I miss the DVD day... so what's everybody picking up today?

For me it's:

B00005JNEI.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

B00029NKU6.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg


Deal note: I think Circuit City has Untouchables for $8.99! I thought I saw that in the Sunday paper even through their website says $12.99. Best Buy has it for $9.99 and that's confirmed on the Website, both are listed as in backorder... deepdiscountdvd.com however has it for $9.36.

Too many things to choose from this week, and I need to save money for November. But in addition to DarienA's stuff I'm looking at--

Finally bought a new PSP, but then pushed the demon onto someone else. Jesus.
I'm pretty behind. I still need In Living Color Season 2, Chris Rock: Neva Scared... There's a bunch. I need to pick up a 2nd copy of Man On Fire as well.

Oh, Shawshank special edition. I'm not content with the transfer of my current copy, another item on the ever growing list :(

"We don't die, we multiply! Bebe's Kids!" I'll never forget that line. For me it's Aladdin and Shawshank if I can find them in the $15-16 range.

If you aren't in a hurry I'd suggest eBay that's where I pick up most of the DVD's that I don't feel the need to pick up THAT day... I simply go through the list see which ones have low current prices, see where they are coming from(I only buy from US sellers), and confirm that it's a real region 1 release(try the description to get a feel), check feedback, etc. then put them in my watch list and follow them... if they get too high I search over again... it's a good way IMO to pick up ones I'm not pressed about at that price point I'm comfortable with $15-$16.

Oh good, so they re-did the video transfer for Shawshank. Good. I hate grainy DVDs. I noticed that about Fight Club just the other day.

What, nobody getting this?

Not me, because I've read a few reviews that criticize these because they aren't the extended versions that are available on standalone DVD.

Seriously? That really sucks seeing as the standalones are so bare bones.
 
I picked up Aladdin at Best Buy for $16, and it came with a free Abu plush. Hurray, I guess. Free is free.

Also, I looked at The Untouchables "special edition." It feels (weight) like it only has a single disc in it. What's so special about it?
 
Tanner '88 is genius, I'd love to see the new miniseries Altman and Trudeau are making, but I don't get Sundance Channel. I want Aladdin, but I'll leave it on my Xmas list.

Where did you order the Gundam SEED DVDs that shipped them early?! :(
 
I love action movies, but my god was Van Helsing BAD!

Even the incredibly hot Kate Beckinsdale couldn't save it. The first scene with Hyde was done great! But then it just turned to shit rather qucikly.


BTW, whats with the shitty cover art? Why not use the theatrical poster?

Yeah, it was a good DVD day. :D
 
Your last picture is a red X, but I'm a big fan of Spike Lee and Norton and it sounds like my kind of flick, so I'm sure I'll enjoy it. I'm watching it tonight after I finish Eternal Sunshine. :)

I just want to say that this movie gave me nightmares that I still have to this day...



Anyway, I really want to buy that Donnie Darko: Director's Cut... what's up with it anyway? Extended footage? Alternate ending?

I got Aladdin yesterday. No Shawshank since it was 20 -- will wait till Target has it for 15 some months down the line or go the eBay route. Also picked up the new Cake album for 10 bucks.

Troy officially rocks! I really liked it after seeing it in the theaters but now it's even better. I just finished watching the bonus material on disc 2 as well. I really liked the easter egg :D
