The third was $32.99?!?! :confused: THAT just doesn't make sense.

The one Target I was in tonight had the first three Die Hards on Blu-ray (but only two copies apiece). All three were marked $29.99 (regular price).

My guess would be if you took it to the register it would have rung up at the correct price ($62.99). But $99.99 seems high all the way around--higher, in fact, than the MSRP of $89.99. :eek:

Stopped into Target this afternoon (Black Friday) and still no Blu-ray versions of Live Free or Die Hard. :angry: :angry: :angry:

They had rain checks...but it's not like $29.99 is a sale price. :rolleyes

There was still a bunch of Black Friday DVDs on sale...But, for the most part, they were full screen. :thumbsdown:

Makes me glad I didn't stop in there today for a couple of their cheap DVDs. I figured it wasn't worth it for a couple $4 DVDs (especially if they're mainly FS).

By now I suspect anyone who's interested in this disc has already secured a copy, but just in case:

The new Paramount disc is indeed a 16:9-enhanced remaster and a meaningful improvement over the old HBO presentation. The bad news is that it omits the trailer, which had some clever editing and did a good job of showcasing the film without giving away everything. The Paramount reissue is so barebones that it doesn't even have a chapter listing (although it is chaptered).

If nothing else, the film is memorable for being the first major role for Charlize Theron. She's surrounded by familiar faces: Danny Aiello, James Spader, Teri Hatcher, Marsha Mason, Paul Mazursky, Glenn Headley, Jeff Daniels, Eric Stolz, Keith Carradine. But at the end of the movie, I was scouring the credits asking, "Who the hell was that?" A movie star right from the beginning. As much as she's grown in the last dozen years, her performance in this film still packs a wallop (literally; see the film and you'll understand).
