    Eight Is Enough Is Finally Happening

    Is there any point buying into this series now? The first season is down to $13.49, but at the season two pricing, I can't see Warner rushing to release any more, so it's likely I'll wind up with only the first season.

    Eastwood - Two Mules For Sister Sara and Escape From Alcatraz - blu ray??

    Warner's rehash box sets are also missing an opportunity to include a blu Bridges of Madison County. Beguiled and High Plains Drifter would be on my list too.

    Was the 5 disc set reissued (edited), or was it replaced by the BR/DVD/DC version?

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Game of Thrones -- in Blu-ray

    A little late to the party, but Showcase just began airing S1 so I got the PVR busy, but already have the S2 bluray in transit. Looking for the S1 bluray, I am completely confused as to which version is which and what comes with it. I understand the original 5 disc release had a George Bush head...

    Twilight Time announces Blu-ray releases March/April 2013

    No, it just shows that there is a limited demand for titles in this pricing tier. Had this come out at $15, they probably could have sold 3000 copies with no problem, but as the price increases the number of people willing to pay it diminishes, especially on lesser known titles.

    Star Trek TNG "The Best of Both Worlds" Blu Ray

    I don't see any reason this couldn't have been included in one of the season sets, other than a way to grab a little more cash out of the franchise. :rolleyes: If anything, it could have been included in the sets and be available standalone for those not willing to fork out for the sets.

    Blu-ray Review Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome Blu-ray Review

    Once this hits the bargain bin I'll have no problem buying it as I didn't mind the webisodes, but $25 for what should have been a pilot is way to much for what it is. It's too bad B&C didn't get off the ground as a series, as it showed promise. There needs to be more BSG, and working in the...

    Anyone else waiting for Warner to release WIND AND THE LION?

    This better not be released through the archives. TWATL has been released on mainstream home video in every incarnation, so it is not unreasonable to expect a mainstream Bluray release as well.

    NPD: Disc, Not Digital, Drives Home Entertainment Revenue

    From a practical perspective, I would much rather have a cloud based film library - the space savings, and convenience of a simple touch screen search and instant availability would be ideal. Not to mention never having your media fail (which I have experienced) or "improved" versions constantly...

    Twin Peaks Season 2?

    It would be interesting to see a new series set in Twin Peaks, but not necessarily a continuation other than references to the events of the past. I do hope FWWM finally gets released with the deleted scenes.

    Last Resort (ABC) - season 1 thread

    I also agree. The finale was a lot better than I expected, even with a fairly rushed ending.

    Last Resort (ABC) - season 1 thread

    There's a lot of unresolved storylines still in play, so to wrap it all in one episode seems like a stretch. We have a mutiny to deal with. The XO has to learn about his wife, but only after he's slept with the French chick. The fate of conspirators has to be revealed. The Chinese need to get...

    Last Resort (ABC) - season 1 thread

    Is anybody else still watching this? With only one more episode to wrap the series, it has been pretty good so far, and has sure gotten a lot more complicated over the last few episodes. Sure, there have been a lot of holes in the story telling, but no show is perfect. Lost was a great show...

    Blu-ray Review Agatha Christie's Poirot: Series 6 Blu-ray Review

    I am very happy with Acorn's handling of Poirot so far, so if they now have a majority stake in the Christie holdings, the only things preventing more quality releases will be available elements and existing distribution agreements. For Poirot, it looks like series 7 and 8 could be released...

    Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Two Blu-ray Review

    Although I'd prefer they came quicker, if waiting means a better end product the make it so. I would not be surprised to see three seasons this year though if they are spaced 4 months apart.

    Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Two Blu-ray Review

    I enjoyed S2 a lot more than I anticipated, there are a lot of memorable episodes here. The extended cut of "Measure of a man" was very nice to see. It was also interesting to see actors from series I hadn't recognized before - Mädchen Amick and Carel Struycken (Twin Peaks) and then there's...

    Downton Abbey Series 3 on PBS

    Whatever you do, do NOT google season 4 if you want to avoid major spoilers. I only wanted to see if the show had been renewed, not to find out what I know now.

    Downton Abbey Series 3 on PBS

    I'm liking the start of S3, although there does seem to be a bit more drama than there really needs to be. Anyone know if there's a season 4 planned yet? The Blus are beyond my price at the moment, so the PVR will have to do for now.

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Downton Abbey - Season Two -- in Blu-ray

    I quite enjoyed the two hour premiere of S3, but anyone watching on PBS would be well advised to avoid the next episode preview which is a complete spoiler fest.

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Extended Edition -- in Blu-ray

    I was on the fence about the EEs considering that I hardly ever can set aside 4 hours to watch a movie, but at under $40 it was a no brainer.

    Eight Is Enough Is Finally Happening

    Amazon has season 2 available, but the pricing is still way out to lunch as the overwhelmingly negative reviews point out.

    Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Two Blu-ray Review

    I disagree about the replacement issue, as I doubt it will affect anywhere near as many episodes as the S1 problem did (4 out of 5 discs!) IF the issues are as glaring as they are being made out to be.

    Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Two Blu-ray Review

    I'll be curious to see just how glaring some of these shots look in motion, as the caps don't make them appear all too great. I'm sure if they are glaring enough CBS will offer replacements as they did for S1.

    Criterion Blu-ray titles!

    I got on chat with a service rep who said she couldn't cancel my order. It was placed outside my account (couldn't log on when I ordered due to server issues). Quote: " I understand your concern. However, once an order is authorized we will be unable to cancel the order. As we are unable to...

    Criterion Blu-ray titles!

    I don't think it's harsh at all, this is just pathetic customer service and a really poor order policy in this day and age. I can see there being an issue if the item is in the process of shipping or had already shipped, but what is completely unacceptable is that they won't cancel items/orders...

    Criterion Blu-ray titles!

    Half price sale or not, that is the last time I'm shopping at Barnes & Noble. After placing an order with no confirmation during Sandy, I placed it again the following day. Checking through my emails I find that the first order did get placed - with confirmation 6 days later - and now they...
