News: New UK R2 DVD Label for Asian Films

This month's UK home entertainment industry magazine RRP carries both an article and advert for Third Window Films, who supplied a number of titles to the 2006 Firecracker Festival. It appears their titles are being distributed via Metrodome, and the initial line-up includes the UK premiere of 2001 Korean action-comedy Guns and Talks. I mention this to the wider international audience because (a) some of the licenses Third Window have picked up are out of print in other territories, and (b) the label owner mentions licensing extras to create decent editions, which may make these releases affordable options for those requiring region 2 formatting or discs with English subs & extras. Expect to see coverage here as the discs are released.
