Here are the street dates and UPC info for the Film Crew releases. Once they hit retailers (I'll post links when they do) everyone should pre-order them. Studios always look to the pre-order numbers when deciding to release more. And first week sales are usually all they care about. I am not sure which (if any) retailers have the most clout, but I know Amazon works closely with studios and they are probably the biggest.

For some reason Deepdiscount has the street date listed as 07/17. I am sure that is wrong. They only recently added this listing and I think they have a typo.

Some cover art goodness from Satellite News:
(https://forum.rifftrax.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi122.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fo255%2FMrTorso%2F10379_KillersFromSpace_72.jpg&hash=1f60392df3312dfa41ae1cf5c309ce6e729675c4)
Sweet! thanks much for the heads up, Torso...
Awesome. Do any of the mods know if there's going to be anything else on these discs? Will we be able to watch the film sans commentary, for example?
Not sure, I can check with Mike but I'm not sure he'll even know. We might all find out like the rest of the world.
Personally I can't wait! I will definitely be buying copies of each, to let Shout! Factory know "We like!"
I can't wait either, should be great. Thanks Torso for the info! Torgos while your at it can you ask Mike if they filmed any segments ala the Showtime stuff to be shown before and or after the movie?
Geez they really got pushed back.
I forgot that DeepDiscount already has Hollywood After Dark up for pre-order so I amended the first post to reflect that. When the retailers update their sites I'll provide the links.
Sweet! Thanks so much for the heads up. I'll be pre-ordering these very soon ;)
awesme! :D Didnt know the 2nd disc was going to be released so soon after the first one. Cant wait!
Both are on Amazon.com for pre-order at $13.99 each.
My orders have just been placed! Summer will be nice after all.

Excellent! I've just done the same. $41??? Dang postage costs...
I either missed them last night or they updated today. I got the Amazon links there. Tell your friends!!
Pre ordering complete. I love amazon gift certificates. It's the best gift, as far as thoughtless gifts go.
Amazon has raised the price to $17.99. Which kind of stinks. I assume if you already pre-ordered it at the cheap price you will get it at that. The sales ranks are also really silly too. Started in the 20 thousands then went way up then down to 30 thousand. Really silly. Deepdiscount si the cheapest so far. I'll add more retailers as soon as I find them.
These DVDs aren't listed in dvdaficionado.com yet, so I put a request into them to list the DVDs. The UPCs are critical for them to list something, so thanks MrTorso!
Thanks MrTorso. I just pre-ordered mine too.
I see you posted this in the MST3K forum (http://forrestcrow.proboards47.com/index.cgi) too ;)
I also e-mailed the info to the Satellite News. These discs will probably be the most MST3K like since they are going to be public domain epics like Wild Women of Wongo!
As the release date gets closer, try looking for them at www.dvdpricesearch.com (http://www.dvdpricesearch.com). They compare prices for a bunch of online retailers.
Listings are now up at dvdaficionado. (http://www.dvdaficionado.com/dvds.html?cat=0&tiq=film+crew&rg=1)
I tried e-mailing Shout! to see if I can score some artwork but I have had no response yet.

Are you going to make custom covers for these?

With the release date so far off, they're probably still working on the cover art.

Probably. I was hoping since they have been solicited to retailers that maybe there were some ad slicks floating around with any kinf of official art.

Probably not but I am going to do some custom art for the Rifftrax Classics releases.
DO the BUMP!!
I don't know why I waited, but I finally pre-ordered these yesterday.
I updated the first post to reflect the status change at CD Universe and to add the Killers from Space art.
OH MY GOD!, what the hell is that! I so wish I voted for Killers from space instead, oh well only a months wait.
It's shame they used the same pic for the crew but whatever, if we get a second set of releases they'll probably change it to represent the a new set.
The pre-order is back in place for Hollywood After Dark at Cd Universe. What probably happened with that one is Shout! Factory's non music DVDs have a new distributor. CD Universe probably had to list the first one as unavailable until they had new skus for the new distributor.
The releases just got some coverage from chud.com and they included a little Rifftrax shoutout as well...

There is also a promo trailer for the film Crew too.

P.S. Shout! Factory please don't sue me
I don't think they'd sue you...

This day and age you never know. I just wish they had something up at the Shout! Factory site. All you can find is a press release with no images, no trailer, nothing. The link I originally posted was from the CHUD.com info article on the releases.
Also Deepdiscount and CD Universe got cheaper!
Just watched the trailer, some great stuff!
Already pre-ordering the DVD's!!
I hope these become a hit!!
...
Do pre-order numbers count for anything when the order is placed at, say Amazon or DeepDiscount... rather than directly with Shout!?
Just curious.

I would think so. They should place their stock orders based on the number of pre-orders they get.
Some new info: Shout Factory dropped the price of the pre-order from 19.95 to 16.99 and you get a "Collectible Film Crew Patch"!!
I updated the first post to reflect this.
...
Sweet!... Now that was the kind of incentive that i've been waiting for before placing my pre-order. And now the order has been placed, so Bob Honcho if you're out there... make sure i get my sweet new Film Crew patch when these babies start shipping out!
-Rude
That trailer video was excellent... I will be placing a pre-order shortly. Altho I think they gotta work on the dvd cover art that was posted a few pages back... It looks like the guys work for NASA and they just watched the Challenger explode... it's not pretty.

Well they are having to watch Rue McLahanahanahan (sp?) strip so.........
Hmmm... so THAT is what Killers From Space is about... It all makes sense now....
New clip up at Shout Factory for Hollywood After Dark!

Windoze media file only though.
Sweet.....
You threw up on You Tube? eeww!
Killers is now listed at cduniverse.

Cool! I updated the first post to reflect that!
Thanks!
dvdpricesearch lists a 4-disc set with no release date. I assume this would be all four of the FC movies that have been announced. Do we know the release dates for the latter two or is it still a vague "later this year"?
"Seems they all agreed to conduct the hold-up in mime... "
Good stuff. There is something refreshing in hearing the guys riff on an old B&W. Can't wait for these.

That listing is either Rhino's failed attempt at releasing these or it is something completely different. Either way that 4 disc set is from Rhino who are NOT releasing the Film Crew DVDs. The other releases are supposed to be Wild Women of Wongo on 9/11 and Giant of Marathon on 10/9.
Updated the first post with Wild Women of Wongo pre-order info! Also Amazon dropped the price of the Film Crew dvds to $14.99 if you are into Amazon!
Went with DeepDiscount.
So has this shipped yet?

One person reported that Hollywood After Dark has shipped from CD universe I believe. Mine hasn't shipped from Deepdiscount.
Anybody know about The Film Crew's 4th flic: "Giant of Marathon" release date (October)??
Also; Has anyone been able to place a 'pre order' for it yet, and if so, where??
I just updated the first post today with the current info I could find. No links for Giant of Marathon yet and mst3k.com is reporting that the street date is October 9th.
Excellent!
Keep us informed as to Who and When the 1st pre-orders can be made for Giant of Marathon!
Thanks again for the help!
