My family and I are heading to Disneyland for the first time this summer--right around the 50th anniversary--and we are desperate for some first-hand accurate information about the hotels outside the park. Can anyone help? Some of the user reviews on Tripadvisor.com have us worried--roaches...

You're welcome, Mike. And thank you for all the work you do on the Weekly Roundup. It's required reading for me each weekend. You and Dave Lambert have saved me hundreds of dollars.

From the Borders web site: 25% off Books and Music 15% off DVDs 50% off Food or Beverage items This deal is apparently good for current or retired teachers. I'm not sure how you prove you're a teacher. Fine Print:

I haven't seen it, but I remember hearing about a movie that was supposed to be about a "virtual" actor. The movie's creators even tried to be mysterious to the public about whether the part in the movie was played by a real woman or was CGI. Is that the movie?

I didn't have a problem with Olivier in the movie. It was a bit part that looked like a tribute to me--a tribute that fit in very well with the overall feel that the movie was attempting to create. It didn't feel any different than seeing a clip of a movie in another movie, It's a lot...

Annakin will bring balance to the source. :b

I picked up Columbo at Costco tonight for $34.99, if anyone's interested.

The world deperately needs a serious, sensitive film of Don Quixote, made with the same care and attention that Jackson gave to LOTR.

I'm anxiously awaiting a video/audio review of this set. Has anyone watched it yet?

This letter is incredibly tough for me because I have several titles that get a lot of repeat play in my house. I am going to go with Eagles: Hell Freezes Over, which edges the others out only because I use it so much as a demo disk when friends come over. Runners-up: ELO: Zoom Tour Live...

Thanks, Gary. If the two are the same I'll go ahead and get the new Best Of DVD, though it's too bad they didn't put more work into these.

Just to be clear, then: if I am only interested in Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein and want the best video and audio quality, should I buy the stand-alone over the new Best of Vol. 3?
