Re: Weekly RoundUp 3-4-2008

Thanks for the round-up as always.

Whenever I see "12 Angry Men" I'm reminded of the hilarious SCTV sketch which should have been included here as a bonus. The SCTV version of 12 Angry Men "starred" Charles Nelson Riley, Truman Capote, Richard Simmons, Don Deluise, Rip Taylor and others.

That just sounds hilarious based on your description. I immediately went running to YouTube...but, alas, came up empty.

Sounds like the proverbial "hoot!"

There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!

Re: Weekly RoundUp 3-4-2008

For my fellow HD DVD stragglers, BB's site currently has the high-def versions of Into the Wild and Things We Lost... (as well as last week's Beowulf) listed for just $20.99 each.

I doubt those prices are valid in-store (though I don't know), but in-store pickup should work on them tomorrow (or now for Beowulf).
Does anyone even click on these "My Collection" links?

Here's some "fashionable" zipper pulls:



I kinda feel like "the answer man!"

This Mrs. Doubtfire is the "re-release" of the new version that came out in very limited markets some time ago, correct?

Re: Weekly RoundUp 3-4-2008

I was in Target this morning to pick up 101 (LOVE the zipper clips!) and found the SNL: Lost in the 80's for $14.99 along with the TCM Forbidden Hollywood for $39.99! Kinda surprised that they had it and the price is really good.

If only they'd have a zipper pull promotion in connection with their Market Pantry water...

Eric: Did you notice if your Target carried The Love Boat: Season 1?

I was really surprised that they didn't have either Love Boat or Magnum PI, esp. since I seem to recall seeing previous Magnum sets there before, IIRC.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 3-4-2008

My Target & Wal-Mart didn't have The Love Boat either. That IS surprising.

I got a copy @ Best Buy. I also saw them at FYE.

I did see it at Sam's Club last night, though.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 3-4-2008

It wasn't advertised, but my local Target had a number of newer HD DVDs on sale for $19.99. I didn't think to make a note of which ones, but I did pick up Stardust. Not quite as good as Amazon prices, but a good way to use up any leftover Xmas gift cards.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 3-4-2008

Best use those cards up. I heard that companies, like Sharper Image, going bankrupt will not let yuo use the cards. That is lost money to the cardholder.

And the reason I asked about MRS DOUBTFIRE was I got this, courtesy of one of our own HTF'ers, abck when the limited release was out. Glad I got it then.

BTW, what exactly was the reason for the limited release, pull back of product, then much later releasing it widespread?
