I went and snapped up a quartet of the Target copies last night while they were on sale for $13 (Christmas gifts, not ebay items :)). I couldn't believe how much Target's price was for the single-disc set: $40! Are they serious?? Does anyone know if a 2-disc might be released sometime down the...

If that Blu-ray transfer was indeed new and approved by Ridley Scott himself, then I would like to offer the phone number of my optometrist to Sir Ridley.

According to Deadline Hollywood, "G.I. Joe" dropped 18% on Saturday. Never a good sign. Edit: that should be "16%", not 18. Edited by Shawn.F - 8/9/2009 at 04:13 pm GMT

Nothing for me this week, which is good since I just picked up the BSG set.

To quote Borat in regards to the lovely ladies posted...wa wa wee wa! :) BSG this week for me, along with The Wrestler. Tempted on Benjamin Button. $15 is a nice price on any Criterion Blu-ray.

Looks like I'll be holding off until the BSG BD set until the 28th. As always, many thanks for the roundup!

D'oh! ;)

Actually, I have a better idea. Bay and Spielberg could take that ticket money and spend it on grammar lessons for the legions of people who have clogged forums since Wednesday defending Bay and the film. While this doesn't apply to everyone who has done so, some of the grammar use and spelling...

Actually, I think he meant 'jump' from last Friday. According to Box Office Mojo, 'Away We Go' did $249,185 the previous Friday. It doubled its screen run yesterday.

Children of Men, Seabiscuit and Field of Dreams for me.

One of the many things I hate about Comcast, and there are many, is that I have to subscribe to the non-HD channels in order to get their flimsy HD selection (they haven't added a new HD channel in my area in months). As for the digital cable box being forced on subscribers, I hope it will...

I would say that Night at the Museum 2 will take the Box office next weekend. It's the only new family film in town (until 'Up' arrives). Terminator: Salvation will do fine, but not enough to be on the top spot. I'd say $80 mil for the holiday weekend on Night at the Museum 2 and $50 for...

Certainly deserves to hit $200 mil domestically. Here's hoping it has legs.

The studios would still only use about 2/3 the space. ;) In regards to compression artifacts, 50gigs should be more than enough to eliminate that issue.
