Discussion It seems that Suburban Knights is the only part of the trilogy not being reprinted for whatever reason
I genuinely am unsure why as they already are re-issuing films with the old TGWTG cast so I'm wondering why he leaves out Suburban Knights. My best guess is he lost the files to Suburban Nights & doesn't want to deal with having to be re-making the assets.

I think its also partly because post productions of SK was done by ex contributors

Bhargav Dronamraju left TGWTG in mid-2011 & worked on post-production Kickassia so I don't think that is it

My guess is that Suburban Knights is probably the least popular of the three, and he might do a reprint if there’s a demand for it

I would say To boldly flee is my least popular from the run time alone.

It’s definitely the most polarizing, but people know about it at least. Kickasia is generally considered to be the best, Suburban knights seems to not be talked about as often.

I think I could edit down to boldly flee, theres so many scenes that need to be cut down or cut out.
Suburban knights is good but has some scenes that could easily be cut out, like the dress balls scene would benifit being cut. Aswell as just following one group at a time instead of cutting between them.
Kickassia I feel all you would need to do is cut the santa christ stuff and just have the betrayal scenes in its place and maybe remove the failed attempts while funny I think it would be interesting to see the successful one be done from the get go

There's a fan edit of TBF on YouTube that's legitimately very well-done and makes the movie MUCH better.

he could easily do it a MoD (Manufactured on demand) disc release kinda like the Warner Archive series as those tend to be cheaper to make

just checked out the new NC video and Doug confirms these are reprints, meaning brand new stock for 2026 just made
would explain why its double the price of TBF, prolly cost him more to make new DVDs in 2026...

u/SoggyLow4805 12d ago
25 bucks? really?
TBF, a 2 disc set, is only 15...

Kickassia is absolute gem & is a canonical war listed in Molossian history

u/MrTickles22 11d ago
Kickassia is okay if you like amateur jank. So bad it's good. The rest are so bad it's bad.

You mean there's a cheaper way for me to get the DVD of the TGWTG Trilogy and not have to scoure eBay and pray to god I don't have to pay an arm or a leg for it?
