Will America get to see the comic?


As an American fan, I'm a bit upset about these Arrow blu-ray releases. I'd love to have the films on blu ray, but I can live with my DVDs. ...But I NEED to at least read the comic sequel! Anyone have any idea if Americans will have a chance to see it? I've read that Arrow's done comics with their DVD releases before. Did any of those reach the Unites States in any way? At the very least, I'm hoping one of you lucky UK fans will scan it and throw it online for us.

No idea pal. But it makes a difference from the US getting the best of everything all the time and getting it first as well in some cases. It's about time we in the UK get somethings others don't get or we get it first anyway. Sorry I can't answer your question for you though. But it will probably end up online somewhere at some point. Just keep an eye out for it.

Don't worry about it. Miramax is helping to take care of that.

They're going out of their way to destroy foreign films for American audiences. I've been kind of obsessed with it lately; after seeing what they did to 'Project A'.

I know the mentality well my friend. It's that train of thought that makes most people hate American movie companies when they buy the rights to foreign movies or alter them in any way to suit the US market.

Exactly!

Things wouldn't be so bad when it comes to the American movie companies if they would leave things be a lot of the time. I mean look at Attack The Block. Universal I think it was. They wanted to dub it with a brand new audio track as they said the US audience wouldn't be able to understand a lot of the dialogue in the movie with it being based in London. The director asked the preview audience in attendance what they thought (since it was an all American audience). And they said they didn't find it hard to follow the movie at all. Things were fine as it was and not how Universal wanted it to be. Ignorance runs rampant in Mainstream Hollywood it seems. And it's for this reason mainly that I am against a remake of Demons.

Uh-oh! Remaking 'Demons' now are they? This actually sounds like something I used to know and then forgot; it's hard to keep up with this kind of news when there's another remake being announced every hour or so, and with a majority of today's remakes, well, sucking, I too am against the idea.

Did any Americans get to see the Arrow Video "Day of the Dead" comic? If so, chances are you'll get to see the "Demons" comics too.

reply

Well, after over three years, I still couldn't find any torrents or American releases of the comic... so I ordered the Arrow DVD's from the UK just for the comics and sold the discs in a garage sale.

Honestly, I kind of expected to regret it, but I didn't. I really liked it!
