What a week, everyone! First off, a huge thank you for all the incredible birthday wishes on the recent film haul video, it made the day truly special. 🎂

We’ve been diving deep lately, from the high-octane 4K of John Woo’s A Better Tomorrow to the visual intensity of Takashi Miike’s Visitor Q. It seems like the 'Boutique Label' calendar is more packed than ever, but I’ve noticed a lot of you mentioning 'label fatigue' or being more selective with pre-orders due to rising costs.

I’m curious: If you had to pick just ONE label to stick with for the rest of 2026, who are you backing? Are you still riding with the classics like Indicator and Eureka, or have newer players like Radiance completely stolen your attention?
