Here they are: Beyond Video's Top-Renting New Releases and Restorations of 2023! As always, an intriguing list with plenty of surprises, and one that gives a very different sense of the year in film than box-office reports.

[Beyond Video @BeyondVideo_]

Yep, we’re closed! Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday, it was a wild and wooly one.

Behold Beyond Video’s Top SIX SEVEN rentals of 2025!

It’s sublime how many gems thrive when people can choose from everything under one roof rather than the morass of corporate streaming services! For instance, peep the rankings for SOUNDTRACK TO A COUP D’ETAT and RED ROOMS!🤓📀

[Beyond Video @BeyondVideo_]

Celebrate safe, sleep in, and come see us 3-9pm on 1/1/26! 🥳

re: WB-Netflix

physical media is more important than ever and it should be accessible to people everywhere. Baltimore has had a nonprofit video store for year’s now, and one of its co-founders @ericallenhatch wrote about how it can be replicated https://t.co/o2YY0YV8yJ

I've just launched the New/Next Film Festival Home-viewing archive, a *public* document listing all films I've screened in the history of the festival with links directly to where you can view them from home via streaming, VOD, youtube, vimeo, and even physical media. Link below.

dat’s right.

and that makes us officially the largest-ever video-rental collection in Baltimore! (the late, great Video Americain reported owning in the 30,000s as it closed).

Thanks to everyone who’s helped us get here from our humble beginnings with ~8900 titles in 2018!

this is a tweet for like 7 people but I sure wish Sony Pictures Classics would stop issuing major titles like Almodovar's Room Next Door not only as DVD-only physical media releases (no US blu or 4K announced) BUT also they're DVD-Rs AND expensive AND often listed as HD DVDs (!?)

[Mr. Chau @Srirachachau]

More DVDs should be like this. The No Country for Old Men DVD should still have Anton Chigurgh's giant face in the background but in the foreground you just see the Coens smiling

Hong Hive: what title(s) are we missing on which format(s) that you are certain have been released on US physical media?

I just rented #TheWeddingBanquet from @BeyondVideo_ a couple weeks ago (and loved it) with no idea there was a remake with Bowen Yang coming out this spring.
