Weekly RoundUp 9-11-2007 (1 Viewer)

[Jason Seaver]

The Alien Nation TV-movies at Best Buy. Really, not much coming out this month.

I ordered the Fly Collection from Amazon but forgot about Tom and Jerry and the Addams family were coming out this week, will pick them up at a later date. I'll pick The Classic Sci-Fi Ultimate Collection Volume 2 up from Amazon like I did with volume 1, as long as BB only has a limited time exclusiveness on it like before.

 

[FranklinC]

FYI... At least according to the ad in my area, Pale Rider, not TOJW, is $4.99 at CC this week. Shame cause I went to CC hoping to finally add that one to my collection. Oh, well.

 

[Mark Zimmer]

Are those Midnite Movie single-disc releases BB exclusives again?

 

[Mike Frezon]

Mark: I was hoping Jack was going to weigh in with some of that info. But I guess not.

I can tell you that Witchfinder General is listed @ Amazon for $9.99 and at least one of the two-fers (Tales from the Crypt/Vault of Horror) is listed on amazon for $11.19.

[EDIT**: Each of those titles is also listed for $12.99 apiece @ BOTH bb.com AND cc.com.]

Hope that helps. I'm sure you can extrapolate those prices over the rest of the titles at the three retailers. Short answer: It looks like no BB exclusivity.

I think the reason for the price difference is that I don't think the bonus DVD that is included in the store version, will be available for online orders. But I guess BB will be still charging $19.99 if they run out of the bonus DVDs.

You mean Zoe? "Girlfriend" is pushing it. . .

Bestbuy.com has The Graduate: 40th Anniversary Edition for $14.99.

 

[Dustin James]

My local Best Buy brick'n'mortar store had The Graduate with the bonus Simon & Garfunkel Concert in Central Park DVD for $14.99 even though our local print ad also said $19.99.

BTW, the second disc included (third if you are counting the Central Park DVD) is a CD soundtrack sampler -- it only includes 4 tracks: The Sound of Silence; Mrs. Robinson; Scarbourough Fair/Canticle; April Come She Will.

The soundtrack sampler is not exclusive to Best Buy (but the packaging does note that the CD is "While supplies last. Specially marked packages only.").

 

[EricSchulz]

Has anyone seen the price on the BB Ultimate Sci-Fi Collection yet?
Will pick up The Fly Collection at some point, but not sure if it will be this week.

 

[pitchman]

I went to BB, CC, FYE and Sam's Club today and NOBODY had this or the Vincent Price collection in stock. What's up with that?? It seems like there are a lot of key genre releases this week and for whatever reason, the b&m's do not appear to be carrying them. Very strange IMO...

 

[Mike Frezon]

Thanks, Dustin. That was also being reported in The Graduate thread over in Software...but I (above anyone) should have known to check here FIRST for confirmation!

I was in a local Wal-Mart tonight and they were asking $19.99 for The Graduate (film only + the 4-song CD). Usually my local store price adjusts based on flyer prices. I guess they opted not to this week.
