Let’s have a look at how February 2021 worked out for us in Spaghetti Western land.
As previously posted, we now use the 
Newsletter category of our forums instead of our old Email-List. We have set up this forum category in a way that everyone is watching that it for new topics by default (you can opt out of this using the “bell” icon 
at the top right corner of that category). So you should have been notified of this very announcement with the little notification dot in the forums itself - or via email 
, if you weren’t currently logged on.
NEW STUFF IN AND AROUND THE SWDB IN 
FEBRUARY 2021:
-
We are continuing to add pictures to the SWDb and also more and more soundtrack release info. We rely on your help here, please report errors, missing information, releases that aren’t listed, posters that we aren’t showing and much more, just message us, or post them, we take care of the rest!
Our Lost+Found category keeps being very popular, and we have a very good success rate. If you are ever looking for a movie, this is your place!

Arrow’s 4K UHD BluRay release of Django as well as Kino’s of GBU are available for pre-order.
Wild East released Arizona Colt on BluRay
Kino Lorber released Man of the East and The Hills Run Red on BluRay. -
@Tom_B and @spaghetti_westerns are churning out the greatest podcast ever made, every Friday 12pm PST.
Click here to check out the show archive and show notes which we keep updating every now and then to give you some way of researching names and titles mentioned in episodes past. -
Unfortunately, @Tom_B had to write at least 11 new obituaries of recently passed legends, who now reside on sad hill…
Check out “Cemetery with crosses” -
Now that our release calendar is filling up and first titles are about to appear, we will do some work very soon to make it look a bit more like the GCDb’s. In the meantime, please keep reporting new and upcoming releases, so we can add those to the SWDb. We also welcome tips about soundtrack and book releases!

in other news, there is a Django TV series in the works.
We have tried filling some gaps in our books listings, please continue to let us know which spaghetti western books aren’t in the SWDb, please let us know about these books, send us reviews, corrections and so on. -
New reviews and articles that were published in February are:
The Great Silence
On a sidenote, don’t forget to check out our sister websites, The Grindhouse Cinema Database for example also has a magnificent BluRay release calendar if you are into exploitation films. The Quentin Tarantino Archives (our original mothership) will among other things provide you with news of Tarantino’s first novel, and there is an abundance of reviews on all kinds of movies to discover at Furious Cinema. Its German-language sister baby Nischenkino is an avalanche of wild movie reviews on a daily basis!
Many thanks to all and everyone who contributed this month, in the SWDb proper, here in the forums, everyone who has emailed us, shared our posts on social media, listened in on the podcast or donated a few bucks our way. See you next month with a roundup of updates.
