Although i don't think it's 2-discs. I think that should probably be side A/side B, not disc 1/disc 2. Definitely a steal at BB's asking price of $9.99 IMO. And DeepDiscountDVD should have it at $9.89 shipped, tax-free (unless you live in IL) to beat BB's price, if history stays true here. And for any Muppet fans, they're featured prominently on the video for "Keep Fishin'" (track 12 on the disc).
Scott_J: Thanks for the info on the Weezer DVD! You say you don't think it's all their videos, but remember: they've only had 4 albums and the best one, 'Pinkerton', only had one real video ("El Scorcho") made for it. So this actually is all of their official videos plus some I never knew existed, plus a ton of extra footage. Sounds like a definite future purchase for me.
The "Buddy Holly" video made my parents into Weezer fans, but I remember seeing this band that no one had ever heard of with an MTV 'Buzz Clip' video called "Undone (The Sweater Song)". They were tearing up the place in that video, especially drummer Pat Wilson. I bought the CD (hard to find at the time; now it carries that "The Nice Price" sticker on it!) and the rest is history. The "Keep Fishin'" video with The Muppets was another instant classic!
Looks like I may hit the 2/$20 special with My Big Fat Greek Wedding and either The Green Mile or Blue Collar Comedy Tour though none of those are must haves.
The reviews online are indicating that Ransom is indeed a very shoddy looking non-anamorphic transfer. IGN DVD said it was awful, and it also gets a mention in DVD File's review of the new Splash SE.
Bryan: to each his own, but I put a for The Green Mile.
I think Best Buy has really hit on a nice new promotion with these 2/$15 and 2/$20 (even 2/$30) deals they've had the past few weeks. I've picked up quite a few things there in recent weeks taking advantage of those deals.
I'm sort of interested in the Weezer release. I really love the Blue album, and their videos are real masterworks. But I haven't sold myself on owning a music video collection. Would be a new avenue for me. Hmmmm...choices, choices.
When is the Genesis Wembley concert from? Amazon has NO info other than a running time of 161 minutes. I have a twinkle of hope that it's really old, but a sinking feeling that it's from the height of the Phil Collins top-40 era. . .

I picked up the Harry Connick, Jr. DVD tonight at FYE. This was a convenience issue for me because I knew it was cheaper at both BB & CC. And my trips out are limited this week due to the health issues. Anyway, just FYI to anyone who might want to know, Connick at FYE is ringing up on sale for $12.99 (Reg. price $14.99).
