How to email Warner Brothers to request a 'subUrbia' DVD release


I'd post URLs, but the site seems to change so much that I'm not sure they'd remain active. And they'd see that all the pageclicks were coming from this thread, and might not take it as seriously SO:

1. Go to the Warner Bros website at http://www.warnerbros.com

2. Find the "Help" section (if you're on any of the subsites, i.e. "Movies", "DVD", "Television", it should be in an orange bar at the bottom of the screen, next to "Site Map" and "Jobs" and whatnot)

3. Click "Other FAQs" on the left

4. At the bottom of the page, under "I have read through all the FAQs and I still have a question. What do I do?" there is a link that will take you to the page to Customer Service.

5. Fill in all the fields (Under "This is regarding: ", I'm assuming you select "DVD / Video [Title Requests]")

Let them know that you want to see subUrbia released, and tell them why! As it has been stated before, they don't liscence their movies out to companies like Criterion, so it would likely be futile to make such a request. But convince them that there is a market to profitably release this film on DVD, as they're not going to unless they see that people truly want it. Many, many DVD releases have come as a result of fans letting companies know they're interested (Upright Citizen's Brigade Season 1, and Empire Records: Remix Special Fan Edition, to name a few off the top of my head).

So contact them, tell your friends to contact them, etc. Let's get this done!

Anybody do this?

Yes, I just e-mailed Warner Brothers & requested SubUrbia be released on DVD.

I just did it too.

I've sent them at least five emails regarding "SubUrbia".

I just did it. Hopefully this will actually amount to something.

reply

I just e-mailed them. There is actually an option that reads "DVD/Video (title requests)". I've never actually seen this film, but I've recently become a Nicky Katt fan and would love to get my hands on a copy of this (and I don't want some crappy ex-rental copy from ebay!).

reply

Just sent them another request.

Castlerock owns the rights.

"Hi John,


There are plans to release SubUrbia on DVD, but I'm not yet sure when it will be out. Castle Rock and/or Sony would be the ones doing it.


Thank you, "

Hey Folks, I wrote to Detour, and this was the response.

I think it will be released in the next year, if not sooner! Expect an annoucment in the next few months.

reply

Their website, www.castle-rock.com, points to the Warner Bros. homepage, so I guess they're a subsidary of WB.

I hope your right..This has been a movie I've been waiting for to get a dvd release.

reply

I sent in an email to them before reading on throughout the topic and seeing they had already responded to someone. Oh well.

reply

Good, lets drive them nuts!

reply

I just sent about 8 emails to them demanding the release.

Keep sending them! We need this on DVD!!!

reply

I don't have much of a life. I will perosnally guarantee that i will send them a new email everyday. It won't do any use but I'll feel better anyway.

reply

I sent one awhile ago but gave up and ordered a VHS copy just to check it out. It sounds good and I can't wait to watch it.

reply

done!
