COMPETITION WINNER AND RULES UPDATE

Monday 17th October 2016

Congratulations to Darren Douglas from Liverpool who has won a copy of The A-Team: The Complete Series on Blu-ray courtesy of Fabulous Films.

Unfortunately, this competition has lead us to change our rules for all future giveaways. From now on, we will accept only one entry per household due to people entering multiple times with different first names (and we don't mean 4 or 5) in what we deem an unfair attempt at increasing their chances. Distributors provide these prizes at a reasonable cost to themselves (this prize was worth £150), and it is unfair to both them, and other users who enter our competitions, to allow such tactics for the sake of a Blu-ray. Thanks to all our users, and all entrants. We will have plenty more competitions in the immediate future!

WIN - THE A-TEAM: THE COMPLETE SERIES ON BLU-RAY (UK ONLY)

Sunday 9th October 2016

To celebrate the Blu-ray release of The A-Team: The Complete Series, Fabulous Films have kindly provided us with a copy to give away.

Sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit, these four commandos escaped from a maximum-security stockade and now survive in the Los Angeles underground as soldiers of fortune. Join B.A, Hannibal, Murdock and Face in all 97 episodes from all 5 seasons of this groundbreaking show, now fully restored and in hi-definition… in this action-packed 22-disc Blu-ray set!

To be in with a chance of winning, just send your name, address and e-mail address to admin@dvdcompare.net with the subject heading FABULOUS and your full name and postal address (no PO Boxes) BY 16 OCTOBER 2016.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS: The competition is only open to UK readers of DVDCompare (DVDCompare.net staff and family are not eligible to enter). Only one entry will be accepted per person. If you enter multiple times, none of your entries will count and will be deleted. Your prize will be shipped direct. The competition will close on the date stated above.

REWIND AWARDS - BEST R.O.W DISTRIBUTOR AND BEST MAJOR STUDIO

Tuesday 12th January 2016

Today we reveal two winners from our Rewind Awards survey we held at the end of December. First up, we are pleased to announce that the best distributor for the "rest of world" (non-North American/UK) went to Camera Obscura, who have continually impressed our users with their releases of cult cinema. Some honourable mentions go to Anolis (Germany), Carlotta Films (France), and NSM Records (Austria).

When it comes to announcing the best major studio, there was only one company in the running. Congratulations to Warner whose annoying non-licensing ways annoy even the most forgiving movie fan, yet their Archive range and catalogue releases almost make us forgive them!

97000 RELEASES COMPARED

Sunday 10th January 2016

REWIND AWARDS - BEST NORTH AMERICAN DISTRIBUTOR

Sunday 10th January 2016

It is day 2 of our results unveiling, and today we reveal who you guys, our users, voted as the best distributor in North America. Like the UK category, there were quite a few labels mentioned, but one studio managed to just pip the others to the post.

Winner - The winner of this category for 2015 was Shout! Factory who continued their growing success with plenty of new titles in their Scream Factory range to keep the horror fiends happy, as well as various catalogue titles.

Honourable Mentions - The first honourable mention goes to Criterion who continue to upgrade some of their previously released titles to Blu-ray, whilst adding plenty of new titles. The home media market wouldn't be the same without these guys, especially when it comes to important films from throughout the history of cinema. Vinegar Syndrome, most famous for treating vintage erotica to some truly great transfers are next in line. When it comes to this genre, no other studio in the world, let alone North America, comes close. Last, but by no means least, Kino Lorber have kept many people extremely happy with their huge slate of forgotten yet much loved catalogue titles from MGM's archives. Long may it continue!

Tomorrow, we will review who you voted as best of the major studios. It wasn't even a contest.

REWIND AWARDS - BEST UK DISTRIBUTOR

Saturday 9th January 2016

We have totted up the votes, and it is time to make some daily announcements as we announce the winners and runners up of who you voted for best releases, distributors, and e-tailers. Today we announce the best UK distributor, as voted for by YOU - the Rewind users!

Winner - We are proud to announce that the overwhelming winner in this category, was Arrow Films who had a very eventful 2015 with big releases in both their Video and Academy ranges. From Hellraiser, to the Yoshida box set, 3 Women to My Darling Clementine, Arrow are a worthy winner in what is becoming a very difficult category to choose from! Congrats!

Honourable Mentions - As the UK distribution market is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with, and is full of top quality independent distributors, it should come as no surprise there are a few that got enough votes for an honourable mention. 88 Films have continued their success and released plenty of cult Italian films, slashers, and Full Moon features to keep their fans very happy. Eureka sub-label Masters of Cinema have long been a fan favourite for their efforts in bringing important films to home media, and 2015 was yet another great year for them. New kids on the block Signal One Entertainment hit the scene with a big impact in 2015, with solid transfers and great extras. What will 2016 hold for them?

Thanks all for your votes, and tomorrow we will announce the best North American distributors as voted by you.
