James Bond Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Picked up and watched The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo the other day. Wal-Mart had it on sale for $15. On the stand, only the DVD was advertised for $15, with the Blu-ray/DVD combo at $25. I wanted the Blu-ray so it was a nice surprise when that scanned in for $15. In other words, I got the two disc Blu-ray plus the DVD for what some poor consumer paid for just the DVD with no bonus features. I enjoyed watching the movie again, and the extras I've watched so far are really well done. Great interviews, and great behind-the-scenes stuff.

SONOFABITCH Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 I just ordered the Godfather collection on Blu-ray. I have never seen Godfather 2 or 3. GF2 seems to be known as the best sequel of all-time. My favorite movie of all-time comes out tomorrow on Blu-ray - the original Jaws.

It's not the first time that's happened to me there. Definitely not complaining! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 I've been converted. I watched Fight Club on Blu on my PS3 last night and I was blown away.Watching that movie tonight for the first time ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zint Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 Picked up JAWS - the Digibook version.It came with a ten dollar coupon that you can put towards another Universal 100th Anniversary blu.I'll use it towards All Quiet On The Western Front.It's a definite "want" for the collection, plus it's one of the pricier Universal blus.

Zint Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 Picked up the blu of The Kids Are Alright for ten bucks.Worthy at that price...hang on to your special edition dvd's if you upgrade, you'll want to keep disc two.The perks of the blu were the audio and the proper aspect ratio of A Quick One from the Rock and Roll Circus (including the lightbulb framing).The Woodstock segments seemed to really stand out moreso than dvd, as did the studio segments filmed for the fan club members.Some of the early b+w clips really didn't benefit from a blu upgrade.Glad I have it in the blu collection, even if it was found in a clearance bargain bin.

Axl_morris Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Hey high definition geeks I'm selling some, thought some of you from the UK might want to check them out. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/150890888042?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649#ht_506wt_1151 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stiff Competition Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 (edited) Picked up the avengers metal case at Best Buy last night for 2.50 after using 5$RZ. I'll probably buy the movie at Target though since they have an exclusive bonus disc.The Watchmen Ultimate Cut is getting re-released after I finally tracked down an original copy, so I have to figure out what to do there. I might sell my current copy. I already have the book that is coming with it, but I love the packaging.It's lenticular and switches from the movie characters to the comic characters.They finally are releasing a US Elm street release as well, but I'm super disappointed with the packaging. I'll still buy it but I might make my own custom case for it. Edited September 1, 2012 by Stiff Competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 That Watchmen set is amazing. Pre-ordered it on WBshop.com for like $35 shipped. Buying the Snow White and the Huntsman steelbook on Tuesday. It'll be a blind buy, but I can't pass it up.Also, pretty sure I'm getting sucked into double-dipping on Cabin In The Woods. I ordered the steelbook from HMV, and I cannot pass up a slipcover this awsesome:Dammit.After that is The Avengers, which I pre-ordered from Best Buy to get the sweet ass collector's case, but I think I might buy it at Target for the better slipcover picture and bonus content. The Game Criterion release comes out the same day, and that's the only Fincher film I've never seen, so I'll probably blind buy that.

Zint Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 The Game will go on sale cheaper if you can wait a bit.Amazon and Barnes and Noble usually do a Criterion sale for Black Friday.You'll probably be able to get it for 20 bucks.

Black Sabbath Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I think Best Buy is going to have it for $20 on release day. They had The Royal Tenenbaums for $20 on release day, so there's a good chance this one will be. Unless it's a 3D release, or a steelbook, I won't pay any higher for a movie.

Black Sabbath Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I also pre-ordered Cinderella to get the really nice case. Depending on Release Week price, I may pick it up.I'm definitely holding off on the Indy set though. No way am I paying nearly $70 for that. I still haven't bought Star Wars.I am debating buying the 3D Limited Edition of The Titanic, though. http://images4.static-bluray.com/movies/covers/50252_slipback.jpgThen into October, aside from Cinderella, I'm thinking about buying Dark Shadows (watching it now to see if I like it), and I have the Coffin edition of the Universal Monsters collection pre-ordered on Amazon UK. And, the Nightmare on Elm Street set comes out which I can't wait for! Too many releases!I think Best Buy is going to have it for $20 on release day. They had The Royal Tenenbaums for $20 on release day, so there's a good chance this one will be. Unless it's a 3D release, or a steelbook, I won't pay any higher for a movie.The blu-ray??wow! Yep! Nabbed that Day 1, and technically got it for free because I had a $20 gift card from work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
