[OPLINLIST] Warner Home Video Retail vs. Rental Releases

[Gary S. Butler]

Warner Home Video will no longer distribute theatrical releases to
libraries or home video rental stores until 28 days after they release
the movies for sale at retailers, and the first 3 titles affected are
Crazy Stupid Love, Harry Potter 7 pt2, and The Hangover 2. Is there any
reason not to get the retail version from a nearby store or internet
retailer in order to have them on the shelf weeks earlier than the
rental version?

 

Here is the press release form our primary vendor Midwest Tape:
