Nice idea.

Thanks for the lovely comment! It’s made my day. Cheers!

Amen to that. Cheers for watching!

Yea I’d love to get my hands on that one sometime soon! Cheers :)

My pleasure, thanks for watching!

Cheers Terry!

Thanks so much for the support, my friend!

I’d love it if that became a regular thing for blu-ray packaging!

I hope you really enjoy it Ryan! Cheers

you're able to preorder a few of their films on amazon rn. Not sure how that will go, it does suck it's not in the US.

At least they ship overseas! Just get a region-free Blu-Ray player from 220-electronics for a hundo and your're good to go.

Hi Shane. That’s a great idea, cheers for that!

Even though I love how good a 4K can look and sound, blu-ray is still an excellent format and definitely good enough for me! Thanks for watching :)

Thanks so much!

Thanks Andrew! I’m intrigued by the partner labels discs too. I might have to get some of those!

yes, the first Altered Innocence release has gone up - Arrebato. The FoMO factor is stronger with this one, as it's only 1,000 copies with slipcover!

Very nice! Enjoy the film when you get it :)

I’m very excited for that set!

@@ElliotCoen particularly for the blu ray of 'how to kill a judge' which i have only ever saw on a blue underground dvd.

Hi Richard. Yes I’m really hoping I can pick up all of the future Radiance releases. If I can, I’ll definitely cover them on the channel. Cheers!

I hadn't heard that Kat was involved, although if so it's definitely another plus point. There are a couple of former Arrow people amongst the founders.

@@ShanghaiRooster Very cool, it's looking to be an exciting label

@@URBONED Indeed. The initial releases on the website look great. Someone has already mentioned the Franco Nero box set upcoming. That one went straight on my pre-orders when I saw it.

Yes I did know Kat was involved somehow but forgot to mention it! It’s a great sign for the future of the label. I’m surprised she didn’t make a commentary for Working Class givenher passion for Italian cinema and the politics of the film.

Absolutely.

It is very much worth investing in a Region-Free Blu-ray player.

@@TH3PH3N0M3NON true but I want a player that also plays 4K discs and that’s expensive.

We do that on a lot of releases!

FCE is a partner label of Radiance Films.

They are limited but reissues will follow without booklet/reversible sleeve and in a standard case.

@@radiancereleases Ah ok cool, thanks so much for the info!

These particular ones are region B releases but it appears that some will actually play in all regions if they are also getting a region A release, such as Big Time Gambling Boss here

Not yet but they’re coming apparently!

Not all are region B, some are region free like Man on the Roof and others are on sales in America like Big Time Gambling Boss and A Woman Kills. Details are on our website which indicates which titles are in America too.

@@radiancereleasesOk thanks for clarifying because Amazon US is where I'm going to buy from. Big Time Gambling Boss says Region B. Can I get a confirmation?

Definitely region A!

@@markgreene1162 Definitely region A!

@@radiancereleases Yes thank you got my copy in yesterday from Amazon. I'm a huge fan of Tomisaburo Wakayama ,Can't wait to watch it.

Working Class is but Big Time Gambling Boss is also available in US as we are a UK and US label. Our American operation runs through MVD

Interesting. The release date for that disc is said to be February 6th. Did you order and receive very early?

When the Limited editions go, they’ll reissue with a standard edition which will still be the great disc - the best presentation with great supplements, just like Criterion. I think the comparison to Criterion is perfectly fine. I’m not changing the title but thanks for watching!

I believe it's a legal requirement in Germany (and Australia) that such ugly ratings logos must be printed on the front of the artwork. Aesthetics evidently mean nothing to the men in grey suits in both countries.

@@ShanghaiRooster Yes, I know it's legally required, but to what point. If it's printed on an insert such as shown here, is not printed? I don't know if it's specified.

@@LennyNero2019 I managed to find a pdf file of the FSK rules (in English), which states... First some blurb about the size and position of the rating, ie, on packaging at least 1,200 square mm (3.46cm x 3.46cm), front side bottom left, and that it must have "integration into the printed area". "The rating can be integrated into the print copy (it need not be integrated into the artwork); alternatively, the rating can be applied to the case or cover with a permanent sticker (non dischargeable without assistive equipment). If the colour design of the background blocks out the square contour of the rating, it has to be optically delineated, eg., by a frame." Reading between the lines here, it would appear the law is that the rating must be a permanent feature on the front cover and not, as with these Radiance blu-rays, or on other UK issues with reversible inserts an 'optional' imposition on the artwork. In Britain it would appear that so long as the BBFC rating is visible at the point of purchase, that's all that matters. I don't have any German issues in my collection, so maybe someone who does could chime in if alternative artwork exists on German releases without the visible rating logo.

@@ShanghaiRooster Thanks for that, if they even allow a sticker, which can later be removed, then an insert is probably allowed anyway, only they didn't think of that. They print the same exact artwork on reverse, so that after buying you could flip it around, but adding such an insert on top is probably cheaper.

Someone didn’t watch the whole video….. 😂

Flick ahead in the video to see what I mean

@@ElliotCoen I don't think it matters if you can take it out... Why would they cover the art to begin with? I hope they get good titles.

@@ElliotCoen I can think of a bunch of film covers where that insert label/cover would literally cover up the film's title and stuff. Again: This is dumb.

@@warpathhok clearly it’s not for you then! Move on 😊
