When will it end…$50 for a movie!

This is standard practice. The film JUST hit theaters. Nobody is going to end up paying $50 for Black Adam. It will be FAR less than that on street date, probably $24.99-$27.99.

When will it end…$50 for a movie!

This is the way it has worked for years. Amazon puts up an exorbitant preorder price and it drops substantially by release day.

Obviously you were never a Laserdisc collector !

 

[Ronald Epstein]

Obviously you were never a Laserdisc collector !

Or early VHS collector where movies sold at $80 a pop and that was during the late 70s/early 80s

 

[Sam Posten]

The movie itself was meh. But this is likely to be the best atmos and hdr demo material ever if the Dolby cinema screening Carries over to the home.

 

[John Sparks]

Obviously you were never a Laserdisc collector !

My wife just reminded me of that exact thing!

Had over 500 at one count. Made a killing when I sold them.

I have Criterion's ROBINSON CRUSOE ON MARS cover (signed by Paul Mantee while at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood) and WAR OF THE WORLDS cover (Signed by Anne Robinson while at the Egyptain Theater in Hollywood) both framed and on the wall next to my home theater.

Good times.

Black Adam UHD Review

"Black Adam" was considered a box office disappointment for Warner Bros, and after viewing the 4K UHD Blu-ray release, one can see why.

Or early VHS collector where movies sold at $80 a pop and that was during the late 70s/early 80s

Early VHS days were when the studios were trying to gouge the video rental stores, and didn't care very much about developing the home video market. Home movie fans were basically a casualty then.
