Every obscure movie on the release date? Perhaps not. Most popular movies on the release date, yes. Not sure how obscure is obscure, but I found 28,369 titles on DVD and 380 titles on Blu-ray. Many of those exist in multiple copies. As a disclaimer these numbers also include TV shows. Plus some older movies are only in VHS. I didn't look for those.
Admittedly one of my favorite movies is a foreign film from Canada. That -- unfortunately, the library does not have. The DVD was never released for sale in the US.
Patrons who are into obscurely obscure movies get them through interlibrary loan.
