The Disclaimer
 

Standard disclaimer: All prices are taken from the websites of each chain, or from their printed Sunday advertisements. All prices are subject to change by each chain. Prices and inventory in-store may or may not match the website price.

I, obviously, cannot include EVERY title released in a given week in the RoundUp. The titles included are those that I am interested in...as well as those which I consider will be of interest to a majority of consumers (and sometimes I’ll miss one!). I don't get paid for this, and I don't have the time to list every DVD. So, please don't complain! If there is a title not included in the RoundUp that you want to see, PLEASE just look it up yourself, and be nice enough to post and share the results with everyone!

Note that I cannot include Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club prices in the RoundUp. They set prices at individual stores based on nearby competition, so there is no way I can say here what price you'll find at YOUR local Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club location. And, Circuit City is still out of business...even in Hawaii (where they NEVER guaranteed their prices anyway).

Thanks for the RoundUp, Mike!


I wonder if Olive Films would have liked the opportunity to change their cover choice for Eight Men out?

Bad timing, to say the least.


Ghost Story, Hurricane, and Devil's Disciple for me this week.

I'm on the fence for Mr. Saturday Night, waiting for a better price.

Thanks for the prices.


DON'T LOOK BACK has been pre-ordered. I'll get GHOST STORY and BLOOD AND LACE whenever they drop in price.

Thank you, Mike! Ricki and the Flash for me, eventually, probably after a price drop. In the meantime I'm saving some money for Friday.

...

Bad timing indeed, but with Charlie Sheen, there's always gonna be something...


A whole lot of 'meh' for me this week. I'll just be grabbing Ikiru and Don't Look Back at my local B&N on Tuesday, and that will end the semi-annual pounding to my wallet known as the Barnes & Noble 50% Off Criterion sale. Only 8 months to the July sale!! :D


Thanks for the RoundUp, Mike!

I always feel bad for this RoundUp every year. It's like the sober, reliable child that is forever doomed to live in the shadow of its impulsive, charismatic, more athletically gifted sibling.

Yet it is still a wonderful life, Adam!

God I love old exploitation posters. "One brain wants to love! One brain wants to kill!"


Best goddamned tagline ever.

Mockingjay Part I, now that it's a more managable price. I want to find Riki and the Flash on Netflix or a streaming service...don't need to own it, just wanna watch it.


Thanks Mike!

Mike,


Thanks, as always, for the RoundUp! I would have missed that Shaun The Sheep was not only cheaper at Target, but that it comes with a bonus Xmas-themed DVD of Shaun The Sheep! (3 episodes from the TV show, one of which includes Xmas, and two others have winter weather.)


2 bucks less than anybody else, and I got extra content.


THANKS THANKS THANKS Thanksgiving to you!!!

Something has gone wrong at Amazon with Eight Men Out. :(


They haven't even shipped yet.

Not yet shipped


Delivery estimate: We need a little more time to provide you with a good estimate. We'll notify you via e-mail as soon as we have an estimated delivery date.

^ Maybe it's just backordered? Due to their size, I can't imagine that Olive is able to engage in the moves that Fox or Warners have done and they would have to deal with any demand that Amazon makes.
