:28.199
if it was the sale price minus
like ten and that that wouldn't be

1535
02:07:28.199 --> 02:07:30.840
awful. There are a good amount
of people that are buying all of them

1536
02:07:30.880 --> 02:07:43.720
already that would sign up instantly,
you know, will mm hmm. Yeah.

1537
02:07:43.880 --> 02:07:45.399
I have been a little bit confused
about some of the decisions in the

1538
02:07:45.399 --> 02:07:48.720
box set and it's layout and stuff, just because I wish there was more

1539
02:07:48.760 --> 02:07:53.039
information, I guess. But I
think it is a strong candidate for the

1540
02:07:53.079 --> 02:07:59.319
Best Release of the Year. I'll
just say that, yep, And you'll

1541
02:07:59.359 --> 02:08:01.600
be hearing a lot more about that
when you vote for the Shelf Shock Rewind

1542
02:08:01.640 --> 02:08:11.920
Awards. That's your homework. Well, yeah, well it makes sense that

1543
02:08:11.079 --> 02:08:15.039
you should do that. I don't
think I were a spear suggesting you buy

1544
02:08:15.079 --> 02:08:18.039
them as they come out. But
if with a subscription model, you wouldn't

1545
02:08:18.039 --> 02:08:20.119
have to wait, you would just
be right at your door every month.

1546
02:08:22.560 --> 02:08:26.760
Yep, absolutely said there. That's
my number one critique. Also, they're

1547
02:08:26.840 --> 02:08:30.319
lazy when it comes to subtitling their
stuff, and that makes me mad.

1548
02:08:31.199 --> 02:08:35.000
So I'm very curious about this video
right here, if you go to the

1549
02:08:35.039 --> 02:08:39.800
Southern Comfort page. I have a
feeling that this video from Oscar is going

1550
02:08:39.880 --> 02:08:46.279
to be very instrumental to teaching some
people about where these come from, how

1551
02:08:46.319 --> 02:08:52.439
much they have to work on them, how rough shape some of these come

1552
02:08:52.439 --> 02:08:56.399
in. And I think that people
are gonna love that video. I have

1553
02:08:56.439 --> 02:09:00.840
a feeling part of my conversation with
Oscar we were elluding. I brought something

1554
02:09:00.880 --> 02:09:03.359
up and he said, oh,
you should pay attention to the January releases.

1555
02:09:03.439 --> 02:09:07.399
I think this is what he was
talking about. Is it a four

1556
02:09:07.479 --> 02:09:11.399
K it is all VSUS or four
k's Okay, that's what I thought.

1557
02:09:13.039 --> 02:09:16.600
Yeah, yeah, that's right there. Okay. I don't know. The

1558
02:09:16.680 --> 02:09:20.800
vsus are tough for me because I'm
generally interested in at least seeing them,

1559
02:09:20.840 --> 02:09:24.119
but the price point is higher,
and they are I like how lavish the

1560
02:09:24.159 --> 02:09:26.760
additions are, but they take up
a lot of space, a ton of

1561
02:09:26.800 --> 02:09:33.800
space. So and even as a
subscriber, it's what thirty two bucks something

1562
02:09:33.840 --> 02:09:37.840
like that, which is reasonable.
I'm not gonna say that it should be

1563
02:09:37.920 --> 02:09:41.479
less, but like it's a lot. I like the educational videos as well.

1564
02:09:41.600 --> 02:09:46.039
I think they're fun, Like I
think Oscar is very funny. He

1565
02:09:46.119 --> 02:09:52.640
had a joke in the VS Walkthrough
Tour that is after the documentary. I

1566
02:09:52.640 --> 02:09:54.680
don't remember what it was, but
it made me laugh out loud. He

1567
02:09:54.720 --> 02:09:58.520
has a very dry sense of humor
that is on my wave length. Yeah,

1568
02:09:58.520 --> 02:10:05.840
he just not care. Mantrafast says
The Lost Picture Show is concept alone.

1569
02:10:05.880 --> 02:10:07.800
It's my favorite release of the year. Out of the whole set,

1570
02:10:07.880 --> 02:10:13.960
not one film was under three stars. Nice, the one I'm watching,

1571
02:10:15.039 --> 02:10:18.039
Barbara, the one I got halfway
through. It is definitely skirting the line

1572
02:10:18.079 --> 02:10:22.439
between like an art film and just
porn, which is interesting, but it's

1573
02:10:22.479 --> 02:10:24.880
doing that on purpose, Like if
you watch it like it's very much like

1574
02:10:24.920 --> 02:10:28.439
that's the point. But it did
have me wondering, like what is truly

1575
02:10:28.479 --> 02:10:33.960
the difference between those two things at
a certain point, I don't know.

1576
02:10:35.159 --> 02:10:37.960
But it looks beautiful. I just
love the aesthetic of it. It's just

1577
02:10:37.960 --> 02:10:41.479
like a super grainy like black and
white image, and it just I think

1578
02:10:41.479 --> 02:10:45.319
it looks great. I feel like
I'm at like a grindhouse screening of like

1579
02:10:45.479 --> 02:10:48.680
a film that no one has ever
seen before that's like really weird and it's

1580
02:10:48.720 --> 02:10:54.640
fun. Saturn's Core, yeah,
I mean, you'd have it. You

1581
02:10:54.960 --> 02:11:01.119
had a slight opportunity for that at
their partner label sale because they've just had

1582
02:11:01.159 --> 02:11:03.720
bundles of their stuff. I feel
a little bit bad for Saturn's Core.

1583
02:11:03.800 --> 02:11:09.119
I feel like they have been on
the chopping block almost in that like they're

1584
02:11:09.119 --> 02:11:11.680
trying to get rid of a lot
of that back catalog because I think they

1585
02:11:11.039 --> 02:11:18.840
overestimated how much they would sell.
That's true, and that's I mean they

1586
02:11:18.880 --> 02:11:22.000
went. They dropped from two thousand
to one thousand for pretty much all their

1587
02:11:22.000 --> 02:11:30.680
releases now. And I get it. Slipcovers aren't cheap. Yeah, I

1588
02:11:30.680 --> 02:11:35.039
think they're like three dollars apiece.
That costs a little more if I remember,

1589
02:11:35.119 --> 02:11:41.560
it's like three twenty five ish and
then plus shipping for everything, and

1590
02:11:41.600 --> 02:11:46.760
you're getting a freakin palette, I'm
sure from any of those. Yeah.

1591
02:11:48.000 --> 02:11:50.239
All right, looks like we're winding
down. Yeah, we hit the two

1592
02:11:50.279 --> 02:11:52.000
hours, so we're good on that. Yeah, even though we still have

1593
02:11:52.000 --> 02:11:56.399
one hundred people watching. Any other
questions, comments, anything that we need

1594
02:11:56.439 --> 02:12:07.079
to cover for anybody steal Bog of
Fog City. I don't know what that

1595
02:12:07.159 --> 02:12:13.560
is. That's the same company that
did kill her goats the week I feel

1596
02:12:13.600 --> 02:12:20.920
like, no, there's a few
people that genuinely like to kill her goats,

1597
02:12:20.920 --> 02:12:24.840
which is interesting. I mean,
sure something for everyone. People are

1598
02:12:24.840 --> 02:12:30.680
telling me that they likes Curse of
the Screaming Dad, so you know which

1599
02:12:30.680 --> 02:12:33.960
I think is fascinating, like genuinely, Like I watched that and I couldn't

1600
02:12:33.359 --> 02:12:35.600
find anything to like about it,
And people are like, well I liked

1601
02:12:35.600 --> 02:12:39.600
it, Like cool, you know
what I'm that for? You like,

1602
02:12:39.760 --> 02:12:46.680
it's out people, some people should
like it, right, Yeah, Well,

1603
02:12:46.880 --> 02:12:50.239
uh, what partner labels are you
most excited about? In twenty twenty

1604
02:12:50.279 --> 02:12:56.880
four? Yellow Veil I like Yellowville
a lot. In terms of the new

1605
02:12:56.920 --> 02:13:01.800
ones, I mean, Bleeding Skull
seems to be coming out swinging. I

1606
02:13:01.800 --> 02:13:05.079
don't know There's really not a lot
that I'm not actively excited about, So

1607
02:13:05.119 --> 02:13:09.359
it's more of like which one I'm
not excited about, and I would prefer

1608
02:13:09.439 --> 02:13:13.680
not to just shit on things,
So I'll like that cave Man just passively

1609
02:13:13.680 --> 02:13:18.800
aggressively did for you, you know
what, I will die on that hill

1610
02:13:18.920 --> 02:13:22.560
like I will take that take to
my grave that that's like one of the

1611
02:13:22.560 --> 02:13:26.560
best horror films ever made and people
are wrong about it. Thank you.

1612
02:13:26.479 --> 02:13:33.000
I appreciate that. Yeah, Yellow
Bill's very up there for me. The

1613
02:13:33.079 --> 02:13:39.800
catalog has been on an interesting run. Deaf Crocodile always Saturn's Core has had

1614
02:13:39.840 --> 02:13:43.359
some really good interesting ones this year
after they got away from some of the

1615
02:13:43.399 --> 02:13:50.359
wave stuff, you know, I
f C. I'm probably the most excited

1616
02:13:50.399 --> 02:13:52.760
about just to see what they have
in store, because they have a good

1617
02:13:52.760 --> 02:13:58.159
catalog. Jeremy, I'm sure there
is someone out there who likes slash dance.

1618
02:13:58.199 --> 02:14:07.000
I would be confused by that,
but that's okay. Yeah, lots

1619
02:14:07.039 --> 02:14:09.159
of good stuff on the partner label
side, too literally, like you said,

1620
02:14:09.199 --> 02:14:22.560
too much of a good stuff.
I think that's that's it. Oh,

1621
02:14:22.680 --> 02:14:31.399
Connie Connie's Yeah, they're pretty consistently
like winners. I think vhs hit

1622
02:14:31.439 --> 02:14:35.760
fast is pretty much always great.
Yeah, I like them. A lot

1623
02:14:37.159 --> 02:14:45.119
Factory twenty five is great recommendation for
scrapbook from so. I've heard some pretty

1624
02:14:45.479 --> 02:14:48.840
stark mixed things about that one.
I'm definitely interested in seeing it, maybe

1625
02:14:48.880 --> 02:14:54.079
not purchasing it. I would take
a second site subscription, but it would

1626
02:14:54.079 --> 02:15:07.720
have to be consistent and cheaper.
Second sight is pricey. H Yeah,

1627
02:15:07.159 --> 02:15:13.880
what Will's talking about? A cat
movie theme for January did not include any

1628
02:15:13.880 --> 02:15:18.800
Deaf Crocodile titles. How do we
protest? Well, it sounds like Deaf

1629
02:15:18.840 --> 02:15:26.960
Crocodile needs to shoot them an email. They license some some of the partner

1630
02:15:26.000 --> 02:15:31.600
label stuff for the for the channel
for the limited engagements. I could absolutely

1631
02:15:31.640 --> 02:15:35.279
see that if I don't know what
kind of language they have in their contracts

1632
02:15:35.279 --> 02:15:39.800
for streaming that kind of thing.
But I can't imagine that Criterion wouldn't be

1633
02:15:39.800 --> 02:15:41.920
interested in some of that, especially
that art house animation stuff that they have.

1634
02:15:43.640 --> 02:15:46.039
Yeah, that cat movie bundle looks
like so much fun. I'm a

1635
02:15:46.039 --> 02:15:54.520
big fan, Adam, what'd you
get? I'd be curious about that.

1636
02:16:03.319 --> 02:16:05.359
Speaking of old muddy vhs, we
would never have thought the standy by the

1637
02:16:05.359 --> 02:16:11.439
curtains and three Men and a Baby
for coast and rifle handle. I don't

1638
02:16:11.520 --> 02:16:13.079
understand that kind. I've not seen
that one. You gotta see that.

1639
02:16:13.319 --> 02:16:16.840
Have you ever seen Three Men in
a Baby? A long time ago?

1640
02:16:18.239 --> 02:16:22.800
To the extent that I don't remember
anything about it. There's a conspiracy of

1641
02:16:22.359 --> 02:16:30.039
there's a standy that they thought was
somebody or it's meant to look like a

1642
02:16:30.119 --> 02:16:33.879
rifle handle or whatever. I don't
remember what it's supposed to be. Uh

1643
02:16:33.959 --> 02:16:37.959
No, we don't have a date
for handgun. That would be nice.

1644
02:16:41.239 --> 02:16:46.879
Cats would be fun on the Critsirian
channel. I gotta say Cats is a

1645
02:16:46.879 --> 02:16:52.879
good actually a really good reference point
for just how bizarre and uncanny and like

1646
02:16:52.280 --> 02:16:56.680
how much of a horror show.
I think the Polar expresses. I would

1647
02:16:56.719 --> 02:17:00.440
put those two films at about the
same level in terms of how on comfortable

1648
02:17:00.559 --> 02:17:07.600
viewing they are. The Strangler,
Urinian Dreams and The War Is Over Nice.

1649
02:17:09.040 --> 02:17:16.159
That's a good haul, Sandra.
Cat is crazy. That came out

1650
02:17:16.200 --> 02:17:22.799
from second round, I believe,
and pretty much everything from second run is

1651
02:17:24.040 --> 02:17:33.840
regent free. Usually the rumor for
Three Men in a Baby was that it

1652
02:17:33.879 --> 02:17:37.840
was the ghost of a boy who
died in the apartment. His mom apparently

1653
02:17:37.920 --> 02:17:39.959
sought in the theater and freaked out. According to Lore, Now we can

1654
02:17:41.000 --> 02:17:46.719
just see that it's a standy,
so there wouldn't be this conspiracy if it

1655
02:17:46.760 --> 02:18:07.200
wasn't muddy on VHS. Mm hmm, I see. Okay, okay,

1656
02:18:07.399 --> 02:18:09.440
No, not for this month.
There's not a film Desk release. I

1657
02:18:09.479 --> 02:18:11.559
don't think there's even a book either. I didn't see anything new on that

1658
02:18:11.639 --> 02:18:20.680
side of things. Question. Do
those novelizations do they go out of print

1659
02:18:20.680 --> 02:18:24.360
when they're done, or do some
of them come back? I think some

1660
02:18:24.399 --> 02:18:28.120
of them have come back because I'm
interested in there, for Bi Zone and

1661
02:18:28.200 --> 02:18:30.879
Inland Empire. I would like to
read those. Inland Empire has already sold

1662
02:18:30.879 --> 02:18:31.879
out, so I'm out of luck
on that. But I'm wondering how much

1663
02:18:31.879 --> 02:18:35.959
I should prioritize for Bidden Zone.
Well a lot of times too. You

1664
02:18:35.959 --> 02:18:39.399
can find these in other places,
not just on the VS website. Oh

1665
02:18:39.399 --> 02:18:41.840
okay, cool, all right,
I'm not too worried about it. Then

1666
02:18:52.520 --> 02:18:56.079
cool? Should we do our plugs? Yeah? Why don't you go ahead

1667
02:18:56.120 --> 02:19:01.760
first? Okay? I have a
pretty ambition just video release schedule planned for

1668
02:19:01.840 --> 02:19:05.600
the rest of the month, so
hopefully I can get at least half of

1669
02:19:05.600 --> 02:19:11.840
that done, hopefully planning on doing
well. It'll all I'm gonna make a

1670
02:19:11.920 --> 02:19:15.760
video kind of outlining the state of
the channel and what I plan on doing

1671
02:19:15.760 --> 02:19:18.000
in the year, so it'll all
be there. But suffice it to say,

1672
02:19:18.319 --> 02:19:22.120
my plans are rather ambitious, and
I hope I don't set myself up

1673
02:19:22.159 --> 02:19:26.360
for failure, but it should be
at least something, right. There's also

1674
02:19:26.520 --> 02:19:31.799
my Patreon, which I would appreciate
you taking a look at. There's lots

1675
02:19:31.799 --> 02:19:35.440
of fun benefits over there. It
would help me in this venture and in

1676
02:19:37.360 --> 02:19:39.760
paying my bills and I would greatly
appreciate that. And it's linked in the

1677
02:19:39.760 --> 02:19:43.920
description, so go click there.
It is yeah, on both of ours,

1678
02:19:43.000 --> 02:19:48.600
I think, and that's it I
think for me. I think you

1679
02:19:48.600 --> 02:19:50.000
should also, just if you're not
subscribed to Ryan, I don't know what

1680
02:19:50.000 --> 02:19:52.319
you're doing, you should go ahead
and do that. And I'm sure you

1681
02:19:52.399 --> 02:19:58.159
have a laundry list of things planned
for the immediate and near future to what

1682
02:19:58.360 --> 02:20:01.520
you take over on that. Most
stuff I'm not even able to talk about,

1683
02:20:01.559 --> 02:20:05.799
so I will just say pay attention
to the shelf shock rewind Awards handles.

1684
02:20:07.239 --> 02:20:09.840
We got the link for voting going
out this evening. It's going to

1685
02:20:09.879 --> 02:20:13.920
be a pretty wild award show this
year. There's going to be a lot

1686
02:20:13.959 --> 02:20:18.639
more that we're trying to not necessarily
just do better, but like expand and

1687
02:20:18.639 --> 02:20:22.479
make this a bigger thing for everybody
and try to make it just go all

1688
02:20:22.520 --> 02:20:26.639
out for everybody. Pay attention to
that. We got some releases that someone's

1689
02:20:26.639 --> 02:20:31.639
favorite has been announced on in the
coming months coming out. Film Masters,

1690
02:20:31.639 --> 02:20:35.639
I think, is the next release
that's dropping, unless there's surprise drops that

1691
02:20:35.719 --> 02:20:37.719
I don't know about that will come
out out of nowhere. The newest,

1692
02:20:39.360 --> 02:20:43.680
Newest episode, newest issue of the
Physical Media Advocate is available digitally on Amazon

1693
02:20:43.760 --> 02:20:46.440
right now or through the Patreon.
It will be available on physical, but

1694
02:20:46.559 --> 02:20:52.719
Amazon is a bitch basically, and
they've already denied it three different times because

1695
02:20:52.760 --> 02:20:58.600
they like certain things like my barcode
is too close to text, and even

1696
02:20:58.600 --> 02:21:00.680
when I fix it, they say, nope, still not good enough and

1697
02:21:00.719 --> 02:21:03.639
stuff like that. So I've been
working on the two compendium issues for the

1698
02:21:03.719 --> 02:21:07.600
last six weeks and those have each
been denied like seven times each. So

1699
02:21:09.200 --> 02:21:11.639
they'll be coming soon. Yeah,
It's very frustrating, especially when I need

1700
02:21:11.680 --> 02:21:16.920
to do like nineteen other things.
Other than that, I also have a

1701
02:21:16.959 --> 02:21:20.840
Patreon Lincoln the description below. Please
check that out. Most of the stuff

1702
02:21:20.840 --> 02:21:22.239
that I do you can get access
to through that as part of it.

1703
02:21:22.840 --> 02:21:26.479
And yeah, we got a show
coming out on Thursday. Will will be

1704
02:21:26.520 --> 02:21:28.760
the guest again. Of course,
it's the first Thursday of the month.

1705
02:21:28.760 --> 02:21:35.000
We'll be covering all these announcements and
fun stuff. And that's about it for

1706
02:21:35.040 --> 02:21:41.799
now. It's too much. Thank
you all for hanging out. Yeah,

1707
02:21:41.879 --> 02:21:43.920
Celeste will be back on I'm sure
for the Venger Syndrome sale in May,

1708
02:21:45.479 --> 02:21:50.639
and probably at least one or twelve
things before then as a Valentine's Day sale.

1709
02:21:50.440 --> 02:21:56.440
Too many sales my specialty. All
right, everybody, thanks for hanging

1710
02:21:56.440 --> 02:21:58.360
out. Have a good New Year. I know it's a big deal.

1711
02:21:58.879 --> 02:22:05.280
Here's a better one than twenty twenty
three. Yeah, thanks so yea
