I, obviously, cannot include EVERY title released in a given week in the RoundUp. The titles included are those that I am interested in…as well as those which I consider will be of interest to a majority of consumers (and sometimes I’ll miss one!). I don’t get paid for this, and I don’t have the time to list every DVD. So, please don’t complain! If there is a title not included in the RoundUp that you want to see, PLEASE just look it up yourself, and be nice enough to post and share the results with everyone!

Hey Rounduppers!

I gotta say I like the looks of the new formatting for the RoundUp. Let me know what you guys think.

One thing I'll be bringing up to the owners is that it's impossible to tell the difference between text with links and text without links.

For the record, Matt Hough has done a review of MI-5 and RAH has a thread on A Mighty Wind. Click those titles in the Blu-ray grid to read those.

And, of course, all the Amazon prices are clickable links which hep support the HTF. Thanks in advance for using those links.

And, as always, thanks in advance for your likes of the OP. They are always noted and appreciated.

Thanks for your work, Mike. I'll probably get Spectre at some point because I have all of the other Daniel Craig Bond films, but I didn't love it enough to rush out and make it an ASAP purchase, so I'm fine waiting for a price drop on that (even though the steelbook looks cool.) That being said, nothing for me this week.

Thanks, Mike! Just FYI: The first photo (Weekly RoundUp logo?) and the DVD/Blu-Ray logo images are broken links for me. When I click "View Image", I get the following error: "You do not have permission to view media within this album."

Same for me. This one will have to wait until it drops below $10.

I am slated to review SPECTRE as well as three of the Twilight Time releases (argh! I'm not finished reviewing the January releases yet!), but none are at my fingertips yet.

Thanks for the prices, Mike! The RoundUp looks nice!

Thanks Mike!

On Safari (which I've had to switch to since the app went away post conversion) the prices are cut off in either portrait or landscape mode. Any suggestions from fellow HTF members? I'm reading via iPhone.

Adam:

Thanks! Can you see them now? I never would have known had you not said something. I think I changed the permissions of the album where they are stored so you should be able to see them now.

Adam has already noted that, privately, with me Steve. It is on our "to do" list to figure out how to fix that.

Well, it's actually on Adam's "to do" list because I'd have no idea. :D It's his jobs to fix things, it's my job to just stand around and look pretty. :laugh:

I'm sure it's not a major concern but for those of us running ABP on Chrome those 'article' pages (and the HTF front page) are a formatting disaster.

I sure prefer having the WRU in the thread tho not as a separate article, just like my opinion man!

Also, is it possible to have UHDs in their own chart for those of us early adopters?

#1 What's ABP? Not that it matters to me...but you might want to let Adam know about that. I let him know (with visual proof) that the homepage wasn't displaying right for me and he and Dave had it fixed up pronto.

#2 I think the article thing is here to stay.

#3 I was thinking of that as I realized that title was coming up this week...although I've since been told--via PM--that it has been pushed back to March 1st. I remember going through this when HD-DVD and Blu-rays first came out, too. What seems so normal now made me really configure things differently back then! :biggrin:

Thanks for the RoundUp, Mike. I still strongly dislike having to click on a link to read it especially since it takes me away from the thread.

It's the theme you are using most likely. If you swap to the regular one, it'll look fine.

Do what I always do, David. Right-click on the link and open in a new tab.

Unless, of course, you are reading it on your phone/tablet...

Yup. I noted that up above in post #12.

I've just figured out how to edit a RoundUp in this new format. So, I've removed the Twilight Time pre-orders from the specials and Blu grid...as well as Life of Pi (4k UHD).
