Weekly RoundUp 4-17-2018

 

[Mike Frezon]

Another big week. A nice mix of new releases and catalog releases.

Have fun! And, safe shopping!

 

[TravisR]

I'll be picking up The Post this week.

Thanks for the prices, Mike!

 

[Rodney]

Finally getting The Egg and I after the TCM fake-out back in 2015. Cannot wait!
Also pre-ordered:

• The List of Adrian Messenger
• Singing Guns
• Trigger, Jr.

I am intrigued by this release...but not having seen it, I'm not really sure what to expect. Probably what intrigues me most is the pairing of MacMurray and Colbert.

The Awful Truth is on my list for the next Criterion sale (it's kind of a long list right now, too). And I'll probably pick up The Post somewhere down the line...but I can certainly wait until there is some serious price drop.

 

[Jake Lipson]

Thank you, Mike!

Nothing for me this week.

 

[Matt Hough]

In addition to most of the featured poster releases this week, I will also want to add The Thrill of It All, The List of Adrian Messenger, and Les Girls. BIG week for me.

Thanks, Mike!

 

[Malcolm R]

Killjoys S3 when there's a future price drop. $35 for 10 episodes ain't happenin'.

 

[Mike Frezon]

Anyone interested should know that the Blu of Ken Burns' Civil War is on sale for $40.99 at Amazon right now.

 

[Robert Crawford]

There are eight titles alone this week that I want in my collection. Some of them I'll get this week, but others I'll wait for a reasonable price.

The Awful Truth
The Egg and I
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Les Girls
The List of Adrian Messenger
No Down Payment
The Post (4K/UHD)
The Thrill of it All

 

[Jesse Skeen]

Do NOT buy Camp Nowhere- the sound is STILL in mono, as it was on the Mill Creek Blu-Ray. How in the world do these things happen?

 

[Jason_V]

I always end up finding 2 movies in a three movie deal I wouldn't mind having. BB's Universal UHD sale is an example.I wouldn't mind getting both King Kong and ET...but no third is jumping out at me. The WB 3/$50 UHD sale is another...Inception and Kong...I can maybe see Pacific Rim? But it doesn't excite me.

Thanks Mike!

 

[Jason_V]

I should also mention Cartwheel has 25% off all versions of Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. Expiration date is April 21. Prices look to be $19.99/$22.99/$29.99.

 

[Richard V]

No Down Payment
The List of Adrian Messenger
Blue Denim
and possibly
Aloha Bobby and Rose for me

The Awful Truth is one of my and my wife's favorite screwball comedies, but I've already bought it in VHS and DVD. The Columbia DVD has an excellent picture, and a lot of extras, so it's probably not worth getting the Criterion edition if you have the prior Columbia release.

I, for one, am a bit tired of re-buying the same releases for minimal improvements.

Still, If you don't have The Awful Truth in your collection; it's a keeper!

Thanks, Mike! I was waiting for a good deal like this to replace my DVD set. Ordered.

That's funny. The DVD I have of The Awful Truth has a dirty and somewhat damaged transfer. Did they do a later one that cleaned and repaired the earlier release? One of the things I'm most looking forward to is Criterion's transfer which I expect to be a pretty huge improvement to what I currently have.

Me too, Wayne!

 

[Hank_P]

Thanks Mike, I may have a week of no purchases!!
