Dirty Dancing (1987) Barton Fink (1991) Blade (1998) Please share your memories of seeing or working with any of these films.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 08-22-2011 12:14 AM                        Dirty Dancing was my first experience with seeing what a quick video release would do to a movie's theatrical sales. The show came out on video amazingly fast for that time, and we wound up playing it a week or two after the video debut. It went right in the toilet for us. If we'd played it a month sooner it would have done great business.  |  IP: Logged
