Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
I have POTC and Superbad Blu Ray coming from Amazon. I'm gonna hold off on Razor till it hits a Hi Def version. I went 5 seasons getting 24 Box set and I have watched none, I think the nature of the show prohibits me rewatching it, and if I wanted to watch an entire season again I can always Netflix it. I'll start Getting Galactica Seasons in Hi Def with S3, maybe I'll Double Dip the older seasons at some point down the road when I can pick it up cheap.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
When BB gave away Fezzik t-shirts with Princess Bride, there were different sizes. I saw the DVD packaged with both L and XL shirts.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
You've given me hope! I really want a Superbad t-shirt, how silly is that?

Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
Not to be nitpicky, but 12 Angry Men is not a John Ford film. It was directed by Sidney Lumet. Anyway, here's hoping that they do a 16:9 transfer one day. Not that the current dvd is bad, but having a Widescreen tv, it would be nice to get the optimum resolution and best picture quality possible.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
I have been trying to avoid SD DVD purchases, but I broke down and picked up the 2-disc Serenity SE at Best Buy for $8.99 because of the commentary track (Joss and 4 others from the cast, I think Nate, Adam, Ron and Jewel), and the additional hour of stuff on the 2nd DVD.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
Just a quick heads-up for the Best Buy PotC:AWE Bonus disc... I went in and immediately found the huge cardboard display chock-full of Pirates. Nothing stood out as any containing a bonus disc. I looked in the new release section. Again, nothing. No extra stickers or anything. I went back to the display and asked the Blue-Shirt. He looked at the display, looked at the sign with the prices, then picked up the 2-disc edition and said "this must be the one with the extra disc." I went back to the New Release aisle and began to search through the discs for one with any indication of a bonus disc. Then I saw it. On the bottom shelf. A row of cardboard disc-sleeves. Pirates Bonus Discs. Each priced with a price sticker for $9.99. (That's why I think I didn't spot them right away.) It did ring up as free when I checked out though.
So make sure that you find the stack of bonus discs, whereever they may be.

Thanks for the heads-up.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
Yes, thanks Jimmy! Excellent report!
This is another of those confusing weeks for me as I will be buying two copies: one SD, one BD--both with bonus discs. I've got deposits on both. And, an RZ certificate. Not nearly as confusing as my Ratatouille experience, but I'm still gonna have to be on my toes!
Oh, yeah...and then there's W&G: S7.
Oh...and 24: S6 (which I was kinda on the fence about) with that $10 coupon from the season premiere release.
=======================
BTW, I'd love to hear from anyone who gets to a CC about that deal with 24: Season 6 and whatever...
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!

I picked up my copy today and to make things more confusing, there's no size info on the package or even on the tag of the shirt. I'm tall and I'm about 20 or more pounds overweight so I normally wear an XL and this shirt fits my gut but it's too short on me. Usually a shirt is too short for me when it's a Large.
Long story short, I think the Superbad shirt is a Large.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 12-4-2007
That's a bummer. I picked up 2 of them, but may end up returning one of them (don't think a L is going to fit them...at all).
