-Airplane:SE

Thanks you very much Mike and Patrick for the prices.

Patrick Circuit City should let you buy Finding Neverland for 10 bucks. When they price these 2 for $20 titles, they just drop them down to $9.99 each in the system. At least that has been my experience in the past.

 

[Keith Mickunas]

Is there anything new or different in Deathrace 2000 and Rock 'n Roll High School from previous releases? I know that Rock 'n Roll High School has been repacked and released a few times, but I don't think any of those were different than the first released back in '97.

 

[Christopher_H]

Thanks again for the update.

Picking up Simpsons season 7, Sin City, and 40-year old virgin.

 

[TonyD]

hm i noticed the new thread and ppost reply button looks like the upgrade version.

anyway.

just simpsons, airplane and 40 year old this week.

 

[Paul_Nyman]

Costco had 3 cartons of Airplane: Don't Call Me Shirley Ed. DVD's out already. I didn't see 40 Year Old Virgin anywhere. I went to checkout with Airplane they scanned and rang it up and the register stopped. Manager said register wouldn't complete the checkout as it could not be sold till Tuesday. I told the manager to go over to the DVD's and see all the copies they had on the floor!

 

[Mike.P]

Went to best buy today, for the first time in my experience they dropped their 2 for 20's to only 10 dollars each, as opposed to the usual style of pricing them at 10 dollars only after purchasing 2 on the same receipt.

Picked up O Brother, Where Art Thou? and True Romance. May have to get Boogie Nights while its at the 12.99 price point, and possibly the Gone with the Wind set for 16.99. I had a ton in my hands on the way to the register, but it all strangley got wittled down .

 

[Carlo_M]

Wow, after many weeks of very light buying, this one makes up for a lot:

Simpsons 7
Sin City
40 YO Virgin
Airplane

are definites, with The Island on the cusp...

 

[MatS]

I already own it (and love it) but it is worth mentioning that is an extra awesome price on The Office (US) Season 1 at CC

good cross marketing with 40YOV

 

[Mark Zimmer]

Looks like just Sin City for me; I skipped the initial release on the assumption this SE would be coming.

 

[John Gido]

Does that mean that you can purchase only one title for $10? I'm really only interested in one.

Looks like only "Rock 'N' Roll High School" for me this week. Gabba Gabba Hey!

 

[Patrick Sun]

I'm guessing with Christmas around the corner, and people buying stuff to give as gifts, the returns of these 2 for $20 DVDs would work better as $10 items, otherwise, it would make returns/exchanges a real bear if you have a receipt (returning one of the two means the kept item goes back to the full $14.99 price, and the remainder credit would be $5.01 plus tax).

 

[Jason_V]

Just The Simpsons. I've still got a backlog of things to watch going back all the way to Batman Begins.

Thanks guys, btw!!

 

[Ken Chui]

Another expensive week for me:

Gilmore Girls Season 5
Simpsons Season 7
Sin City: Recut & Extended
The 40 Year Old Virgin (Unrated)

That's it for me for the rest of the year. Whew!

 

[Mike.P]

Yep, it does mean that. I only picked up one this week myself, not sure if it is on a store to store basis but the one I've gone to down here was doing it the way I mentioned.

 

[Gabe D]

According to the back covers, both are anamorphic widescreen.

 

[ChristopherDM]

For you Godzilla fans out there, went to Walmart on my break and they had Final Wars for 9.84!!!!

Cheers Chris

 

[Dave Scarpa]

Seems like Walmart is wildly inconsistant with their prices, I got mine at Amazon for $17, I wonder if my walmart would be the same

 

[John Gido]

This must be a YMMV issue. I just got back from the Totawa, NJ store on my lunch hour and was told I could only purchase the 2 for $20 DVDs in pairs. :frowning:

I seem to have more trouble with this store, maybe I should try another.
