Falling for Grace DVD Release from CD Universe - Update.

Well, after several emails to and from CD Universe, the situation appears to be this.

The DVD was released on 1/5. Stocks were exhausted immediately probably because of high demand, which is fantastic news for Gale and Fay! Not such good news for those of us who missed out on the first shipment!

However, CD Universe tell me that the re-release from the vendors is due on 1/12 and we will be informed by email as soon as this new release is shipped.

I was so annoyed when I received the first email that I immediately re-ordered the DVD from Tower. On further contemplation this was particularly pointless as the release date from Tower is the same - 1/12. So I've now cancelled the Tower one and am sitting tight with CD Universe. I figure if I missed out on the first release from them, I must surely be somewhere near the top of the second release!

Anyway, after all the time I've been waiting to see this film, another week or so isn't going to kill me... drive me up the effin' wall, yes, but definitely not kill me! :)

FFG DVD not being released in February now!

You get a beautiful picture today because the news is crap, not at all unexpected, but still crap.

The date for the Falling for Grace DVD release has been put back a month from February 9th to March 9th. This isn't on either Fay's or the FFG Twitter pages and neither Facebook page has this news. No, the only reason we know this is because she emailed a friend and that friend very kindly posted the news on livejournal. This is what she wrote:

The distributor just pushed the DVD release date back to March 9th. It's a moving target, I guess. We'll need a lot of help spreading the word!

What's this all about, "we'll need a lot of help spreading the word!"? Put it on Facebook, Fay, tweet about it. You'll be surprised how fast the news spreads!

Anyway, this isn't at all unexpected, especially when, as I posted here, only a couple of days ago Fay was saying that she was still "gathering all the materials to go to press."

If we all didn't have our tongues hanging out waiting for any new and exciting news about Fertile Ground, I expect this setback would have hit harder. As it is, it just feels like a minor inconvenience! Oh well, I suppose I'll get to see this film eventually... that's if I live long enough of course! :)

FFG DVD to be released February 9, 2010...

She'll be the death of us all! Actually, I'd probably faint at this point if she started putting all the updates in the same place! :)

Fay has put this in the bio on the Falling for Grace twitter page:

Falling for Grace DVD - out on 2/9/10 in time for Valentine's Day!

So, remember if you're looking for this, it ISN'T a tweet, it's just an updated bio.

*rolls eyes*

ETA: I've been thinking about this all afternoon, wondering why she didn't just make an announcement on Facebook or, at the very least, tweet about it. I wonder if this is so that the date can actually be changed quite surreptitiously! I could be totally wrong and it's just that she hates us Gale fans and loves messing with our heads! Of course, it may all mean nothing and I'm just totally paranoid... ;)
