Thanks, Mike and Patrick. More expensive than I thought this week since I didn't realize some of these were due this week:
Lewis Black: Red, White, Screwed (didn't know this was coming out at all) Little Mermaid Penn/Teller: Bullsh*t: Season 3 Return to the Planet of the Apes
Thank You For Smoking will be a "when it hits the 2/$20 sales" for me.
That would be the only selling point of it for me, but since I have bought all the season sets I refuse to pay $18 for that short, when it should've been included as an extra on a season set.
As I already said, I have the discs in-hand from a major online retailer that broke street date and Tuesday's "Apes" release is a 2-disc set of the animated "Return to the Planet of the Apes", which has never been available outside the 14-disc Ape head box set before this release. It is not the 4-disc live-action "Planet of the Apes" that has been available on DVD for five years.
Tuesday's new "Apes" release is all 13 episodes of the animated "Return To..." series in an individual 2-disc release for the first time ever.
Are you sure it's the CE version of the DVD? Because the comic that is described coming with the Target version is Giant X-Men #1 (Which I assume means a reprint of Giant Size X-Men #1). And the comic that comes with the CE version is a 100 page comic that is 3 reprints of Stan Lee's favorite X-Men stories and an all new story by Stan 'The Man' Lee. If anyone can confirm it's the CE, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks. If anyone manages to find out before the release date, please post the info here. I'd love to get the tin set, but I want the new Stan Lee story.
This is the beginning of the killer weeks for me. Little Mermaid Forever Knight Trilogy Part 3 Stargate SG-1 Season 9
I'll take a look at X-men 3 when I'm in the store and make my decision then whether to buy it or wait for a 2-disc edition.
Also going to pickup Midsomer Murders Set 7. I likely order it online since none of the locals (BB, CC and Fye's) carry it. MSRP $49.95 DVDEmpire $59.95 ??!! Amazon has it for $34.99 Deepdiscount $32.49
I have the Original Mermaid, if this release was a Home run I'd pick it up, they gotta Realize with HD Formats emerging Inferior SD Releases won't get My Money. I'm holding Fast that I won't buy a New Release on a SD Format so I'll Rent X-Men 3 and Thank You for Smoking. I'm Interested in the Falcon 3 disker I'll pick that up at some point. The Way new releases show up in 3 for $30 sales I'm in no rush anymore to buy.
Hmmm. I thought October 3rd was the release date for the Warner Horror Legends box set? Has the date been changed, or did I somehow miss it on the front page here?
Thanks as always Mike & Patrick for the Weekly Round-Up.
