Weekly Movie Release Time

I'm a relatively new Kscape owner, and I was wondering what time the weekly releases/sales are updated in the movie store? I know Apple typically does midnight PT / 3 AM ET, but it appears kscape is much later in the day.

Is there a set schedule/time?
 
They're added at around the same time on K, but they're not necessarily added to the home page of the store and the New Releases list until later in the day. They're there, but you have to search to find them, if you're looking for something specific.
 
I pre-ordered John Wick and noticed it downloaded at 2 AM MT

They often download in advance, but you can't play it until the actual release time. Mine downloaded yesterday mid-morning, but wasn't available for viewing until whatever time they flipped the switch.
 
For Central time most of mine have gone live around 2am-3am. Granted I don't always check ASAP, but that's been the time for the big releases I was ready to watch.

Random schedule. You never know what they will release and when in advance except a few pre-order here and there.

I can tell you when you shouldn’t expect any additions to the store which is Sundays. Mondays are rare too but not unseen before.

Typically Tuesdays are when new special pricing(on sale) titles are announced. Late Tuesdays to Thursdays new titles are added to the store. Some weeks one or two additional new titles show up on Fridays and Saturdays too. On average, 4 to 8 new titles are added each week. Typically fewer other titles are added with big releases like John Wick 4.

There is a significant bias towards super hero, big blockbusters and romantic comedy/chick flicks. Horror films are somewhat represented but hard sci-fi and catalog tv series are under represented.
