Update #3
Our
Anniversary film event will be Saturday, November 14th at the Varsity
Theater (Time to be determined). Criterion has provided some dvds to
give away, and it is an award winning animated film for all ages. The
title will be unhidden November 1st. Here's a hint - 1920s jazz, San
Francisco and epic Hindu stories. $10, $8 prepaid at the store
(starting November 1st).
Update #2
This is a one time concession. The Brothers Bloom was released
"rental only" this last week or so. Yet our distributor is saying we
aren't a rental store but a sell-through retailer and can't order it
for us. It's.....frustrating.
The sell through date isn't until
2010. We are trying some other avenues to acquire it since....you
know......we ARE a rental store. But it isn't going well.
We
are giving you, dear customers, our full permission to rent this film
through corporate means based on the situation we find ourselves in. It
has been very frustrating and maddening for us and we're in a corner on
what we would have to give up in order to be able to purely order
'rental only' films (that don't release sellthrough on the same date) from our distributor. The dvd distributor has
minimal contact information available and the long shot email to the
director is just that, a hail mary.
Nurse Betty will be on the shelf soon, one new backstock on top of the one mentioned below.
Update
1: Wholphin Volume 9 is out now on the shelf this week. For those who
check each issue out, the new one is here. Some cool Spike
Jonze/Maurice Sendak stuff on it to coincide with the Where the Wild
Things Are film coming out.
----------
October releases
posted at the website. Make sure when you go to new releases your
looking at the month you want if your trying to see September's list.
Besides
The Score, really no new backstock. I have a list of backstock we'll
get next, but for most businesses it seems from different people I've
spoken with September was as bad a month as August was good, and that
held true for us, so no crazy backstock ordering.
