If there were going to be a September release we would have heard an announcement by now. We are hearing announcements for October and November releases by other movie studios at the moment. Also DVD and Blu-rays are now released on the same date so that's why I posted this in this thread.
Theatrical-to-DVD windows for the first half of 2009 are more than two weeks longer than they were early last year, a phenomenon industry execs are attributing to this year’s late Easter and the unusually strong box-office business.
For all theatrical titles released on or announced for DVD since January, the average window is 144 days, according to Rentrak research. That compares to 125 days for the same frame last year and 133 days for full-year 2008.
Studios insist they haven’t significantly altered their DVD slotting methods in 2009. The companies still look for those dates that will make titles successful.
