Nothing this week; I'll wait for HD editions of Cloverfield and Charlie Wilson's War, as much as I'd rather not.

I just got back from the Costco here in Huntsville, AL, and they had twin packs of all the Universal Cinema Classics titles. The other three are:
Scarface/No Man of Her Own
All Quiet on the Western Front/So Proudly We Hail!
Arabian Nights/Unconquered

I wonder what their saturation is compared to the Best Buy, Circuit City and Targets of this world? 
I know TransWorld is based here in the NorthEast...I just don't know how far their reach is across the country. |

They claim to be "nationwide," but I guess that means they have stores in both New York and California since they only have locations in about half the states in-between.

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 4-22-2008
Somehow I missed jumping in here on Sunday while on vacation.
Lemme see...already grabbed X3 from Best Buy and T3 from Target (replacement coming). Stopping at Circuit City tonight to snag Phantom, Training Day and possibly Goodfellas. Thought about Mr. and Mrs. Smith, too...maybe by Saturday...
Thanks, as always, guys for keepingthe economy going here in Detroit.

That reminds me. I've got to see if I can snag an ID4 BD from Target before the week's out.

I sure will. But, unfortunately Ric, I suspect it will be awhile before I can set aside the time I need (as recommended by Dennis) to watch this film.
In the meantime, guessing that they are reacting to this week's sale at Circuit City, amazon has lowered the price on the 5-disc Blade Runner set to just $19.95.
Doubt this will last long.
CC's sale ends Saturday.

^ Hehe, got mine from Amazon last week in the B2G1 sale. Maybe I have a little price match coming my way...?
