In Reply to: Studio Release Date Rules posted by question boy on May 30, 2001 at 13:50:19:
They cheated. They got their's and made a decision to start renting early instead of keeping them in the back room for another week. Blockbuster/Hollywood figure they are too closely scrutinized to take a chance on renting early so they don't.Stop and think about it,you don't really think the big stores didn't have them do you ? The stdio truck does not run around like Santa delivering on release date eve.

Thanks for your response. I kinda suspected that but I was hoping there was an answer that allowed them to do this LEGALLY.Well, this same video store put out (for rental) the new "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" DVD 3 days ago even though the official release date is June 5. I suspect that they release videos as they receive them from their supplier, without regard to the official release dates.
