I just picked up "Donovan's Reef" at our local Wal-Mart for $5. Can't beat that and its in the new packaging.

H.sanada, hope you get the new "official" releases soon. THATM is especially interesting with the 2 discs.

I have never seen The Barbarian and the Geisha. Is it scheduled to be released on DVD? Is there a place where one can go to find out what DVDs are scheduled to be released?

Thanks!

Hi Yakima1

The Barbarian and the Geisha has been rleased on DVD in both Region I and region 2 and probably all of the other regions as well.

I'm not sure of the American outlets but I'm sure one of you countrymen will inform you.
Welcome to the site and i hope you will enjoy yourself

There's one more that I can think of but I gotta go find it. Video ETA is kinda worthless, but I still use it occasionally.

I know it's available for region 2, but I am almost 100% positive that it has never been released in North America.... cause I would have it on DVD.

<Edit>I was partly right, it has never been released in North America but there's an import copy that's region 1 & 4 but the language on the DVD menu is PORTUGUESE.<edit>

Thank you much for the information!

I am glad I was finally able to be useful! :teeth_smile:

I believe you're mistaken about it being released in Region 1, Arthur. The "Barbarian and the Geisha" is one of my favorite JW movies and believe me, I'd be snapping it up if it had been released over here.

BTW, if a cousin across the pond would be kind enough to procure a Region 2 release and mail it to me, I'd be forever grateful. I'd also reimburse you for all costs. (Keith (Ethan) did this for me once before and it worked out well).

[Lt. Brannigan]

Ah, I see that I am not mistaken at all now. Cause like Stumpy said 'twere it on DVD we'd own it. At first though I have to admit that I thought I was slipping.

[smokey]

it is out in region 4 have it thought it was a good movie
cheers smokey

Hi Yak, another place you can try checking is at: www.deepdiscountdvd.com I have ordered quite a few items from there that are not sold anywhere locally or on a lot of dvd websites. Also, thet do not charge tax or shipping on their items and you can order 1 dvd or 500-and it's free shipping to you.

Take care and best regards.

PS, I "see" your from C.C. too!

Yeah, we found it "used and new" on Amazon, starting at around $24, as described above by Lt. Brannigan. FWIW, my first copy of Three Godfathers was in Portuguese, with the cover and DVD menu in Portuguese, but we could figure it out enough to play it in English.

Stumpy was looking for the place to ask a question or make an announcement about upcoming DVD releases, and couldn't find it. I found numerous threads about the subject, and with a little work, condensed it down to 2 threads, one regarding release of JW movies to DVD and the other about all other movies, in Off Topic Discussions.

I hope it helps a little.

I also found another, later thread,
'New DVD Releases'
which was in The Movies Reviews,
and I have also merged that into this one

[chester7777]

Thanks, Keith! We'll eventually round all the stray dvd release threads up and get 'em corralled in one of the two threads.
