Default We have a winner on fast DVD releases...


http://today.reuters.com/news/newsAr...LAMPOON-DC.XML

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - National Lampoon Inc. is challenging long-held
film release practices by releasing "National Lampoon's Blackball" in
theaters on Friday and on DVD four days later.

The only thing faster would be releasing the movie and DVD on the same
day.

It already is as fast as it could be because theatrical films are
generally released on a Friday (and special holidays) and DVDs are
virtually always put out on Tuesdays.

No, you can release on DVD before you release in the theatre

I'll have to remember that the next time Borders does a "build your own
box set".

Spaceballs
Blackball
Dodgeball

-------------------------------

Like the movie "Left Behind" already was.

I guess that invalidates National Lampoon's claim of the movie
"Blackball" being the fastest dvd release ever.
