Re: Weekly RoundUp 8-26-2008

The Stooges V3 has arrived finally! My first pickup Tuesday. Wally World has been good getting these out on release day, so I will hit them first.

"Waiter, I'd like some water."
"Just turn on anything! You'll get it!"

I'm really wavering on the Heroes: Season 2 DVD set. I have Season 1 on HD DVD, so the BD version would go nicely with it, but the price for a 1/2 season is a bit off-putting. Maybe I will wait....anything on the BD version that is not on the standard DVD set?

Thanks as always for the round-up, Mike!

Re: Weekly RoundUp 8-26-2008

I'm interested in getting Heroes: Season 2, Legend of the Lone Ranger and Nightmare Before Christmas. I hope Wal-mart doesn't charge as much for Heroes as they did for Prison Break ($40), even $25 is a bit much for basically half a season of episodes. I'm thinking of just waiting for the prices to come down.

Speaking of Stooges I feel like one myself, I took a trip all the way to BB to pick up Friends season 4 only to find out when I got there that the sale doesn't start until tomorrow...DOH!

Hey Mike...where is Begas, exactly? We're looking for a new vacation spot and I've never heard of it. If I haven't, chances are the other tourists haven't either.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 8-26-2008

I underestimated the popularity of the Heroes BD set. Didn't go to any stores yesterday. Today I went to BB, CC and Target and they were all sold out. Got a rain check at Target for the sale price, but it's a pain to keep calling.

I did get the Stooges V3 though! Woo hoo!

Re: Weekly RoundUp 8-26-2008

Tower.com has Dark City bluray down to $10.99 today. You need to bring the bill up to $25 to get free shipping. So I got Mission Impossible 3 on bluray for $16.99. $28 total, or I like to think of it as "$14 each".

Yay.

Here's the link to all of Tower's blurays:

Batman Begins on bluray is down to $15.86 but I'm waiting in the hope that the studio will release a nice Batman Begins & Batman Dark Knight box.

Re: Weekly RoundUp 8-26-2008

Has anybody had any trouble finding the Target-exclusive HEROES S2 set? I haven't been able to get to Target yet this week, and I'm hoping they're not all sold out by now....

Re: Weekly RoundUp 8-26-2008

Will, thanks for the Dark City tip! (Strangely, it's been Unavailable at Amazon for a few days now.)

They also had a very nice price on the BD edition of Wild China ($22.99) to get over that $25 hump.

John: I am not sure how many Target stores there are in your area, but if there's more than one, I suggest asking for someone in the store to do an "item location lookup". It shows availability of a specific item in other stores...you can do it by "stores within 20 miles" or check a specific city or state. Be aware, however, that the system does NOT update during the day (unless they changed it in the past two years), but it can give you help in locating a copy. And remember, your raincheck is good for 90 days. (Unless that changed!)

Eric,

It's just to the east of Ruta.
