Are any stores selling the Star Wars DVDs at midnight?

Same here! Preferably downtown, Vancouver.

Which I'm doubting, cause all stores like that close before 10pm

Finally bought a new PSP, but then pushed the demon onto someone else. Jesus.
:lol

We've waited how long for the DVDs?





Is it really that urgent, or are you just a...

Nah, it's not a big deal. It would just be nice to pick them up tonight, watch some of it tonight (well tuesday morning) so I don't have to watch it all tuesday.

Well do 24 hour wal-marts put new stuff out right at midnight?

They do for stuff like this. I know they've had all 5 Lord of the Rings DVD releases out at midnight.

I wonder how much Wal-Mart is selling it for though.

nevermind: $41.88 at Walmart.com

Wal-Mart here usually price matches anything nearby. I've had them sell me movies for Best Buy's prices many times, especially at midnight when the geeks have already pushed the issue.

Even if you find a store that's selling them at midnight...would you actually go home and watch any of them or just smell George Lucas' fingerprints all over the collection? :)

I'm going to be going to pick these up with StrikerObi after work. Maybe I'll bring my camera to take some pictures if it looks like it might be big (aparently the Wal-Mart I called said they received over 50 phone calls in the past couple of hours asking about it).

God I hope you feel ashamed for mentioning such things again.

I'm getting mine tonight at Hastings. Hopefully I'll get my free lithograph too. ^_^

The best buy in Chicago on North Ave will have it at midnight. Supposedly all people will get a poster, and the first 50 will get some kind of free gift.

I'm glad Grandpa porked a Chinese Muslim
I ordered it from Amazon, but I picked the free shipping so I probably won't get mine until later this week :/
 
I heard they captured a rather large amount of George Lucas' flatulence, and were able to insert some into each box set, before they were shrink-wrapped air tight. That way, when you break open the seal, you can smell the wafting stench of doom before you put the discs in your DVD player. Also, it's simply another method in which Lucas derives sick pleasure, in a power position over Star Wars fans.
 
My mom came home with mine a little after 12 with the lithograph and all, nothing special, but it's nice to get something extra. I just finished watching ANH and am on my way to ESB, but decided to take a break to watch some extras.

Overall I'm VERY impressed so far, the little goofs in the audio that aren't very frequent, or even noticeable aren't a problem for me. Though the green lightsaber bloop in ANH is a little silly. But the quality of these films is unbelieveable, I've never seen anything like them. This is simply amazing.

Anyways, I got mine at Hastings for a rather expensive price, I don't know the exact price as my mom got it.
