Here is some blockbuster news being reported by Variety (pun intended).
The Weinstein Company (TWC) has entered into an unusual deal with Blockbuster that will make the video retailer the exclusive rental outlet for all Weinstein Company releases.
As part of the four-year pact, TWC will not make available any titles through competing rental outlets -- including Blockbuster rivals netflix and Movie Gallery -- beginning in January.
Since TWC has no release from this fall that I care about, so far so good. Now I only have to pray that TWC continues making movies I don't want to see.
