Epix Movie Question

[gadgtfreek]

I notice Shutter Island and KickAss are mentioned on their site. Will Epix have exclusive rights to them, or will they sell them to another channel, like HBO, to show?

Yes, they will have the exclusive rights. It's a combo of Paramount/Lionsgate/MGM, and I remember reading somewhere that they took some of or all three deals from either Showtime or HBO to create the network.

Hmmm. I was afraid of that. Guess Ill have to keep an eye on what flicks they get and Redbox em.

Thanks.
