- A scooper writes us to let us know that the “Zack and Miri Make a Porno” DVD and Bluray release is listed at February 10th in the internal Blockbuster computers, and that he’s never seen them get a release date wrong. So, pretty strong evidence that we’ll see the disc on that day, even though we have yet to see a final confirmation.
Meanwhile, check out a look at this DVD cover for “Porno” that was discovered on the Amazon.com servers. This likely means we’ll see a confirmed date and some real specs on the disc’s contents soon. The cover looks like a newly composed shot to feature the entire cast, and doesn’t match any of the previous poster artwork that we’ve seen. We like it, though.The only item giving us pause is the news that the Bluray release of “Clerks 2” has been bumped up a week to February 3rd:
The Weinstein Company has officially announced the Blu-ray release of Kevin Smith’s ‘Clerks II’, which is due to hit store shelves on February 3rd. Originally scheduled for a February 10th release, this two disc set will feature all the extras from the previous HD DVD release. No technical specs have been announced at this time.
Typically, studios like to release similar titles on the same day, so if you’re going to the store to pick up one, you’ll get both — So PERHAPS “Porno” will also bump up a week. We’ll let ya know as soon as we know.

I worked at Blockbuster as a Store Manager for 5 years. The dates in the computer were usually correct, but were wrong once in awhile. The release dates at Blockbuster were often times updated a few days prior to a changed release date. I wouldnt put much weight into the system being correct.
