    DVD Profiler 3.1 is out

    The site URL now points to some other company, and I can't connect via the program. Is this just some kind of domain server hiccup? Bob

    Weekly RoundUp 11-13-2007

    Good one, Tony, and thanks. I was just really spun up last night! Needed to let off some steam. Bob

    Weekly RoundUp 11-13-2007

    FYI, just thought I'd update everyone on my Smallville "adventure" tonight! :) I went to Best Buy tonight and tried to get seasons 5 and 6 at $14.99. The more I thought about it, the more obvious it seemed that they should honor their ad, since the English (in BIG letters) was plain enough...

    Weekly RoundUp 11-13-2007

    FYI, my Best Buy ad clearly said ALL seasons of Smallville were $14.99. So I guess that covers season 6, as well! Lots to pick up this week, for the same reason as Mary, stuff I had back-burnered is now cheap enough. (Just what I need, this and the DDD/DVDP sales to hit at the same time!) :-) Bob

    Weekly RoundUp 11-6-2007

    Just wanted to mention that when I was browsing the isles in Best Buy tonight, I noticed that they had the complex Six Feet Under set for around $169 on sale. Wish I had a lump sum to pick it up, but I guess it'll have to wait (sigh!) Bob

    Regarding the new Bram Stokers Dracula CE.

    I just watched the film again for the first time in years, and loved it. Loved the picture, loved the sound, loved the extras! However.... When I got to chapter 17, the film froze up and the screen pixelated. Actually, "almost froze" would be more accurate, because every minute or so, it...

    Thanks for the extra info. Guess I'll have to wait for another good sale (couldn't find any in stock in my area)! Bob

    400 Gig External H.D. At Staples

    Thanks for the heads up! Except.... I may be thick, but I can't figure out how to order the #$&!@ thing! The site that's linked doesn't have a "shopping cart" and checkout process. The best I can manage is to print a "shopping list" I can take to the store with me. (??) (My local Staples...

    $10 off $30 @ Buy.com with Google Checkout

    Works for DVDEmpire, as well, but I like using it at Buy.com because you only have to buy one disc over $25 to get free shipping. Anyway, I picked up Seven Samurai for $22.99 and Equinox (about the same) on two separate orders. Great stuff! Thanks, Bob

    Weekly RoundUp 2-28-2006

    Thanks for the roundup, Mike! Sign me up, Steve! :D Lady and the Tramp, Ice Harvest and Controversial Classics for me this week. Also, I got a coupon in the mail for 10,000 BB Bonus points if I spend $25 or more by March 3. Since I'll be getting none of the above titles from BB, I guess...

    We knew it was coming: A new trend in standard vs SE pricing?

    I have to say, I'm totally with Chris F. and Nathan on this one. This is one of the most annoying and frustrating trends I've seen from studios. It's a blatant attempt at a cash-grab, cutting SE margins and thereby raising SE retail prices from $15-16 to $20-24. It's the reason I still don't own...

    Weekly RoundUp 2-21-2006

    Thanks as always for the weekly Roundup! Checking it is one of the first things I do every Sunday. FYI, I took my Circuit City flier into BB this week, expecting to price match Stuart Little 3, but then I saw it was $12.99 in the BB ad! :emoji_thumbsup: This was in Salem, NH. YMMV. Good...

    "The Flash" - A Worthy Blind Buy?

    Boy, am I bummed. I couldn't even start the pilot episode! In one of my PCs, the disc menu wouldn't even load (lots of clicking, no activity on screen), and in my laptop, I got the menu, but couldn't get past that to play an episode. Sigh! I was really looking forward to watching the pilot...

    Weekly RoundUp 7/6/04

    Justin, what's this about an Uzumaki SE?? Are you going to try B&M's for this, or online? It seems unlikely that you'd find that in one of the mainline stores, but if you do, please let me know. I have a R3 (I think) copy of it, but I'd be interested in an R1 one if it's available. Thanks...

    Deep Discount 20% off ACTUAL SUMMER SALE NOW ON.

    Joel, I received several shipping confirmations around the same time as you did, and so far, nothing has arrived yet. Now I'm sorry for the post I made earlier (either in this thread or in another forum) about how reliable DDD's arrival times were (for the last 6-9 months, my order has always...

    Deep Discount 20% off ACTUAL SUMMER SALE NOW ON.

    Yeah, Alan, I was thinking the same thing. It's the end of the quarter, and the end of the first half of the year, important milestones. If they need to show growth in sales, good movement of their inventory, etc., this sale would definitely help. Lucky for all of us, if the sale they had...

    Deep Discount 20% off ACTUAL SUMMER SALE NOW ON.

    Judging from a quick glance at the e-mails I got today, all of my non-backordered items (at least) have shipped! They've clearly done well at scaling to meet this surge in demand. :emoji_thumbsup: Here's my list: :D LONE WOLF & CUB-BABY CART IN $12.95 In-stock RETURN TO OZ $11.04...

    Weekly RoundUp 6/22/04

    Quick follow-up to what DanielCo said: The DDD sale will still be good on Tuesday, when they generally drop their prices on new releases to match or do better than the Best Buys of the world. So, save one of those coupon codes, and use it on Tuesday to get an even better price on Bad(der) Santa...

    "Pirates of Silicon Valley" on DVD?

    Same here!!! This would be great to have on DVD (loved the performances of the two leads, and other supporting characters), and if it's not a bare-bones release, just think of the extras it could have!! Some pretty interesting potential there. BTW, since this was a made-for-TV movie, does it...

    "Breakfast with Hunter" (Hunter S Thompson) SE DVD

    Exclusive to what site? I read your whole post, and I still can't tell where to buy the thing. Am I missing something obvious? Please let me know where I can purchase this. Thanks, - BP

    Weekly RoundUp 5/25/04

    Bolivar (and others), if you can hold out on Underworld, there's no way it can support that price for long. I'm guessing we'll see a pretty significant price drop on that title in the future. I'll even go out on a limb and predict that it will be cheaper (or offered as a combo deal with some...

    Decisions, decisions.... ;) Where to get Miracle this week? I think I'm going to go with Miracle + RtT at Target, and also pick up Do You Believe in Miracles + Rudy there as well for $15. Of course, GE + GBU at Best Buy is a definite buy. I'll be there when they open! Around the World in...

    Top 5 Most Wanted DVD's!

    Great suggestions! Fun thread. Thanks. Nice to see Phase IV (the ant movie, not the other one with the same title that was recently released) and Monster Squad and The Rapture mentioned! Those have been on my list for awhile. Discs I'd also like to see (trying not to be redundant or list...
