    Is there going to be a 50% off Criterion sale at Barnes and Noble soon?

    I thought I saw on another website that it is scheduled to run from 7/10 - 7/31 Here is the link. Not sure how trustworthy the info is, but FWIW: http://slickdeals.net/f/4853542-Barnes-and-Noble-Criterion-Blu-ray-Collection-50-Off-07-10-07-30

    Weekly RoundUp 2-7-2012

    My Target did have the 3-disc Lady and the Tramp blu ray for $27.99. In fact, it appeared they had just as many 3-disc as 2-disc. With the upgrade coupon from Disney the price of the 3-disc was the same as the 2-disc ($27.99 - $8 coupon vs. $24.99 - $5 coupon).

    Blu-ray Review HTF Blu-ray Review: THE GHOST WRITER

      Michael, Just a couple of minor quibbles about your review: 1. I didn't get the impression that McAra was a former aide to Lang, just the ghost writer assigned to do his memoirs. 2. McAra wasn't just helping Lang to write his memoirs, he was the one doing the writing. 3. George...

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ North by Northwest -- in Blu-ray

    Extremely stoked to get North By Northwest on BluRay. Only disappointment is that there is no new commentary. The current commentary with Ernest Lehman leaves a little bit to be desired. This hardly tempers my enthusiasm, though.

    PHE Press Release: Braveheart * Gladiator * Forrest Gump (Sapphire Series Blu-ray)

    For some reason, my Best Buy had the Braveheart discs on the shelves already. I noticed they had a $10 mail-in rebate for current owners of the Special Edition DVD. Maybe that'll take some of the sting out. ;-)

    Farrah Fawcett in Sunburn - Why no DVD?

    With Farrah Fawcett's passing, I went to add Sunburn to my Netflix queue and found that it, as far as I can tell, has never been released on DVD. Anyone have any idea why not? Thanks. Edited by Scott Shanks - 7/4/2009 at 11:27 am GMT

    Hitchcock on Blu-ray?

    Watching "To Catch A Thief" on HDNet Movies. I am certainly no expert on how films should look, but to my eyes, this looked FANTASTIC! Can't wait for the BD.

    Silly Best Buy price match "Policy"?

    This happened to me recently when I got BB to price match an HP printer. The salesperson called CC to see if they had it in stock before she would honor the price match. I was similarly irritated while waiting until I actually read the huge sign you mentioned. The policy states they will match...

    65" DLP 1080P TV with best picture quality?

    Samsung's 2008 LEDs start at 61". They don't make an LED DLP in a 56". Samsung makes a bulb DLP 56" - not LED. Good luck. Samsung is also coming out with a 67" LED DLP in June of 2008.
