Weekend Discussion Thread: Questions for Jordan Fields of Shout! Factory

This weekend’s thread comes in the form of a request for your help. Jordan Fields, director of acquisitions at Shout! Factory, has agreed to be the subject of our next “20 questions” feature. Jordan has a long history with MST3K:

A former screenwriter, Fields started at Shout! Factory in 2004 in the production department. In 2005, he moved to Rhino Entertainment as acquisitions manager, where his responsibilities included product managing their MST3K releases. In 2007, he went back to Shout! Factory as director of acquisitions and worked to bring MST3K distribution rights there. He works closely with DVD producer Brian Ward on their MST3K releases and helped engineer the MST3K reunion at last year’s San Diego Comic-Con.

Jordan has been at the heart of the decision-making process for MST3K on home video for quite some time, and looks to be at the heart of it for quite some time to come. So, what do you think we should ask him?

    Personally I’d ask Jordan what he’s doing to prevent a “Volume 10.1” fiasco from happening under Shout!Factor’s watch over the franchise. A lot of people got burned when the original Volume 10 got yanked off the shelves due to that copyright problem with it’s Godzilla episode.

    ” ” As long as Shout does their homework, there shouldn’t be another VOL 10 type incident. Rhino totally didn’t use common sense with that (but, we did manage to get a pristine quality copy of #212 even if for just a limited time AND a mini-MST reunion later on… so I’d say it was worth it!).
