    Something like the Blu Ray of Kevin Smith’s 1999 movie “Dogma” could cost you $150 to buy

    …but why?

        Yep it sucks because I think it’s Kevin Smith’s best work but I do respect him for refusing to buy the rights back or arrange for a deal for streaming rights because it would be giving Bob and Harvey Weinstein money.

        For anyone unaware, the film had a complicated release because there was a lot of controversy surrounding Dogma, particularly from the Catholic League, who were pissy about being made fun of. So Disney, who owned Miramax at the time, allowed Bob and Harvey Weinstein to buy the movie themselves. So they personally own Dogma.

              Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=7ZVEe

              Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

              I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.

      Because its out of print. There are no new copies to replace ones sold. So the remaining copies in inventory rise in value.
